My Best Pawn Shop Find EVER

Wow! Those are really nice! Congrats on a heck of a lucky day
 
Thanks for the comments. I think whoever turned these in to the Pawn shop must have been a collector. I believe they came from the same man but couldn't find out more about that. I'm sure they guard that kind of info. I was trying to find out what else this guy turned loose of. But you just never know the circumstances. For all I know it could have been a widow clearing the house of the evil. I didn't go out of my way to inform the shop owner of what he had. I really don't think he cared. I say that because after they were safely in my hands I told him a little more about them. Again, he let me know politely that it really didn't matter to him. Even though I paid a LOT less than I normally pay for guns I'm sure he still made money. He said he would look out for me for others that I might be interested in. And I did provide my buddy that actually made the find with some adult beverages. And he knew exactly what the guns were worth. I still can't believe how nice that Heavy Duty is. The Nickel 2 incher is clearly shooter quality. But those are so hard to find.
I thinks it neat to know that one of the main things on my mind when I found these two, was showing them to all of ya'll. Not to boast, but more along the lines of what this Forum means to me. Not to sound corny but it's kinda like family.

Exactly why I haunt pawnshops. I have gunshop aquantances that don't understand why I get such good deals, they say they don't do pawnshops because their stuff is overpriced. I tell them you can't get the deals unless you go and go often enough the pawnshop managers or owners recognize you and know you are a serious buyer.

Congrats on finding 2 collectible S&W's at bottom dollar prices. Fortunate son, indeed! Enjoy, and thanks for your post. Stories like yours keep me looking in all the nooks and crannies that I would normally pass by in my wanderings.

Everyone who has tossed in the towel after striking out on many a visit to the pawn shops without finding anything worth buying will make the rounds this week because of you! Score.
 
I wish the pawn shops around here had guns like that! You need to watch that shop every day for a year.
 
WHERE is a cop when we need one?!?!!!!
Tha pawn shop done been robbed! :D

Way to go, Roger.
Good for you.
GET a LETTER for the M&P. Many shipped to neat places.
 
Boy did you get screwed on that deal, those guns are grossly overpriced and in really poor shape...

just kidding, thought that I would offer an opposing viewpoint just to bring you back to earth. After all of the accolades you won't be able to get your head through the pawn shop door to make your next purchases.:D

Very nice, I too would have broken my arm getting to my wallet.
