The best deal I got, was $50 for a CZ24 Mauser my buddy had. I was with him when he bought the rifle before Hurricane Katrina hit, anyways after Katrina he shot it several times with corrosive ammo, never cleaned it and then put it away for 5 years. He tried to trade it in on a new shotgun for his son, but the gunshop owner would only give him $50 as the barrel was in bad shape. I todl him to hold on to it until we came to visit, as I wanted the action for a project. I looked the gun over and while the barrel is not in the best shape, the action is still in great shape. I gave him the $50 for the rifle, and then he says wait there's a catch you have to take the Mosin in the closet as well. He told me since it was his FIL and the man is in prison, the rifle is not allowed to stay in the house er his wife's instructions.
