Stopped off at a junk shop looking for knives Saturday..... I mean this was a SHO' NUFF JUNK shop......LOL.
Instead I found these old rimfire cartridges....
The 3 on the left are 41 Rimfire short (mostly used in derringers)
the 1 in the dead middle I am not sure about.... looks to be about 41 cal
The 3 on the right are 38 rimfire..... (1- long and 2- shorts)
Had fun digging but NO knives.....

A guy at the gun show had a small display with all sorts of retired ammunition. In the display he had two stripper clips loaded with 8x56R, a tough to find round for the Mannlicher M1895. I have one and tried to buy them from him but he wouldn't sell unless I bought the whole display. It's cool though, I found some a few booths away, which is weird because normally, no one would have any.Meridian_Mike wrote:Stopped off at a junk shop looking for knives Saturday.....

Thanks! It's an honor to have such an historic rifle that saw action in both World Wars.
The guitar is a cheap Savannah brand dobro. I've been playing guitar for thirty years and decided to learn dobro. It's a lot different!

Back from a near-perfect morning stroll, with the Old Henry .22, looking for rabbits. No luck on the rabbits, but it was 53 degrees and nice and still. Some things are starting to green up...won't be long till the wildflowers are blooming.

Great picture Doc!
Nothing like a lever action 22! Mine is a Marlin 39M. I love walking through the fields plinking too.

I have never seen one with that much of a latching system on it. Looks REALLY heavy duty.
Very interesting!!
