In the heyday quail years here years ago a man advertised an Ithaca 37 - 20 ga. .I went to look and he had 6 guns total to get rid of. Plus cases and shells. Couldn't agree on total gun price so went home to get check for the 20. When I got back he had decided to sell me everything at my price. Really a 410 at a garage sale. Congrats

it's a V grade with 28 inch barrels. I had to go to NJ to help my brother but I will post pic's when I return. It still has some case colors and bores are perfect locks up thight and is on face. He wanted so little for it I didn't know what to do so I asked him if he was sure on the price and he said he just wanted it to go to a good home. Asked him if he had any other guns said no that this was grandpop's barn rat gun ??? I always used a piece of junk 22 with bird shot for my rat guns. He did throw in 2 boxes of peters 2 inch 8 shot 410 shells nice boxes both full. I guess that is barn rat ammo?? I will have to remember to mark it just for barn rats!!! Thomas I bought lottery ticks the other day somebody else got my money!!

Being full, those boxes of cartridges are certainly worth something, especially the 2" variety. A good day for you, indeed!

I picked up a Model 12 at a garage sale. I am sure I saved it from being made into a lamp or worse. It wasn't free but it was cheap. It had never been given the respect it was due.

I once bought a Martin D-12-20 guitar at the Goodwill for $20, but a Parker .410 tops that!

Some people have all the luck. It is inspiring that this stuff is still out there and the hunt is alot of fun anyways.
