#45 I found a 1864 Smith & Wesson .32 cal 5-shot spur trigger revolver under the floor boards in the attic of a house I was renting in Amherst, MA in 1992. There was a bag of bullets next to it that was itself wrapped in a newspaper dated 1932. I loaded it and shot two holes through the ceiling ...you know...like an idiot. In my defense, I was nursing a bad cold and drank an entire bottle of Nyquil. When I got better, I patched the holes and sold the gun to a collector for $150.

I'd like to think it was used in an unsolved murder.

#19 Most likely a "souvenir" brought home by someone stationed in the "Pacific arena" during WWII. This was probably a Japanese officer's sword.

I'm not surprised it is still sharp. If indeed it is a WWII era Japanese military issued sword, despite being machined instead of traditional forging they are quality weapons made to last. A very good find!

Clo,

My grandfather brought back a "souvenir" when he popped a Jap at The Battle of Tarawa in 1943. It was a bolt action 30.06 with Japanese inscriptions carved into the stock. I remember firing it as a kid. The recoil literally knocked me on my ass.

How many people actually buy property and then explore it AFTER the fact?
