Like I said for him, please let us know what he meant, not what your "guess" is. Could be $1100. Could be $1000. Could be other combinations, my learned friend. Until he states what he meant, we really won't know.

I'll take; "Upper as pictured with sights and circle dot holosun - $1". OK, probably not what you meant. Please let us know what you meant.

I'll take it please.

I'd have met you in in Mesa. When you coming this way again and I'll pick it up from you.

PM. I'll take it.

Location?

They are a protected species.😂

Heading to Cottonwood and back this morning from Mesa near Bass Pro. If anyone needs anything to travel back, let me know. Leaving at 8:15am to drive to Cottonwood. At approximately 10:30 am, I will be driving back. DM/PM me with your contact info so I can try to help. Driving a Prius Prime so large items like gun safes and couches are not possible.😁

Leaving Cottonwood. No takers. Fun drive!😂

I'm interested. PM sent

From a previous post: "...16 st and carefree Hwy area. Dave 602-228-1719"

I wanted a dart rifle to shoot dogs that were attacking my livestock in town. Buying a gun and darts was no problem, but the tranquilizer medication is controlled and one must be a Veterinarian to possess it. Even animal control can't utilize it. So, I still use my shotgun when necessary to protect myself, and my livestock. Not a fun situation but at least it's been several years since the last time it was necessary. Hopefully I won't ever need to do it again.

Crazymonkey definitely deserves this, in my opinion. Two great people, seller and buyer.

Nice old pump. Love the barrel.

That should allow someone to burn up a little ammo. The youth have fun shooting that much, but we have sufficient magazines for ours. If they ever reduce the quantity of rounds the mag can hold by infringing on our 2nd amendment rights, a well placed rivet will reduce the inside capacity to the required quantity, just as the wood plug does in a shotgun. You are a great guy for dedicating so much to our youth. Keep up the great work!

And here I was in September of 2021 fixing the Baldwin baby Grand I inherited from my mom in 2019. I had never repaired one before but I was having a problem with E4, a wire was bent and not allowing the hammer to function correctly. Maybe a pencil ✏️ had fallen in and somebody tried to play? Nobody in the family wanted it and my kids were taking lessons. My kids have all learned violin from the age of 5 years old. Their mother also plays the violin. Because of their great music teacher and their mother, my kids are very accomplished on the violin. The piano was later for all of the kids($$$$) and the last two also did guitar. We did get a discount for so many lessons. After we were down to just my last child taking lessons, I stepped in and my oldest daughter lives nearby and is taking lessons on the piano, and occasionally her violin to keep it up. On varey rare occasions my wife will take a lesson to try and get herself back going. It was really awesome the nine years my kids would play together with the teacher as collaborative Pianist in church. Once a year in the summer they would play once for our Ward, and then for hers. As my kids left for college, we combined kids from both families, my youngest is a year younger than her oldest, and they would play. This was the first summer that they did not play, too much going on. It takes a couple of weeks to put together a really good performance, and trust me, these were really, really good.the music teacher would write an arrangement of the existing church hymn to fit the instruments. We've been spoiled! The feeling when they played was so awesome and heavenly that many eyes would start to water up. I really miss my kids. The youngest will be applying for a mission in January. We'll see where they want to send him. Hopefully a Spanish speaking, but who knows where the Prophet and upper leaders will feel needs him. He's my only boy and my daughters contemplated going, my third daughter may choose to go yet, but the older two decided not to. I know that my kids learning to play violin and piano was the best investment I've made, and now it's my turn, before I kick the bucket. Much harder after 60! I'm the teacher's oldest student and it's very humbling to be the old fart playing the simpler songs at or in the recitals. A lot of pressure twice a year. I definitely would rather give a speech in front of a large auditorium of people. I'm way out of my comfort zone. But by now everyone knows I'm just a beginner. Motivates me to try much harder to be much better, and to learn much faster Good luck with your business. I've been self employed all of my life. I was a little lower than most but gave the best service and work. As I got extremely busy, I raised my prices until I stayed busy but still had a little excess capacity. I still get people wanting me to do their work and willing to wait until it fits my schedule. You do what you feel you need to do to make it work for you. Check on others by calling for a tuning to see what they are really charging. Repairing pianos may bring in more as well, if you enjoy that. Life goes by very quickly, so try to enjoy what you do. The only things we can take with us when we pass to the other side are our knowledge and experiences, so always go for the best of both!

I bought it in 2001 for $100. I didn't start learning to play until the middle May of 2021. I've always liked cool old instruments, tools, furniture, cars, etc. They had more craftsmanship. I have a second, much smaller and less ornate pump organ that came across the plains with the Sirrine family. I bought it from a Sirrine wife's estate.

I actually own a 1897 Baldwin pump organ that I recorded myself playing the simple hymn version of Oh My Father. The sound makes one feel like he is in a pioneer church service. With the pump organ, your feet are constantly moving to provide the are for the organ pipes while you play. A little challenging.

My progress is not candy coated. I'm finally slowly plinking my way through the easy LDS hymn book by sight reading on the piano. I have 13 easy hymns that I've learned to play and sing too, and passed off by memorizing the piano part. I bombed my last recital. I choked and the piano keys were much stiffer than the keys on my Baldwin Baby Grand I inherited from my mom, felt wrong. She got her Master's in music. On the guitar I had spent enough time but gracefully ended after 1 verse before I could crash because of pressure. I prefer pre-recording my songs since I can pick my best one and there is less pressure to get it right the first and only time. Since I started learning during the Covid restrictions, we didn't have live recitals until last spring. Now we will do spring recitals live, but winter will still be recorded. I have a few favorites, but I play them fairly well only because I memorized them. Now I'm actually to the point of reading quickly enough to play, with errors, Bass and Treble Clefts two to three finger chords, very slowly. I started by learning the piano keys and notes, really ground zero! For those that understand piano levels, I'm at level 3 working towards level 4 in the lesson books. I play and sing a mean House of the Rising Sun on the guitar. My attempt of the Edmond Fitzgerald was pretty good as was my El Condor Pasa. Every thing I do, I do it for you was a train wreck in my opinion. My last Spring recital song was the one I cut way short, Guantanamera in Spanish. I had it down and choked. Love recital. I'm just now starting fingering instead of strumming. Fingers don't cooperate like I want them to. I play and sing to maximize difficulty. I sang in choir as a kid over 45 years ago but never learned the notes. Now I know them fairly well. There is so much written music that nobody could play 1% of it in a lifetime. Now if I skip a day without practicing I don't feel right. Even on vacation! We went on vacation last year to SF and they let me practice a little late at night on the piano at the Beacon Grand, the old Sir Francis Drake. They were so kind to us the 5 days we stayed there. It was the third day I finally asked them because I was having withdrawals. I didn't have my music with me but practiced the songs I had memorized. First serious vacation that was not a family reunion I had ever gone on with all of my kids. Cost me a small fortune but the memories were very priceless. Piano, guitar, music is wonderful disease.😂 We should probably take this to a private chat.

Stuff not only weighs similar to gold but almost sells like gold!😂
