Sweet. I've never found a firearm deal like that. I paid 300 for a 91/59 and an excellent condition Hungarian M44. I thought that was a good deal. Still waiting to come across something like yours! Also, jealous that its a T38. Haven't come across any Arisakas in good enough condition for me to want to own.

They're too busy working 60 hour weeks in middle management trying to hit their sales figures for their division on the other side of the Pacific, making payments on their overpriced house, and keeping up with The Walking Dead to give a damn about things like their father's stupid worn-out mementos.  They have Social Security and Medicare to worry about in a few years, they don't have time for antiques.  There's pointless jobs to slave away at worthless shit to buy at Wal-Mart and minutes of their life to waste that they can't get back but weren't going to do anything useful with in the first place.  They have an existence to justify to a system that only wants them to convert energy into labor and doesn't actually care about their existence.

History, honor, valor, and remembrance aren't profitable.

That's beyond an incredible find.

How could the owners have not wanted to keep the rifle, wow

Or, it could be as simple as the owner just wanted them gone. Remember these are NoVA peeps that are mostly Yankee transplants so their mind-set is a lot different from normal Virginians.

There could be 87 reasons why he wanted them gone but it's not my job to delve into a seller's reason for selling them....Don't care.

Hell maybe his dad beat his mom or some such, you just don't know why folks sell things.  

I remember the guy that gave me two bring-back SKSs (long before they were imported) saying he just wanted them out of the house "because the childrenz".

Better that emotional tripe be saved for another type of thread because what it has to do with yard sales is beyond me.
