You can spend a life time building something up, someone can tear it down in a day.

I know the ad states south side but that address doesn't come up when I google it, it shows in Westfield.

What town or city is this sale in? Would like to attend

 

[greghvac]

stop 11 and meridian see you there

Stopped by there, brass, bullets, and primers seemed on the high end. Dies were cheap, but it was mostly odd caliber stuff. Lot of manuals and shooting books for decent prices. They would deal a little bit from what I was seeing. Funny thing someone was complaining that someone posted it here and he said that " half of INdyGo was gonna be here." I have to say it did make me LOL.

Any bullets in 9, 45acp, or 223? I wanted to go but I work weekends

I went there too. The brass was def on the high end. I was looking for more pistol reload components. Besides brass there didn't seem to be a whole lot. Did pick up 100 45ACP speer hollow point boolits for $10, a free metal ammo box and a $4 wood box. It was a long wait in the rain before they opened up. Was able to get in there to be one of the "first 20" but there still wasn't much of what I was looking for. If ur looking for rifle calibers, there seemed to be a lot. I'm happy with what I got. Went to the hoyt rd armory after and scored some deals on reload components there too. All in all I can't complain too much. Got the wife and i out of the hotel for awhile since we r just visiting Indy this weekend.

I want to thank Bob and his family for the opportunity to add this book to my library.

Amazon.com: Springfield 1903 Rifles, The: The illustrated, documented story of the design, development, and production of all the models of appendages, and accessories (9780811708722): Lt. Col. William S. Brophy USAR (Ret.): Books

 

[Cat-Herder]

I picked up several books, and some odds and ends my daughter liked. By the time I got there, the standard reloading stuff had been pretty well gone through. There was a lot of .222 (not.223) primed brass, and 9mm primed brass, a lot of dies in obscure calibers, and more periodicals than I have time to browse through. Bob was quite the man.

Estate sale

Estate sale was there about nine o'clock this morning I will agree with the other posters breast and primers way too much money to do for reloading manuals at the right price seem to be a good selection also lots of collectibles not my kind of thing that had several cartridge and bullet wall plaques with everything cartridge related on them I do not know what the price is going to go down on the primers and brass and bullets if not they'll have a lot left over my check tomorrow afternoon light just before they close

In hindsight, I was really unprepared going to this yard sale.

I had intended to print off my spreadsheet of firearms items valuable to me and their market prices. Unfortunately, I got in a hurry & didn't do that. So, I was at a disadvantage. For example: there was more than 400 primed .223 cases for $15.00 / 100; in the time it took me to call my buddy & have him look that up to determine if it was a good deal or not, they were gone.

If you weren't there by 8:30am, you were behind the curve. The good stuff flew out the door in the first 30 minutes.

Bob was a cool dude, he had a lot of cool stuff.

May he always shoot a clean.
