Potland Gun Show Report--April

Dwight Gruber · 04-26-2003, 11:43 PM

Portland Gun Show this weekend. Several Usual Suspects with Lugers were absent, Jerry Kramer didn't bring any.

Scattered around the hall:

the usual 1900AE table queen $1.6k

1918 DWM, 80%, $800

1906AE Safe/Loaded, rebarrelled/refinished, $2.5k

1908 Commercial, altered/refinished, $795

Code 40 1941, really good condition, turning plum, %900

byf 41, $800

s/42 really sad force-match/restamp shooter, $600

Highlight of this show is Jim W's display/sales table. A couple of LP-08s, a couple of 06 Navys, 1900 and 06 AEs, 1900 Swiss, a handful of WWII Mausers, a handful of shooters, some accessories, some leather, and that was just Friday. Today there was added a 1902AE Fat Barrel and a Simson Suhl. Not much of a chance to see some of the less common items around here, so it was a good opportunity for me. Its a great display, and provides a good conversation.
