I won't have a table, but I'll be there and at the Show of Shows beating the aisles.

Ron Dickson can always fit more tabs in.

Edward Tinker · 12-07-2014, 10:15 PM

Charlie, that is what I figured

Will I see you at both or just the militaria show?

Ed

lew1 · 12-08-2014, 12:23 PM

I probably will be at both. Barring unforeseen circumstances that is. (I cancelled my table for the December show.)

Ron C. · 01-06-2015, 09:11 PM

Ed,

Look forward to seeing you there. We will be having our meeting Friday night at the Crowne Plaza for anyone wanting to come you are welcome to. Here is a link back over to the P.38 & PP-PPK Forum. Thanks.

Ron, always good to see you and the P38 guys!

As an aside, since I sell many of the Police Luger books, when folks have asked for an autograph, only I can sign it. Well Dwight will be at the show, looking and seeing but at the table off and on!

Less than a week - bring by any luger parts or Simson items to my table

Dan44 · 02-23-2015, 09:04 PM

I hate to say it, but its the first one I'll miss since 2003.

Hi Guys,
I will be at the Louisville gun show. This year for the first time I will have a table along with fellow forum member Mike Calcote. I will have a dozen or so guns eight of which are Lugers. Mike is bringing a few Lugers as well. One of the other guns I am bringing is Gamo Hunter Extreme pellet rifle. This a beast of a rifle. Weighs 10 or more and take a lot of man to load it. I purchased it for one of my grandchildren but soon realized NO WAY. It fires a .177 caliber pellet at 1650 ft. per second. That's faster than a 22 bullet. It has a very nice 3x9x50 BSA scope that has an illuminated reticle. I fired it about 10 times. I am going to price it at $375.00 at the show, but if a forum member wants it, I will take $300.00. I would like to sell it to a member at the show, but if someone wants it who is not going, just let me know.

Mike

Daily reports from The Show???

(Or at least from the motel bar!)

Edward Tinker · 02-28-2015, 08:53 PM

First chance, sorry.

I have sold small items, nothing large, however, I have picked up two uppers, one a K date without a toggle,the other is a early 1st issue with later weimar barrel.

I picked up two early luger manuals, in English
I picked up some luger parts, to include a Simson tool and an unumbered but proofed eagle 6 breachblock.

Bought a shooter luger, it should be a $1400 or more police Luger, but the stock lug has been ground off.

Saw a 1925 SIMSON (crazy guy wants 35k.... I didn't bother telling him it might be worth 6-7 k)
Saw two other Simson, new numbers, one unit marked and one is an S toggle. $4,000 each

Saw a very nice 1902 carbine from a friend and a couple more.

Saw three consecutive 10k Serial number range B test lugers (not the 1000 group test lugers) but ones Georg Luger would have handled. Amazing and real...

Met many friends and a few new ones. Had a heck of a good time!!

Saw a lot of interesting things!

Edward Tinker · 03-02-2015, 09:25 AM

addendum - NONE of the three Simson were new on the listing - I gathered some additional info and have started keeping price (in the section no one sees) and also where and when I saw it (have done that for a long time).
