Potland Gun Show Report--April
Portland Gun Show this weekend. Several Usual Suspects with Lugers were absent, Jerry Kramer didn't bring any.
Scattered around the hall:
the usual 1900AE table queen $1.6k
1918 DWM, 80%, $800
1906AE Safe/Loaded, rebarrelled/refinished, $2.5k
1908 Commercial, altered/refinished, $795
Code 40 1941, really good condition, turning plum, %900
byf 41, $800
s/42 really sad force-match/restamp shooter, $600
Highlight of this show is Jim W's display/sales table. A couple of LP-08s, a couple of 06 Navys, 1900 and 06 AEs, 1900 Swiss, a handful of WWII Mausers, a handful of shooters, some accessories, some leather, and that was just Friday. Today there was added a 1902AE Fat Barrel and a Simson Suhl. Not much of a chance to see some of the less common items around here, so it was a good opportunity for me. Its a great display, and provides a good conversation.
