About 30 years ago I traded a Raven 25 auto that I had paid $50. for straight across for a Colt Woodsman in excellent condition. A couple of weeks ago I picked up Ruger Service Six in 38 special in excellent condition for $150. I later discovered that it was a Liberty inscribed edition from 1976

Oh and I forgot about the 16ga stevens double that was also part of the $400 buy out of coworkers guns. I did endup trading the winchester 28ga for a smith and wesson 29 .357
The double went to brother... after some rework
The remington p1917 I think will end up being a 338-06 at some point
All the .22lr will just be what they are and have fun with them.

Bought a black powder revolver for $70. Traded it for a Mosin-Nagant that turned out to be some special ski-trooper model. Traded the Mosin to Trainsktg for an M1 Carbine with 600 rds+/- S&B ammo. Sold the carbine to Deadeye and bought a S&W 4006 TSW from Coctailer. Sold the S&W and bought a Kel-Tec Sub2k. Sold the Kel-Tec and bought a suppressor.

a p94 ruger for 220 last november

 

[Glock Jock]

Thanks to the Glock Blue Label program I got a G23 for $425 new, 2011. Should be getting a G19 this year for the same price. Not amazing, but I like that they have a program. This was California, so It might be cheaper here.

 

[balline36m3]

I bought an unfired Winchester model 70 in .270wsm with leupold vx3 with 200 rounds of .270 wsm and a Remington model 700 .338 win mag with a leupold vx3 and 500 rounds of .338 win mag for $350.

What I've traded for: I bought a little 8 foot walker bay boat for 20 bucks and traded for an unfired para ordnance 1911 A-1

 

[nwwoodsman]

Bought a mint condition Savage 99 in .308 along with two boxes of Lake City 7.62x51 FMJ's for $150 with some high school graduation money. Best deal I ever got. Unfortunately being young, dumb, and full of stupid at the time this also turned out to be the best deal another guy got a few years later.

fin mosin nagant M28/30 pawn shop $96 OTD

 

[Kimber Custom]

I hate threads like this because all I can think about are the guns I paid *way* too much for like the $500 SW .38 or the ones I regretted selling like the $79 SKS.

I picked up a nice 10/22 w/metal trigger group from CycleSurvivor for $150. My daughters 597 from a pawn shop for $100 OTD.

 

[MarkAd]

I got a SKS (free, witha case of ammo), a S&W model 12 snubbie (free), I need nore free guns

 

[beavernation1]

Bought a Sig P6 for $225 with extra mag, and the military/law enforcement holster with it as well in 2010 then sold the damn thing for some stupid reason

 

[accessbob]

I have two that are tied in my mind.

1. Gun Safe from a member of this forum (not bad with those high security locks with the round keys) for a 12 pack of Ale and $26 to get the Locksmith to make 2 keys for it.

2. Found my wife a Smith and Wesson M&P Shield for $400 here on the forum about a month after they came out.

 

[nilva]

Picked up a Norinco AK-47 under folder at the gunshow, brand new $325 back in the mid 90s those were the days!

 

[jayleno]

Another just came to mind - picked up a Schmidt-Rubin K98 at a pawn shop for a song - because it was missing the mag. Picked it up as a gift for a friend, as he was a big fan of the rifle - had ammo and all. Took it out to show friend's dad, who had a mag in his safe. Turns out, the numbers match! Seems rifle had been stolen from him quite some time ago and now mag and rifle are reunited.

 

[Ordell]

Brand new, unfired Glock 32C w/3 mags, $279.00+tax in 2010. The dealer had all their 357Sigs on clearance. I showed up on the second day of an unadvertised sale.

 

[gaijinsamurai]

VG/Excellent condition 1916 Erfurt Luger w/ all matching SNs (except trigger plate) for $300.
Excellent condition 1942 Walther P38 w/ all matching SNs for $350.

 

[JackFrost]

My best score was a brand new, (still) unfired Mossberg 590A1 with Blackhawk sling, soft case, red dot optic, M9 Bayonet and 100 rnds of Winchester 00 Buck for $420. I thought that was a pretty screamin deal!!!!!!
