Couple of days ago I was high bidder on a Series 80 Colt factory barrel & bushing ~ mainspring housing ~ trigger ~ hammer ~ sear ~ grip safety ~ recoil spring guide & recoil spring plug & a couple of small pins.
All (no longer needed) parts from one series 80 pistol that was sent out to have custom work done on it.
The Ebay auction picture was SO bad that I really couldn't see any detail on any of the parts. And...neither could any other potential bidder & thus no flurry of bids. All the parts just looked like dark black, blurry blobs. :biggrin:
I got everything for $50.00 (basically sight unseen)
So...Did I get totally beat on a passle of junk gun parts or...did I get a good little deal for myself?
Time will tell & those Colt parts should be sitting at my front door in a few days hence.
I look at it this way...........QKLogic...
The odds are MUCH BETTER than playing the lottery.
There is a 50/50 chance that I'll come out a winner.
Actually, a bit better than 50/50 since the seller had a good Ebay personal profile section.
I'll let you all know if I end up Happy Or (Boo Hoo) Sad ~ and GOOD OR BAD ~ I'll take another photo of those exact "auction won" parts for you.
Ok...here ya go...original auction photo. Would you bid on these parts?? :banana:
