Hey targa911S or any other spoon fans in PA

Pennsylvania Coroner Auctioning Off Guns Used in Suicides | NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

May be a gem or two to be had.

Although it does seem a bit morbid. Bad juju maybe.

But that could make for good prices.

Worth checking out... Especially for a few investment pieces... A guy like David could probably make a buck or two there!

The Fermaru-Fegyver looks interesting.

Wonder if it's a war trophy?

The high number of .22 lr is disturbing. Those must be accidental deaths. People underestimate the lethality of that round. Not sure if I'd want to own a suicide or accidental death gun. The latter may be a liability if not checked out properly, if it likes to discharge on its own. My final though on this is also that most the guns are cheap beaters - anything of value the family would have picked up, even just to sell themselves.

.22 is a deadly weapon, no doubt.

You guys think some of the .22s are suicide guns? That's scary ...

''A western Pennsylvania coroner is auctioning off about 100 guns used in suicides and accidental shooting deaths.''

Pretty sure they are...
