I think you don't understand, ALL PROCEEDS to the site, and I pay shipping.$ 130.oo & 20.oo$ to the site. Buck fiddy total
@ the OP's discretion This is a $130 bid with a $20 donation on my part..to the site.. in the event of a win!
Seems like both partys envolved should help support the site YMMV
You make good humor. It's tough, sometimes to choose who got there first, etc. on a hot item. I have some 'I'll take its ' on this, (PMs). And I respect the first come principal of marketing, bare motives............1) Get rid of some worthless **** that cost me nothing. 2) support the site with other people's money. 3) Make somebody all gooey about the Swiss ammo can the stuff comes in.On what date do you plan on ending this... Is there a 15 minute rule LOL.....

Lucky, It looks like I do not have brackets, but have exactly what is pictured in a recent post. I think to make this device work, the 'U' brackets would be required. It's a no brainer part to make, or buy. Thanks for pointing out that I don't have those.Curious, Ryland, if the brackets are drilled for the 1/4-28 screws or are the early version for 5/32 rivets?
It appears to be riveted, Lucky.Ryland, from the pic you look to have the rear bracket, properly called the "guide" actually. I am referring to the brackets that mount the bar itself. I don't see the front guide, but they are easy to make. Also, the buyer will need to make the spacer that fits between the side plate and the "guides". The holes are just a matter of curiosity to me, as the early guns had rivets, later guns had screws.
In all fairness, I said the bidding would stop Friday morning, and it did exactly that. This gentleman is the high bidder. Please PM me with a shipping address and a promise to foward the funds to the site. I will send the same matching amount, as advertised. Please report back to the board how you feel this worked out for you. If it's a happening thing, we will do more of this.I will go $210.
Please report to the board how this works for you. I want to perfect the concept of site sponsership with minimum cost to me. Can I get a witness?PM's sent to both Ryland and Rory.
Thanks guys!!!!
Thanks for the excellent observation and suggestion. To be honest, I never considered the time zone thing. Gosh, do we use Zulu? GMT is the standard, afterall. I understand the problems that some 'auctions' might have, but this one has the unique quality of benefiting a happening little gig, and most of the players are gentlemen and the benefit objective in view is the site. Anybody that throws his hat in the ring here can expect fair treatment. There is no profit motive. This is a quality that 1919a4 board members enjoy, which varies greatly from other virtual places.It is working just fine so far.
The only suggestion that I have at the moment on it is that in further benifit auctions, is to set a definite end date and time with a time zone stipulated. I have seen these types of auctions run on other boards before (not necessarily site benifit auctions), without that info and a lot if times it causes a lot of arguing and a big mess over who won what and what time zone was it supposed to end...blah blah blah. I also think that might bring in more people into putting their money into it and possibly higher monetary amounts if they know that information, which would only be even better for supporting this great forum!!!
The fellow made a good suggestion. But I can say most of us don't pick the fly **** out of the pepper, and this is all small stuff. I don't see any board members clawing the eyes of a competitor here. The firm close time, and specifically defined is a good thing. I also have .308 brass, berdan. Do I keep giving this stuff to the guy at the dump?That would be -5 Romeo if we go by Zulu time?
