We can just hope for his sake the Arisikas were badly sporterised.

Re: Another local elderly gentleman looking to sell
Back in the day I would buy entire collections like this, of course back then we were talking about a grand or less, problem is I ended up never selling any of them. The gun hoarder thing.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Yeah would be cool if you could get them listed here. I knows father wants a new Enfield and would pay a good price for it to.

Re: Another local elderly gentleman looking to sell
Still waiting on a call to set up specific time to go look. I do know now that a few of the rifles were sportered but many were not.

Well I am sure it is worth a look. They are likely doing price checks like the last guy did.

Re: Another local elderly gentleman looking to sell
So far the son has brought a few rifles to work for me to look at. Maybe a test? I dunno. His dad is still not comfortable having someone come to his house. The few rifles I've seen so far aren't promising. Bubba had been busy with them.
