Eric,

Congratulations,

Boxes and bando's look really nice.

Thanks Jim.

I forgot to mention that these things are as crisp as the day they were made. They would stand on end and not fall over. :) Clearly never issued and 100 years old.

Like everything else about collecting, your two happiest times are the day you acquire something, and the day you get rid of it.

 

I hope you're talking about my wife :) I can't imagine getting rid of my collection.

In the top picture, the thumb nail is sideways but when I click it it is the right way.

Nice closet setup, my wife would have freaked.

Do you still have the 5050 Colt? I looked at it,

but Greg stated that he was going to keep it.

A very nice gun!

Ser.# 50550 bought from G. Scott. a couple years ago.

I thought you where the collector that bought it.

One of the finest Navy's I've seen.

I wish. The transfer process, since they changed the trust, has me not wanting to buy much. I collect so many things, I have switched to web gear and equipment for now. Instant gratification and still tangible history. I am not selling any of my guns.

Forgot to add. My focus is the USMC stuff in mint condition.
