What brass shortage

True Story, I sold some unrelated stuff to a stranger at a gun show.
We were chatting a little bit and he asked what I might be looking for?
Well.........always looking for 30 -40 Krag brass I sez. He went on his way with out much more said.

Same show a year later. Same place. Up walks a guy that seemed familiar. He sez, "were you the guy I talked to last year"? Um, ya I think so?
I'll be right back he sez. Comes back with a cardboard box, puts it on the table and sez "here, this is for you". I tried to pay him and he sez "Oh no, it's a gift".
"You treated me fair last year" and I don't own a Krag so here you go.
There are still good people around.

Is this one of those "no good deed goes unpunished in reverse" things? Exactly right. There are good people left in the world.

In other news, I don't need to put you in my will when I go to the happy Krag land in the sky.

Missed you at Perry the last few years too, BTW...

Good for you! There is never enough brass when you want to do some reloading! May God bless that man for his generosity!
