The Lausanne gun show 2011, a tour...

[Ron Wood]

Thank you Frank! Not as good as actually being there but very enjoyable. Looked like there was a fairly good selection of Lugers and C96s although the views were far too brief. Also a nice assortment of headgear and edged weapons.
Thought I caught a glimpse of a couple of familar faces, but it could be my imagination. Also heard a smattering or two of English being spoken...not unusual for Europe but interesting all the same.
Again, thank you for this brief tour of a Swiss gun show.

It was actually the first time that I used the video function on my photo cam, had to try at the show first on how to get it to work and still did it wrong but something came out ok.
That English speaking was between Werner Kessler (from the auctions) and a guy I don't know. There were many people from abroad and Bob Simpson was one of them, I had a short talk with him there last Thursday.
The clip was taken just shortly before the show opened it's doors and I could not have done this no more after the crowd came in so I made it at the final moment before.

Funny thing is that this show is a mix of languages, it takes place in the French part of Switzerland so French rules but of course German, English, Flemish and many other languages are heard there, it's one of the things I like best.

Guisan.
