It's cool but not my thing because it has no military history. It is certainly a great investment at $450 considering he could flip that for 3-4 times that much immediately.

I have a mint Venezuelan FN Model 1930. I'm good with that.

I went to the Dulles show yesterday to pick up a Swedish M1887 Nagant made in 1899. This one is matching and will replace my current example with an unnumbered cylinder. I got that one for cheap and paid about $160 more to get this new matching example. The old one will be sold.

Nice looking. Do you shoot them occasionally or only keep them in the collection?

I shoot them occasionally. I shoot 32 H&R Mag. The cases bulge a bit but they work.

Thanks. These don't come up very often, with only 14,000 made. When they do, though, they don't seem to garner much interest. I guess because ammo is unobtanium. I'd much rather have one of these than a Russian M1895 fly killer.

Looks nice!
Check the 1887 for a chipped hammer, a pretty common problem...

Thanks, it's pretty mint. I don't think it saw a day of service.

This was one of my better scores. Bought it from a woman in PA last summer. I don't know if she was selling an ex's or deceased husband's collection or what.

Been wanting a wartime military marked Sauer 38H for a while now, just been waiting for one to come up at the right price. I was quite surprised when I won this real nice example with holster and spare mag on GB the other week at way less than I thought it would go for. Late war, German eagle/37 marked on the trigger guard.
