I can't stop thinking about this thing. Wonder how quickly the house would sell? Where could I live? Why do I live?

So many unanswered questions.

Hey, if you got that thing you wouldn't have to worry about where to live. You could travel around and do side shows where people would pay you just to look at it. Maybe at gun shows. You could make pictures of people holding the gun (wearing white gloves of course to protect the gun) and charge them 20 bucks each for them. Carry around a little DVD player to educate the young skulls full of mush that attend our public schools today and show them a little about American history.

I see a fortune in this.

I like our thinking. Maybe I could get a Federal business loan. Wouldn't that be a hoot.

Heck I'd give 500 just to hold it and look at it for 5 minutes. What a cool historical thing.

1.Authenticated as her gun.
2.Complete with ammo and mag.
3. Not collected as evidence by law enforcemnt.
4. Given to a 12 year old (including ammo) <--sweet!
5. A 12 year old has a gun and bullets and did not use them!
6. Not lost or stolen in the 70+ years since it was found
