AK Ammo Money

Last year I sold off my AK ammo and a coupla mags to Red for $225....I got the $$$ and was watching a spoons auction and what I thought was a Browning Citori shotgun came up so I bid it $230 and won the lot...well it wasn't a shotgun but a set of Citori barrels that were NIB...I thought what the fk did I do????? Will I ever get my money outa them...so I put them in the corner for a few months...procrastanting on putting them up for sale...well this week I said I gotta do something with them so I put them up on Gunbroker for $250 no reserve...the first day they went to $305 with now 4 plus days to go...so I am currently looking at a 20% return on my money...not bad for a fk up on my part...Now if it only had a few more zeros in back of it...

BTW Mother say big whooop de doooo...you just bought yourself a coupla buffets at the Belagio....I says..."Every bite O that crab will taste sweet...

Good outcome. Any chance of a pic of the Citori barrels.

My Citori has replaceable choke tubes. That must be an older style. Mine is about 20 years old.

Closing Price $345.00. Not a bad return on a small investment.
