Score in First 15 Minutes of MAX show

All,

A first issue, unaltered Werft Kiel gun, 96%, mismatched non-concentric Imperial navy mag. Exc bore, exc furniture and, get this: Serial number 130. This is the lowest SN I have encountered on 06s. Probably made first month (week?) of issue. Paid a little bit more than i wanted, but still consider it a bargain.

Will do "forensics-type" write up when I get back home and have a few hours...maybe some photos, if my skill in that department improves...

Lets hope tomorrow brings some similar finds; after all, you can always work harder, sell stuff, etc to get more money to indulge this hobby....actually, I sold 5 guns to Ralph which paid for this and a tidy wad of cash left over.
