Post Portland Gun Show Report

Portland Gun show this weekend is a three-day show, I took this afternoon off and took in the early day. So far, its low tide for Lugers.

A couple of Usual Suspects don't have tables, a really nice 1900AE and the John Martz Baby which have been at shows most of last year have sold.

The $1,600 1900AE which is -always- there is still there.

.30 Commercial shooter for $800.

1917 DWM, heavily pitted, $300

Mitchell stainless steel, $595

Jerry Kramer was there with a small high-quality selection,
Abercrombie & Fitch "Swiss" $6,500
1929 Swiss Bern $3,500
1913 Erfurt with stock lug $1,795
1906AE $2,695
1906 Portuguese M2, $2,295
DWM 1st issue P-08 (I think $1,500, I forgot to write it down)

Ugly gun of the show was a commercial Luger, gold-plated with walrus Ivory grips.

There were a few tables still not set up, so I'm hoping for some more Luger content tomorrow. On the plus side, it was a particularly large crowd for a Friday.
