    Default Collectibles

    So my gun guy called me today. He's just picked up dozens of collectible guns - long guns and handguns - many of which are plated or detailed in gold. The previous owner's father was an armorer for the KGB. My dealer is waiting for instructions from a court before he can sell them, but he's giving me a preview and first crack at them. I'll be taking a look on Saturday.

    I'm not sure if I'll be buying, but I'll definitely take pics of several of them.

    I'd have to reinforce the floor. Again.

    Good luck, maybe you can find a good deal.

    I guess my interest in the "made to be collectable" guns is pretty much zero.

    Have had a few over the years, and was told , don't shoot them, will ruin the value.

    The last 'Gun of the Year" from DU a Kimber 1911, cool rose wood grips and DU serial number.... gets shot regularly.

    Mostly I pass on the plated, signed and numbered offerings,.... would rather spend my money on a tool......That I can use.

    Got a look at some unique guns today, mostly handguns. I didn't recognize half of them. There will be lots of long guns arriving on Tuesday.

    Took some pics today - I'll post some as soon as I transfer them to my computer.

    Nice collection. Dad brought back a broom handle Mauser he took off a Field Artillery officer. It had the matching holster and tool kit. Mom caught me playing with it when I was a little snipe and made him sell it. Truth be known I'd have sold the kid first and kept the Mauser.

    The broom handle jumped out at me too.
