Never found one, but I do have one hidden, along with an LPK, somewhere in my house and I'll be damned if I can remember where I put it

I lost 2 DSA FAL receivers 10 years ago and never found them. They're in the garage or the gun room, though. Also recently found a 1911 I'd completely forgotten about and a whole huge box of assorted magazines I hadn't seen since 1993.

Jeez wish I could find this kind of stuff I feel like I have struck gold if I find some brass I forgot I had or maybe a couple boxes of ammo.

I found 1k of subgun 9mm a month or so back, it was in a case marked .223

Yeah, I found a NIW preban lower that a friend gave me a few years back. Put it away and forgot I had it until I cleaned out my gunroom. Sold it on the EE for 425 and used it to fund my SBR build.

You want that $90 back? I can dispose of lowers if necessary.

I was rearranging my safe and found a Mossy 500 that I have no idea where it came from

Honestly, I have never purchased a 500 in my life but there it was, inside my locked safe.

Found a folding stock for a VZ58 in a big brown envelope I was about to toss out. It had been sitting on my bench for almost a year. No guns, though.

Had the same thing happen to me. I was buying stripped lowers before the panic kicked in prior to the last election. I thought I should have had 5, but found that I actually had 7.

Found a new DPMS lower about 6 months ago. I vaguely remember getting it a few years ago when I lived in FL. That's where I think I got it. Built it into an A4 not long ago.

I sorta keep a bunch of spares on hand.  When I get duplicate spares to equal another AR, I put it together. Then continue buying more "spares"

Found a Western Field 550B I had forgotten about shoved in the closet under the stairs.

I do the same.

Recently built two spare rifles to clean the parts box out a bit... Figure it is more compact if all the parts are together,  just need a grip and hammer/trigger assembly and I have enough to build a 3rd.

I hate to tell you this, but you're in the terminal stages of BRD.  Stage IV






Dibs on hidden lowers.

Too bad they weren't lowers you'd bought in 1993.

I still have one of those banging around my parts box.

I have no idea when I'll ever get around to finishing it off.

Did you check the freezer/fridge? it's amazing what ends up there

Not a lower but I found $1100 bucks I stashed after a weekend of gambling that I forgot about.
