I needed some more $$ to finish the remodel and addition to my old shack, so I traded the high grade Simson Mdl 95 drilling for a rock solid 1953 vintage Sauer 16 ga (70mm chambers) and 8X57JRS drilling with a newer 1.5-6 Zeiss in claws. It had been properly restored...re-blackened and a nitrate treatment to the receiver, and it had the wood bedded and scallop area glassed inside.

It hurt to see my dream drilling go, but the extra money and a nice drilling salve the wound. wink

Nice drilling, now you have nice digs and don't have to resort to a pump shotgun with a slug barrel.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.

Yeah. frown frown

My house cost too much more with the addition and some remodeling, and Something had to go.

Dale gave me a fair deal on a trade back to him.
