Recent Acquisitions // Pawn Shop Finds
I just picked up this Ithica 37 Featherlight in 2+3/4 from my pawn shop for $400. It was marked $550 on the sticker but I knew it had been sitting there a while so I offered $400 and showed him a gunbroker listing where there was a starting bid of $400. He wasn't entirely happy about it but he let me walk with it for $400+tax and I got a sweet skeet/bird/squirrel gun.
What have you guys picked up recently?
Buddy found me this spas for 900 bucks. No hook but for that price who cares?

>as is
what's wrong with it?

I bought one for 200 like 2 years ago

The guy brought it back because it wouldnt eject in semi auto AKA he was using low brass. It does what it should do with snap caps...even if its something I cant fix I can still part it out and make money. I'm waiting on the replacement buffer before I actually test it out. It looks good, mechanically, new buffer, clean the gas port, high brass. Should be good to go.

Thx. Considering these go for like ~1500, it was worth the gamble. Plus I get to kill imaginary dinosaurs wile I wait for the buffer.

Lightings kinda shit but you get the idea. Refinished the wood and had it hot blued, total investment is like 400 for a pretty nice looking gun

Forgot pic cause im a retard
>>34686389
that doesn't look bad, how did the engraving hold up to bluing?
>>34686401
Didnt affect it as far as i can tell

Why would you pay $400 for that? Even gun stores here in Massachusetts price them lower.
I got this for $100. It's a 1949, nothing wrong with it but someone hacksawed the original barrel down to 21". I keep meaning to send the barrel to a smith to get finished and a bead put on.
Shitty pic, but I sanded and stained the stock in Danish Oil very nicely. 1951 Wingmaster (first year), 4+1, 30" bbl, $250

neat this is mine

$400 is a pretty fair price, you're looking at paying $375+shipping+FFL fee at minimum online
