Take down tools

cirelaw · 03-21-2011, 07:33 PM

I was wondering if anyone out there primarily collect takedown tools. It seems there is no recognized authority that I am aware is the king of takedowns. After I bought my 1937 Krieghoff from Ralph last year I had a hardtime finding a legit takedown. I got a taste for them and now need one for my 1908 navy. It appears we are surrounded by more and more fakes and no real guide on the subjest. I thank for the assistence of a fellow member and friend. Is there a detailed book on the subject? Which ones are the hardest to find? Which are the most faked? Was a specific one made for my 1906 Frenchy or 1900 US Test piece? Where do I start and who is our in house expert? I appreciate the help of those out there! TKS Eric aka cirelaw! PS Did they ever make one in Chrome?
