    1 minute,1 target, 1 hole and gone

    Knew it was going to be a short hunt this eve so around 10 minutes ago i found this colonial buckle at the lake site that i found the colonial buckle frame the other day. I figured it couldn't get much better finding this complete buckle so I left with the one target, the rest I'll find another time. ....HH.... 401K

    This little buckle it seems that they are more rare to find. Even with all the other colonial frames these small ones are by far out numbered. ....HH.... Scott
