Supposedly this is a picture of a part of the late Charlton Heston's gun collection.

It is not Mr. Heston's collection. It belongs to a fellow I know.

So...Where's the Lugers???

Postino -

I did not see any handguns either; however, this picture is only of one room, and there are other rooms too. This is the door to the collection which is all in the basement of his house. (supposedly)

All marble floors, expensive to do that. Oh, I guess the couple million dollars of guns on the walls, and the gatling gun over shadow the floor

Although all the guns are fantastic to see, I like the flame thrower on the wall.

Reportedly belongs to Robert Starer past Pres. of Ramo Corp. Cape Charles,VA.

I believe those guns belonged to the late Bruce Stern, an NRA board member who died a couple of years ago. Most of the collection has since been auctioned.

Me. Flame thrower was not the weapon I played when I was a kid

Too late to build up interest.

Wow. Install a door like that, material + labor is probably 30K (?!)

George Anderson said this is the Starer collection. He's been there and seen it first hand.
