Hunted a couple of spots the last few times out. It's HOT, the ground is hard, and my digging hand is killing me LOL. I returned to my NWMP button farm and found another cuff button which made me really happy. Then I dug the goldish (plated?) cufflink. The surname of the family who settled here starts with B, and the cuff has a B engraved so I was pumped to be able to make the connection. The other cuff with red stone was found at a different location. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1470088203.106204.jpgImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1470088581.343315.jpg

At one of my fav spots I could literally dig head stamps and shell casings until the cows come home. It's endless.ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1470088398.685670.jpg

Is this a trigger guard?!ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1470088483.962099.jpgImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1470088520.617163.jpg

I had to dig my butt off to find some keepers but it was worth it. Any newbies reading this should take note of just how many holes it can sometimes take to find something decent. Keep digging my friends.

Hello JC. Nice finds. You're correct as I like to say to folks who ask "It's not that I did not find anything...I just didn't dig enough holes." Those finds have got to represent a few hundred holes dug.

You got some good stuff there and I gotta say that I find many head stamps but that is a double-combined-$#!+-load of them!!

Good luck. C9
 

That trigger guard is from a Savage 110 bolt action.

Great finds! You've got a bit of money in brass going too:) Did none of the guys in that area ever reload shells....? My dad would have killed me if I left that many spent shells on the ground!
 

Thanks for showing all the stuff you dug.... For most of us that's much closer to reality. I like those cuffs, never have dug one myself that wasn't broken. It's too hot and the dirt is too hard here in NE MS... The best I can hope for during weather like this is a construction site.

Thanks cambria. I could go back to that spot and dig another 100 of them before sundown lol. Eventually I will get them all, sooner or later some goods will pop out.

Hey thanks for the ID! I guess it's not super old but I'm happy to have found my first real gun part.

I don't think they were into recycling lol.
 

I love links! A cool and personal find. Those are very very nice and will display great bud
 

Nice hunt J. Looks like you have quite the variety of finds.
