It was a good day

[cwlongshot]

Today I had a couple small jobs lined up, I finished the first early and headed to the second about noon thirty. Arrived and started work, easy small jobs, install six motion lights and a garage door opener. Finished by three and started talking to the home owner as I finished up the safety's on the opener.

Turns out he used to shoot sir guns quite a bit, now cannot pump them and he GAVE ME THEM!!  Two rifles and two pistols. He could not put his hands of the pistols, but produced the rifles quickly. A Crosman 2200 Magnum and a Daisy Red Ryder. Both about 25 years old at least. Neither has any number that I could find.

The Daisy was fully loaded. LOL we went behind his house and fired them both, they both worked just fine. Both have some surface rust and corrosion. I had another project with this man and he said he will find the pistols before we meet again.









The 2200 has a Weaver scope and the rear site is broken. The Daisy appears to be excellent, wood on butt and for end, little plastic. It also has a medallion in the stock. Maybe its some sore of commemorative ?

I have heard that you should be embarrassed to be seen with one of those 2200s  P.M.  me for an address you can hide it at...

now that's the kind of tipping you can get used to !
I'd say you owe that man a cold six pack of his favorite suds.

My brother the cop did some detective work for a lawyer friend and the lawyer gave him a 1883 Trapdoor Springfield that was found hid in the attic of one of his rental propertys. It was in vary good shape.
   Nice find
