WWII relic hunting

[ray1970]

This would be a cool weekend hobby. Too bad you couldn't do it here in the US. Well, maybe if you wanted to find civil war relics.

You could go up to the Auetian islands.......... Specifically Attu and Kiska.

Someone in Poland has a Facebook page, I can't read it but I look at it from time to time. He's digging up all kinds of stuff from the Kirkland area I believe. It's fascinating in that some of the stuff dug up is still in amazing condition.

That would be a great hobby !!! I picked this scope up a few years ago at a garage sale. Paid $20 and found out because it had the rubber eye lens and lever mount it was worth about $2,000 for a collector :

When I was right out of high school, we would go down to the beach from time to time with a metal detector and find all kinds of jewelry buried in the sand. Right after spring break was a great time to go look. It was a cool way to make some money for beer or ammo but we never really found anything old or rare or cool.

I remeber when I was a kid in the late 70's when I viseted realatives in Klodzko Poland there was a military concern just outside of town. Me and my cousins would find all kinds of stuff throughout the farmland feilds. Theres still an anti aircraft gun sitting in my uncles feild- never did get the whole story on it but man would I like to know.
Wonder if you can still find ammo for it?
