    So pretty sure we picked this up with some other consignments today. The title is what I was told. I haven't seen it yet. I will post better photos as soon as I can. What do you guys think? IMG_0812.JPG.jpg

    Those came in a special box with dummy ammo in belts etc. See if any of that left behind. That one's in great shape, many are beat to He!!. Might bring $500 to $1000., there aren't many nice ones available anymore. There's a rear plate with a pistol grip that appears to be missing .

    The owner said it was missing few pieces that is probably what he was talking about. Thanks so much. Too bad it's not complete but what is there seems to be in good shape.

    I don't know much about the gun, except it looks like something I wish I had found! :)

    I found the gun. I mean the exact same type of trainer gun. The one we have even has the red on the inside. I thought it was weird like someone had tried to paint it or something. So we are missing the grip on the back and the little pin that sticks out of the side and the one we have isn't mounted on anything. I kept finding them but they had different bases than the one we have.

    Heck no! That dang thing is getting too much interest from the people that we have come in. I am looking forward to selling it plus this area is perfect for something like this we have more rednecks looking to mount it on things than I can shake a stick at. LOL! I think I may just start charging to get a picture taken with it I could probably earn a decent living on that alone. LOL!

    This was my husband the first time he saw it. He just had to do this so he could go show all his buddies at work. He does not normally wear his hat backwards. This face and attitude was all part of his pose. LOL! Needless to say he is not the only one that has a picture like this now. Everyone has had to come have their picture taken holding it.

    I am surrounded by idiots. LOL! Love-able but gosh they are dumb. ;-) I mean that is the nicest way possible.

    LOL! Yeah I don't think you could run from that.

    I mean if I was like "look there's a nuclear warhead" they would be trying to ride it. I am sure they would say something along the lines of "Here, hold my beer and watch this." first though. LOL! ;-)
