HELPING OUT WITH THE
TEXOMA ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATORY PROJECT..
.
I am now in the process of designing and building a small amateur astronomical observatory here in my own community to help teach the students at our local rural school the wonders of our universe and maybe spark an interest they might never have got the chance to explore elsewhere... I am looking for a large telescope at this time of 12" to 16" on an equatorial mount, with computer auto guiding to place in the structure when it is finished. I am selling personal property to fund it at this time, and I am looking for donated equipment that is in good working order. The observatory will be placed on my own property which avoids a few conflicts of interests within the zoning and planning board has within the consolidated school district. Keeping the observatory privatized will avoid the troubles due to funding and control conflicts that any bias district board. I will be conducting open house for the students classes throughout the year and hope to have the structure under construction by the end of 2011....

Plus,  I have no family time now , especially with my baby boy with my many lingering unfinished projects, so they got to go!
   I'm also selling off some personal property as well, with a percentage of all sales going to help fund the observatory project.

1981 Harley-Davison Sportster XLH 1000cc  Rat Bike:   @ $2800       Email: mitchellmetalshop@msn.com

  
Bike as a XLCH front fork installed.

              

Last ran in 2006, parked  for tear down/ rebuild.


     
Fast.


    

Needs basic reconstruction, great project for someone who like to work on these bikes.

  



 
FYI:
Bike needs to have the derby cover popped off to get to the starter bolts as they are in need of tightening up as one is off in case interfering with the clutch.
I have not had time to do it or it would have already been done. Engine was running fine two years ago. I originally bought the bike to rebuilt it up to a show quality bike, but I now have more urgent things to do with my family now since my baby boy was born two years ago,
 so I don't have the time nor the desire to finish it now.

Armi Jäger AP-74  .22 long rifle, with one clip, shoots great..very accurate.
This is the very rare,stock version copy-cat Colt AR-15 look alike.
**** VERY,VERY  hard to find for the collector, especially one with a  functional & usable bayonet lug.

 

 Has the look, weight and feel of an actual AR15 when shooting minus the gas tube/recoiling function and
 minus the heavier buffer spring recoil effect, of course.

Has a custom made aluminum flash suppressor I had made up for it, of course, milled to fit the ring on the U.S. M-7 bayonets perfectly!

I own an AR-15 .223 and shot M-16 5.56 of various makes in the Army and this little thing shoots just as good as to it's over all accuracy for a rim fire.
 Military style peep hole/low light flip ring rear and front post barrel pin sights for quick point and shoot, a novice can hit targets with it easy.

 It could be a very formidable weapon to use in combat at 50 to 75 yard target ranges, I'm sure of that.

I do recommend using the higher end copper coated .22 LR's with it as they take longer to foul it up with less residue to
deal with than the low end cheaper copper or lead/wax coated rim fires out there.

I'm selling it out right for $399.00 -FIRM- Trade for astronomical equipment will be considered.
That's much less than one like it selling at auction for $426... see this link:
http://www.auctionarms.com/closed/displayitem.cfm?itemnum=7564329.0

PICK UP ONLY- I WILL NOT SHIP THIS RIFLE!
CASH IN HAND ONLY- NO CHECKS!
I do not wish to deal with postal or shipping hassles with sending a firearm  across country these days.
as-is where is.
