What Do You Do With Your Old Parts

[Hvymax]

I have some plastic bags of them in my workshop in the basement. I try to not ever look at them, just reminds me of the dollars that I have needlessly spent. Once you buy them, they are not worth pennies on the dollars spent.

Once you have enough you can build another gun!!!

....Willoughby Scrap iron used to pay $12.50 a ton, was a bear separating all the brass, and copper, non ferrous stuff from the iron, and then of course ,aluminum,,,still got drawers and drawers full of stuff left over from the 3 shops we used to run, I gave up in 1995.........very little sells at any given gun show, people do not even stop and look at it.
Sarco and Numrich would get our crates of stuff, and they'd go over it and make an "offer" just like they did when High Standard, went out back in the 1980s and we had been doing warranty repair work for them, as well as Dan Wesson back then oh I wish I had those parts today!!! Yikes.........

Numrich will buy your old junk parts. You send them a box. They send you a check for what they will give plus what you paid for shipping. If you cash the check the deal is done. If you don't cash it in a given time they ship the box back at no charge for postage. https://www.gunpartscorp.com/ --- How to do it. https://www.gunpartscorp.com/sell-your-parts

This keeps the old guns shooting. I have bought parts that can't be found. And you get a little cash. I have several guns that would not work with out them.
