Found my first GUN!

[treblehunter]

Toy gun that is, ha lol. I spent four hours back there, I must of seen 200 bottles, mostly all are modern with threads.
I found a Pepsi, Clorox, Coke, Bell mason jar complete with porcelain liner and lid, Nehi, Wm. Franz, and a old Bacardi rum bottle that I think is a 1903
The gun is a western that the trigger still works and is almost complete (broken hammer tip, and plastic grip) Oh yeah a EverReady flashlight.
I foresee a lot of digging in my near future, I have to get to the bottom of things

LOVE IT!!!!! The gun is awesome too! Even if it is a toy. This will make you feel better. Did some metal detecting today in this crappy Ice/Snow... Found some Horse Tack, Stupid Bottle Caps, stupid matchbox cars, and a piece of a reign......Its one of those days where I don't think I could find a coin if you locked me in a bank vault...

I run across a lot of Clorox bottles like that, but I just leave them where they lay. I have run across some with rubber stoppers in them. I am not sure how old they are.

I called the Clorox company and they told me that the brown bottles were made from 1945-1960.
