Kinda excited. A Fabrique Nationale M1900 (Browning No. 1) semi-automatic pistol in perfect condition with the original holster and even the pistol button close chamois case A Savage Model 1914 pump .22 rifle. Also in excellent condition. I would love to display them but will probably just pack away. Funny enough. These were my 84 year old mother in laws weapons.
I have an "ought-three" Winchester .22 auto-loader, made in 1905. Because of the unusual ammo (case is shorter and fatter than a long rifle or short), the little carbine doesn't have a lot of re-sale value; ammo is only available through the Western Scrounger for around $14/box of 50. Yikes.
I read that this rifle would chamber .22 Short, Long, and Long Rifle cartridges interchangeably. Theoretically I shouldn't have a problem if I decide to actually use it.
Is it .32 ACP? Fun caliber to shoot, not much recoil, very accurate even in small pistols. It was the first cartridge Browning designed, and remained his favorite.
