Default Pics of the recent Lucerne gun show...




A paper weight made from a solid aluminum base and some Italian made miniature cap pistol, making me guess it's from the sixties or seventies.
The Waffenfabrik did put their stamps in the pistol.










The pics were made during the preparing of a special exhibition at the Lucerne gun show, I had to make them through glass so sorry for the bad quality.

Nice photos...I even see a Borchardt peeking up from a bottom shelf! I really hope to get to Switzerland for a visit and catch a show one of these days.

A shame...


Glad you posted these pictures though, I love to see how shows are in other palces in the USA and abroad.
