I ended up going Sunday to meet up with a buddy from Poplarville.
Got a good deal from a private seller on a Chas. Daly 1911 (same as those being brought in from the Philippines nowadays under other names - Rock Island, Citadel, etc.)
I don't know the exact name and model number of it, but it's one of the higher end ones. Satin blued slide, alloy frame, extended slide stop, extended ambi safeties, ext. beavertail, Novak-style sights, two Mec-Gar mags, and an Uncle Mike's nylon holster for $350. Probably about 98-99% condition. Almost identical "Citadel" model nowadays sells for about $500.
Got some other good deals right at closing on some random stuff. Bought a big pile of work gloves for $20. About two dozen pairs of Wells Lamont leather work gloves and about 3 dozen or more pairs of Hob-Nobs. Got one 10mm die and another as yet unidentified rifle die, both for $5. Got an old Sprinco heavy recoil spring and guide rod for Glock model 20 or 21 for $5.
I made a pretty good haul.
