We got in a box of junk one day a customer brought it. Gun parts, cleaning stuff, junk. Appeared to be the leftovers of some poor old geezer that bought the farm and widow was cleaning out the shop. Employee from downstairs bring it up and says the boss told me to tell you to go thru all this old crap and run any of the gun parts into stock and use the cleaning gear in gunsmithing.
I start going thru box an low and behold there’s a Lyman # 48 for a Mauser in it! Like new! I snatch it up. At closing I go downstairs and ask boss how much. He says $25. Its the one on that photo of the Oberndorf "B" I posted in the custom thread.

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
