Believe it or not, I found a Cheetos case box full at an estate liquidation last week in rural north Georgia.

At least 60 boxes, ranging from five in a box to a full 24 in a box, all different kinds, mostly turkey shot, 3 inch magnum.

I've not had a chance yet to look at all of them, but they seem to be in good shape...a few with case corrosion, deteriorating cardboard boxes, etc.

Minor stuff...but got it for 22 bucks.

Also found a milk crate full of 12 gauge, standard, all bird shot.About 25 boxes for 10 bucks, plus a real good milk crate.

Lot's of other goodies firearm related, Wolf springs and screws, still labeled, still in the baggie, trigger bows, grip safeties, all kinds of internal doo-dads for 1911.

1911 grips, mostly crap but at least two good stag sets and several faux-stag.

Five boxes of really old Frankfort Arsenal .45 ACP that I'm kinda afraid to shoot.

Lots, lots more, all goodies that I would never have expected to find in a estate liquidation, but there ya go.I felt pretty good about it, as there were several dealer-types nosing around, buying inventory for the "Worlds Longest Yard Sale" coming up in May.

Totally unexpected on my part, as I had come to look at a bucket for a Kubota tractor.

Ended up spending all my cash and would have spent more if I'd had it.

Just my lucky day, I guess.

The weirdest thing I found was an old "Multi-tool".

Dates back to the '20's or so.

Made by Armitage, has four wrench heads (weird sizes), four screwdriver heads, a pry bar, a spark plug tool for HUGE sparkplugs and a couple other things on it.

All in all, one of those days that come along maybe a couple times in a lifetime.

.410 is usually a bit harder to find than 12 or 20 gauge.
