UPCOMING SPORTING GOODS AUCTION – ITEM LIST

WHC---Guided-Bowfishing-300-x250

 

by Bret Amundson

An upcoming auction in Litchfield will be full of guns, ammo, fishing rods, tackle and more as Ron Nistler liquidates his outdoor store.  I spoke with Eric Gabrielson from the Steffes Group about it on this week’s MNSJ Radio Show.

“Ron ran a bait and tackle sporting goods shop for over 30 years,” said Eric Gabrielson from Steffes Group, the organization handling the auction.  “His wife passed away a year ago and he decided to hang it up.”  The shop was on the south side of Litchfield by Lake Ripley.

A Browning A-5 16 gauge is among the guns that will be on the auction block.  “Sweet 16.  Yeah, they’re tougher to find than the 12,” Gabrielson said. “They’re a little more sought after, (and it’s in) nice shape. The guns are all used but in very nice condition.”

They’re also ammo for the 16 gauge, .223 ammo and more.

The guns may have been used, but many other items aren’t.

“I’d say 95% of the items are brand new.”  Rods, reels, tackle, minnow buckets full of gear and more.   It’s not just the inventory that will be up for auction either, it’s everything.

“And when you say everything, it’s right down to the minnow tanks, all the shelving in the building, all the displays-you name it. If you want to get into the business of running a bait and tackle shop, there’s opportunity here to fill your store up.”  Including the rod display racks and mounts on the wall.

The auction is Saturday June 13th in Litchfield.

“We’re just south on 22 from Litchfield, MN,” Gabrielson explained. “We’ve got a large indoor arena, so don’t worry about the rain.”

Here is the complete list of auction items:
