At the end the old 22s, 303s etc were being sold for $20-40 each, $50ish for 3 (Toz) single shots, $30 for a Parker Hale 303 - the mag was worth twice that. My wife asked when I left if I was taking the trailer, I wish...but just rubbish if you don't really have a use for them. I put my hand up when x2 .410 bore Singles came up and the ask dropped to $80. Had not viewed them but what the heck..the Belgium one with borer in the stock is a lovely light gun in excellent shooting condition even if patinaed grey etc. The bore is good and action tight. The American one is twice the weight and heft and will scrub up like new. Took them to the range today and just had some fun. Look out possums, rabbits and maggies. I suspect my grandson's will grab them and I'll need to start reloading 410.
