Some HK's...

Pete Ebbink · 03-17-2006, 03:45 PM

A couple of HK's just posted over on Doug Smith's web site.

As a joke, someone should ask Doug what "POR" means; maybe "Priced Over Retail"...???

I jest of course.

There is a nice little 1914 Police modified luger for $ 1150...as well. On the same page at the lower right corner of the page.

That is a shame, but he has good stuff... I wonder if Doug has any Simson items?

Tom A., I see above that you have "closed" your "kriegie" collection! Wow! Does this mean you have a 1939 dated HK? Would love to see pictures of it if you do.

Yea, yea... I remember saying the same thing many years ago

Tom has TERRIFIC HKs (or so I've heard

)...

Tom - there is always "just one more" around the corner.. HK's are kind'a like Lay's Potato Chips - there is always room for just "one more"...!

Best to ya!

If you are looking for a really expensive Krieghoff, try:

Wants $50K, no pictures

"POR means I cain't afford it"

I called FGS today to get prices, and they were both sold at 15,000 each!

Edward Tinker · 03-20-2006, 08:30 PM

Tom Whiteman, I didn't know you had that kind of spending money! Lets go "shoppin"!

Ed,

In your post "POR means I can't afford it" was great! Another word for "I can't afford it" is "Kreighoff", LOL

var99 · 03-22-2006, 10:19 PM

I agree, that is why I linked it. It never ceases to amaze me to see people think some one would pay $50K for something sight unseen. Aside from the fact that for $50K it would need to be a 1945 HK, mint in box, factory papers, for anyone to pay that.

The Kriegs from FGS at listed as sold. I wonder how much they went for?

I now see Tom's post, they went for $15K each. I would have thought $11K - $12K.

My wife would kill me if I spent that much on a gun, even a Krieg.

Hi Tom,

Yes, well he has been cranking out a fair number of HK mags and tools on ebay lately.
