When I checked them in the buyer started drooling over the Winchester 61. I might sell it to him privately. I’m hoping to at least break even on it.

What is really surprising is what I’m getting for my milsurps. The Enfields and Nagants brought far more than what I was expecting. I lost money on the 9130 PU sniper but more than made up for it on the others. Today I brought in two K-31’s and now have high expectations. The other six were levers (no Henrys) and shotguns.

I’ll have my answer in about two hours.

I lost a little money on the two Winchesters, made about 300% on the K-31’s and broke even on the rest. I haven’t owned the Winnies all that long. I’m at the age where time is more important than money. I can spent my time selling and make a few bucks more or I can sell them fast for less and spend the time remodeling instead of spending money on labor.

I’ll add these to my spreadsheet when I get home to confirm.

It’s a sunny 61 degrees and I’m sitting here waiting to be paid. I should be plinking in the backyard.

Yes, you should be. Finished putting together an exercise bike thingy for my wife, now I'm having a couple hotdogs and a beer or two for a late lunch and shooting my Red Rider at empty cans in back yard. Retirement is a wonderful thing I tell ya! ;)

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I’m home and plugged the numbers into the spreadsheet. I’m up about 40% even with the two losses. Considering I’ve owned some for 20 plus years my measly 40% compares to 300% for my IRA’s during the same period.

So where they a good investment? No. Where they fun to own and shoot? Yes.
