Many years ago I bought into an insurance deal. 550 burned up firearm. Every brand imageonable. Sold them at $5 a pop. Lots of Winchesters, Trapdoors, Sharps, Remingtons, shotguns, and a small amount of pistols. Story goes wifey fired the pawn shop that was co owned. It was a log building and burned into the basement. Then the "artifacts" were left to rot in a cow barn. No treatment or preservation at all. Pretty rusty when I got them and a friends wife said the look like a bunch of rusty relics. The name took and I have been rustyrelx ever since. A friend now has what remains of the lot but its mostly beat up shotguns now. The fun part was going thru everything and identifying it all. I gave up trying to sell the stuff when people started stealing them at the gun shows. We had 2 tables piled high with lots of stuff. It was dirty and became hard to keep a eye on everybody.
