Right after high school, I worked at a Rose's department store, where we sold old surplus military rifles.

Hardly a week went by that we didn't have Mosin-Nagants, Mausers, or Enfields on sale, sometimes as cheap as $20. While a number of these rifles were in need of some serious refurbishment, there were quite a few that looked to be in excellent shape.

I bought several of these rifles during the year I worked there, but looking back, I wish I'd picked up more while I was at it.

Oh well.
Sigh.
Hindsight is always twenty-twenty.

You ain’t kidding about hindsight. Too bad we don’t get “do-overs.”
