[QUOTE="YakBasser, post: 1899847, member: 5379"] For Starters: Just got an Old Savage .22 semiauto from a friend of mine a couple weeks ago. Looked Really Good, but like it had Never been cleaned....Ever. I started in on the Xtreme Cleaning, and finally decided to take off the Butt-Cap. When I did there were 2 white spots which at first glance I thought were Spider Egg Sacks, You know what Im talkin about. Sooooo, decided to take it outside and scrape'em off. Pulled out the knife, and they wudnt come off. I was like, Hmmmm....... Finally figured out it was Cotton, like pieces of Cotton Balls that were stuffed into holes that someone had drilled in the Stock. Pulled this out, and guess it was intended as someones survival piece. Inside were 7 LR rounds, about 50ft of fishin line coiled around a hook, and 4 strike anywhere matches snapped in half so theyd fit. U just Never Know. Pulled the Butt Cap off another Old Rifle once, and Someone had written "Stolen from So-n So, August 1958" Ahahahaaa......now did he steal it, or was he just anticipating??? Whats Your Stories????
