We helped set up a booth yesterday here in Denver at the Tanner gun show and will be headed out there shortly for the day. From what I saw during the setup there should be lots of interesting toys there this weekend. One ammo collector guy had a board with 14ga shells of paper and brass by at least two makers. Never seen a 14ga brass hull before. He had good stories of being issued a mod 97 as a police officer and shooting up cases of brass 00-buck rounds from the inventory. He said that getting the old '97 out and racking in a round would put the 'fear' into bad guys like nothing else could...

No gun show, but we went to the gun club this afternoon and looks like I may have picked up a 16 gauge Sterlingworth

I only spent $10 at the Tanner show today. There was a fair bit of old shotgun ammo I'd have picked up if I didn't have to fly it home in overweight baggage. Agonized over a pretty nice box of blue Peters paper 12ga ammo that I could certainly use...$30 seemed high so I passed. Box is in excellent condition though. Did I screw up??

We saw it and made an offer while there. We heard back while at dinner that the offer was accepted. We have a family reunion tomorrow but will go close the deal right afterward. It has some rust which needs attention but is good otherwise.

richard you shoulda bought that ammo in my opinion...would guess worth 50 if box was nice...old ammo about gone around my parts and there never was a good supply of it.. i have some of those 14 ga brass and paper shells i bought off the internet years ago.. should have bought the 18 ga remington but passed at 150.. only seen 3 18 ga on the net for sale they say the 15 ga is the rarest of the rare...did you see any 4 ga or 8 ga at the show... charlie

Charlie there is no hazmat fee on shot. Chesk into reclamed shot. At 30.00 a bag it is still good for blasting.
