    Assuming the barrel is good and rear sight is a 1902 (vs 1898) I would say that looks all original and was a very fair price.

    Here ya go, Just looking real quick Ill guess its a 1898 sight?

    Anyone see the LeMat revolvers the guy had on the right side? He had one with the paper shotgun cartridges also.

    I probably only focused on a 1/10th of the guns there, just so much eye candy that your eyes glaze over after awhile.
    I'm kind of kicking myself for not picking up that early Winchester 52A, amazing original condition, doubt I will see another.
    Another one I'm kicking myself over was a Remington 513T, military finish with a grooved receiver, very few known to exist and thought to be a small contract from the early 60's, had its Redfield sights, scope blocks and had a fair asking price of 550.00.

    Missed it this year. Not much of a collector but I have made some nice sales at this show for the past couple years. Even when not selling I do like to take my son and browse. My Dad enjoyed this show as well. He made several friends when we had a table there a few years back.

    Nice show, it was kind of different going to a show where all the things I was interested in where the newest things there instead of the oldest

    I saw a nice Smith Corona 1903A3 at the show, it looked nice and felt nice, had good barrel readings, so I bought it.

    Best part is, it was a "C" suffix SN which everyone seemed to miss because it was so hard to see, just look at the picture above, so I thought I made out pretty well for the price I paid:

    Got myself the last K31 MMB Imports had on Saturday. I emailed earlier and they said they only had 6. By the time I got to the table I had already seen 3 people walk out with K31's at the show. So I kind of started panicking. By the time I got there someone was buying number 5 and I had to jump on the last one. This is my second one and I am really glad I got it. It is a 1944 Walnut stock one. I finally have my second K31.

    You got a winner there, only 3600 will have the C, who knows how many are left, great find!

    A collection of Manton duelling pistols from ~1805-20 was a rare and beautiful sight. The owner didn't bother posting a price - I suspect they weren't for sale.

    It's a pity that the duel has gone out of fashion, along with the code of honor that made it an effective way of settling disputes among gentlemen. It can be argued that there are no gentlemen extant in these debased times.

    I missed this show due to back issues. Always a good show. I always enjoy talking to Bill Ricca and Wayne the gentlemen who is the one that writes the letters and runs Springfield Research.
