Yes, I made it to the show. I went with Bob Adams, John Eckert and Warren Buxton (P.38 books author). We had a good time and the trip went well, although that is a lot of driving. I drove from El Paso to Albuquerque on Thursday morning and then we all continued to Tulsa - 16 hours on the road alltogether.
Saw George Anderson, Tom Heller, Bob Weiss, Leon DeSpain and Johnny Peppers there. Of course the big 3 were there - Shattuck, Simpson and Feit. George Anderson brought in most of the collection he just bought (all the ones he isn't keeping for himself!). Nice guns. As usual, Fred Fiet's table looked like a museum.
I would guess there were at least 200 Lugers at the show. Didn't count them, but there were several tables with over a dozen guns on each and lots of one to three Lugers per table. Yes, there were a couple of Krieghoffs, if you are interested in that sort of thing
. Not bad guns but nothing to hock the farm for. Didn't find anything I couldn't live without, but there was a really nice 1900 Bulgarian that I wish I could afford.
I found four additions to the US Test Luger list, one in-range and three above-range. Will update the list on the forum in the near future
The show was pretty well attended but not as well as I have seen it other years. It was kind of a mixed result show. Some of the guys said they did very well and others said the action was pretty dead and didn't sell or buy much at all.
