A shooting partner of mine who is in his 80’s remarked a couple of weeks ago that he had some S&W stocks/grips that had come off from combat magnums back in the 70’s and he was going to give them away.
He was shocked and not quite believing me when I told him he could sell them for $100 plus depending on the condition and wood. He was even more shocked when he learned that the box full of S A T’s and unopened bags of cleaning rods, mops and brushes were going for $25 and up.
He turned all of them over to his SIL who has been selling the stuff onEbay for what I told them they would bring. They were both shocked at what they went for and how fast they went.
