rimfire4969 Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Just passing one of the local auction houses and saw thay had viewing, so with a hour to spare i popped in. I was amazed when i went in that they had about 20 shotguns in the auction that afternoon. I did not have time to stay for the auction and don't need anymore guns (want yes, need no) but came away leaving bids on 4 off them :yp: . 2 x Cogswell & Harrison 12 bore sxs, 1 sidelock and 1 boxlock, a 410 over and under and a 12 bore 3 shot semi. I could realy be in the muck if i get them all , i don't think that is likely. But i think i stand a good chance with the boxlock, 410 and semi. How the hell i am going to explain this one away, xmas presants for the kids Anyway should find out later today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricko Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 If the auction that I was at last Saturday is anything to go by I thought a lot of 'everyday' guns were going cheap. It is easy to get carried away! :yp: :( :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisecobandit Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Im not complaining.Rimfire isnt far away from me so if he decides to sell whatever hes bought cheaply or should i say is MADE to sell them on than i may get a bargain hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bb Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Anyone know of auctions in the Hampshire area that include shotguns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeignGadger Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 It IS a good idea to have the gun cabinet tucked away in a VERY DARK cupboard.... (and the inside painted matt black). FG i have a similar problem, my wife knows nothing about the last three guns i purchased! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shot shot Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 i have a similar problem, my wife knows nothing about the last three guns i purchased! relax, there's no way they'll be able to tell one from another just only take one out at a time (or two, or three, or however many she thinks you've got) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Sweepy Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 So you think us ladies dont know what you have hidden away in those little old gun cabinets. Or we might just be buying are time. For that right moment to bring it up in a conversation If i remember right Sweepy bought himself a new shotgun round about september. I think we might have that conversation say roundabout my birthday. So his still got the few months of enjoyment . Before he finds out that his bargain . Was not such the bargain after all. xxxSuzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conygree Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 As I told my wife," when I die don't sell my guns for what I told you I paid for them - go double" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
