Ok...so I was at my wife's boss's house with her tonight (They work out of his house) and while helping her fix the printer I stumbled across 2 long guns in a closet. One was some kind of Japanese or Chinese bolt action rifle with no real markings on it (bore looked close to a .22lr, chamber was sized for something along a .223) and the other was a Remington model 48 in 12 gauge. Neither looked like they've been shot in decades.
Anyway, I think if I find the right way to approach it, I might be able to score both of these for a song....I know the guy doesn't hunt or shoot, and the guns are obviously not for home defense (YES, I cleared both before handling any further (both were empty), and there was no ammo nearby.) Also the dust and spot rust on them leads me to believe he has no real interest in them.
I looked on Gunbroker and saw one giong for $250 (no reserve) so I assume that this isn't a much sought after shotgun. Does anybody have any experience with this shotgun?
