Some Swings, Musgraves, P14, Enfields and even 1200TX if anyone's into that sort of thing ;)

I was looking at this last night, there's some proper rubbish they are trying to offload, many listed as scrap or with parts missing. Surely something that is listed as scrap should either be deactivated or working parts removed to make it un fire able?

WHY? A lot of gunsmiths are NRA members.

If someone wants a firearm just for parts surely that's better than scrapping it? I expect some just need some TLC and a bit of money spent and will then be in working order.

Definitely better than just scrapping them especially as money goes to Young Shooters Fund

So the blurb said winners would be contacted 23rd Dec........... & I haven't heard since so guess the bids I put were not enough?

- Did anybody win anything? if so what did you pay? good deal?

I won my bid on a Musgrave that is going to be re-barreled into a 6mm of some type.

The bid was not in three figures. An excellent deal.
