Huge auction coming up
I love going to auctions and one is coming up next week that will be fantastic.
Unfortunately, my schedule prohibits me from attending.
There was an amazing gun store 45 miles South of here.

About Kesselring's Gun Shop
Kesselring Gun Shop Inc was started in 1947 by Clarence Kesselring who began as a machinist and self taught gunsmith. Clarence became frustrated in the late 1930's that he could not find a good set of scope mounts. He began manufacturing his own design of scope mounts in the early 1940's until opening Kesselring Gun Shop in 1947. Clarence's son Ron Kesselring, worked alongside his Dad since he was a small boy. Ron began working full time in the business at the age of 18. Ron is world renowned for his vast knowledge of optics and competition shooting, winning the Canadian national Championship in .22 Silhouette two times, and tied for first in the U.S. Nationals once. Ron has also participated in the Washington State .22 Silhouette and .22 Gallery competitions placing as state champ twelve times!
On September 30th 2013 Kesselring Gun Shop Inc stopped selling firearms. Today Don Kesselring operates Kesselring's (still in it original location) with five other committed employees. Kesselring's always tries to offer you competitive pricing, and fast service. We can usually get our internet orders shipped the same day if the item is in stock.
Kesselring's primarily sells muzzleloaders, air rifles, ammunition, optics and reloading supplies. We stock more items than listed on this website so please email or call if you do not find what you are looking for.
So they lost their FFL (Federal Firearms License) for some reason.
The upshot is that all of the guns and accessories are being sold in a massive two-day auction next week.
From the Murphy Auction website:
Day One and
Day Two
Well over 2,500 lots coming up for auction. Brand new guns, sights, laser rangefinders, gunsmithing tools, etc... If I was going to attend, I would book a hotel room down there and be there every day. Got too much other stuff on my plate though.
