Walked into my local gunstore and was just browsing when this orange and black box leaped out at me from the shadows,
i opened it and took a quick look inside and grabbed it ,ran to the counter and asked if the price was correct when the answer was yes i paid the $35 then promptly ran out the door.
The 45 is practically new, it came with original instruction sheet and 5 H&I's all with top punches,,, wrench, allen key ,even 4 mounting screws, and three boxes of older Lyman gas checks (unopened), the g/c boxes have a $1 price sticker on em ,,, 3K checks for $3 ,,outstanding value :-P.
now i have three 45's,,,,,,,,I had a good day i think...... [smilie=w:

every time I read a thread on this site, I learn more about what I do NOT know, I'm not sure if that should make me laugh or cry :D

morning.
i'm still trying to figure out how i could be so lucky to find a deal like this ,that's why i asked if the price was right on the box ,maybe a type-o ,should say $75 because of all the 'extras" .
The owner said when i took it to the counter "ain't that a neat little doohicky" , i told him i had two already but neither one was in this kind of condition and yes they are very neat,
i asked about the g/c's and he said yup a dollar a box .
now were up to a whopping $38 and i'm ready to hit the road running before he wakes up and gets his price gun out again.
As for the dies, as of now i can use 3 out of the five, :-D
The g/c look like copper , i was expecting brass.:twisted:

You stole it.

You must do penance by buying guns to match the two unused dies.

I'll bet that hasn't stopped you before! When she asks about the money, just make sure you explain that you're spending part if it on her! Dinner, flowers, etc. Or just say "I'm sorry" a whole lot until she gets sick of hearing it an just wants you go away! :shock:

Nice deal... They are out there!


Last winter I bought a 1200.oo dillon shotshell press for 250.00 from an out of state auction , paid the 50.00 shipping and was surprised to find a lyman 450 lubrisizer in the box... It came with the "lot" :holysheep

Both units are in real clean condition!
