    Found this buried in my back yard

    I was roto-tilling my backyard last week and hit something metal. At first I thought it was a piece of pipe but when I picked it I saw it was a rifle. Or at least what was left of one. It was really rusted and the stock no where to be found. The next day my friend found the magazine. I used a brush to get most of the dirt off of it and I didn't see any marking on it at all. I don't know what kind it is or what I am going to do with it. It will probably just sit in my garage with the rest of the crap I keep in there.

                        I think it's an M1 carbine. Sell it to AJAX22... he loves rebuilding these rusty relics...

                        :-P
