MASSIVE gun collection auction!
 
Session Three of the Spectacular and Historic Collection of Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess (Zurich, Switzerland). Dr. Sturgess’ Collection is the largest and finest of its type in private hands today and the finest to ever come to auction.

Scroll down and you'll find a crap ton of Lugers, some type's I've never seen before!

Ya never know when you might have to repel boarders!

Lots of very nice and intriguing firearms. Duckfoot is indeed interesting but I'd have to go with a Mountain Howitzer!

Thanks Terry, MASSIVE indeed! BTW, nice to hear from you!

The items in this auction are truly stunning, about what I'd expect from tne collections of Dr. Sturgess, et. al. Wow, what condition (Well, maybe except for the Mauser #5)! Beautiful stuff. I like the Broomhandle with the integral butt stock, never saw one of those babies before--like many, many of the others--and feel privileged just to look at the pics!

There was someone making that Mauser "integral" buttstock, (it actually can be removed)conversion back in the late 80s, early 90s. They where making them from the huge influx of Chinese Mausers coming in. I don't recall at this point who was offering these.

Thanks man. After my past issue I've been laying kinda low. :thumbup: Maybe one day I can feel safe enough to post up the new collection. My favs are a matched pair of handles that help you sweep the floor. ;)
