A couple weeks ago I was out shopping with my friend from Kentucky. Yep, we went to Treasures and Trends, antique mall. Gun shop in the back. Picked up this Chinese type 53. Been looking for a Mosin carbine. Thumps pretty good, very accurate and shoots a basketball size fireball. Also bought 120 rounds 303 brit for $30. Will make my MK 4 & 5 happy.
Back in Florida, on the way home from Kentucky. Was on I75 and the traffic was terrible, my wife says let's get off the highway and head across on 44. Well the gun/pawn shop radar went back on and we found Nordic Gun and Pawn.
Got the Ruger 22/45 for a pretty good price.
And something I have been looking for. Bottom pic, Arisaka Type 99 w/bayonet. This store has hundreds of spots in the rifle racks, every one was full. Spotted this 99 in a bottom corner. No price on tag. Asked for price, guy asked the manager, he said we gotta make some room, buck and a half. So I took this one home for $155. Now gotta get a loan to buy ammo for it.
Pretty good trip
