I laughed seeing that. Not really surprised though as there's plenty that think "ooooh, it's black, polymer and it has a rail...it's tactical I gotta have one now". When the market is of shall I say "vacant space minded", those three aspects will sell anything.
Digging through all the memorabilia (A LOT is gonna be let go) and found a small stash of these prop rods. Figured I post 'em here before dropping them on eBay. $40 each shipped (lower US) and can certainly accommodate shipping costs with multiple rods. (I use flat rate USPS boxes)
in factory Ruger bbl's I've used them without issues and with some pretty good results at the range. I do see tham as more hype than anything but in a market where people think more power or speed is a superior must have, I don't doubt some swear by them over the alternative. What will they do...
if you were selling an item for $700 in Covid times and then that stopped would you still ask $700 or qould you make what you were selling go back to $450? What would YOU go with? ;)
As long as the people believe they need the latest super ultra maxi magnum to hunt white tail and the latest mini-max is needed for small game, these new cartridges will keep coming. Some just re-hased variations of existing cartridges long considered obsolite or inadequate. Those 30-30's -...
Don't want my son to have to deal with the "what do I do with this stuff" so thinking in the next few years, it'll be allowed to find new homes. If I can talk myself into it, I'll start soon. I'll use that money to take him on trips/vacations - those will be more importnat than totes of stuff.
what should matter is how much they'd mean to you to have them. They'd obviosuly not be licensed and have any collector value but if they're to be used, it's all on that personal "worth it". The contents won't taste any different they it does from your current glasses.
Why not simply seek...
Wasn't long ago the memorabilia was seen posted up for sale on on the auction sites fairly regularly. Now, it's rarely seen. Has the interest in this stuff dried up or are those with it simply keeping it or not knowing what it is, tossing it in their yard sale piles?
Have decided a bunch...
