Unexpected Surprise


Recommended Posts

Posted

Got a call, this morning, from a lady I taught to shoot several years ago. I posted about her a few years back. Her husband died and she was terrified and couldn't sleep after dark. I took a 38Spl,

her late husband had purchased for her years before, and taught her how to shoot the revolver and gave her self defense ammo to go with it. It helped her self confidence tremendously.

 She has since married again and living with her new husband. 

 

She called this morning and asked if I knew someone  who would like some old ammo her first husband had bought several years ago. I told her my grandson shoots skeet and that he could probably use it for practice.

She told me it had been stored in an air conditioned house and she had forgotten about it being in a up stairs closets and she wanted it gone. 

I went to pick it up this afternoon, and she had 12 Ga, 16 Ga, and one box of 410. In all she gave me 19 boxes of Federal, and Winchester shotgun shells. I offered to pay he for it, but she just

wanted to get rid of it. She said it was too old to charge me for it, however It looks new in the original boxes, but is over 10 years old. 

 

Grandson will love the 12 Ga and I kept the 3 boxes 16 Ga and 410. Going to give the 16 Ga Rem 1148 to youngest grandson, in S Carolina, and he, and his dad will shoot the ammo. 

Grandson's dad called me and told me he purchased some 20 Ga ammo last week, and set him back 21.00 per box to hunt swamp rabbits with in S Carolina. 

Some days turn out good!!!!!!!
