A matter of the right place at the right time.

All came from local estates being cleared out at the local gun shop.

I went back the day after and bought the last one for a total of three.

Nice find. I do some of my best picks at estate sales. Are you going to replace the missing scopes?

I have 2 Lyman Alaskans waiting in a drawer. Best I can do for now with this covidcrap going on.
