Yeah, looks like this flea market is under the radar for the tool collectors in my area, for now.
My plan is to grab all the good stuff before they find out.

for $5!! Have you seen what they are selling for?

The bicycle wrench with M in a Diamond and A-1 is a Mossberg, but the other mark escapes me.

I just skimmed the surface at this place. I got there late and most dealers were packing up.
I plan to get there early next Sunday morning for the big score !!

I have a regular Saturday morning flea market that I go to every week.
It's a gold mine for tools and you guys would be amazed at the things that I don't buy.
