One of my favorite calibers is the 7.65x53MM. In 1961, I bought an excellent, matching M1891 for $16.88 that is in the vault. Today, I saw a yard sale sign that said: "Estate Sale" so I stopped. I saw tires, clothes and furniture until I saw a few firearms. There were a few beat .22 rifles and a rustly double 12 gauge and then I saw a M1909 Argentine for $100.00. I picked it up and saw it had matching numbers and the bore was bright. I peeled off the cash and went home with the rifle.
Today, Lori dog and I test fired this excellent rifle on the backyard range. It shot 2 inches high with my favorite 150 grain jacketed handloads at 100 yards with the battle sight. Ya gotta check out them yard sales.
