Rekraps Posted November 15, 2024 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2024 7 hours ago, TGCJ said: I was able to get a parts kit and cleaning rod from e-bay last week. I was happy to find both items; they were accurately described and seemed reasonably priced. I have been reading about parts kits/rods for years but never saw either item for sale. As far as I am concerned they are just display items for my 1928 along with web gear, manuals and assorted stuff. I would not dream of passing either item off as original and while I don't generally like reproduction items - high quality pieces like this add to the collection even as reproductions! Why did all the kits suddenly come up for sale? A Canadian dealer I purchase from occasionally had two original Auto Ordnance manuals, a Mills C-drum case and eight Mills and Russell L-drum cases for sale (all gone now). It seems odd to see all the TSMG accessories come to market at once. Great point, I too could not understand how I was able to find this on eBay... nobody at all bid on it so I contacted the seller and made an offer and he took it right away. Not disappointed at all!

TD. Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 Those with my Amateur's Guide book can turn to pages 151 - 154 to learn more about the Herigstad Reproduction Spare Part Kits including the production figures. I later continued the story in, A Thompson Compendium, on page 162 with the information on how Gordon finally received the message about unmarked reproduction accessories from the Thompson community and decided to mark the kits. Ryo, I too paid more for my Gordon reproduction Spare Part Kit several years ago. But I am OK with that. All good stuff!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt21a Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 (edited) Yeah they now want $340 shipped not bad. If a guy needs to fill a hardcase spot. I SOLD ONE AT SAR SHOW 4 YEARS AGO FOR $500.00. EVEN THESE will get more. i think when i bought the few from Gordon decade or longer it was like $200 bucks. but i sold the 4 originals i had from $1500 to $2000 and that was well over 30 years ago.. I miss Gordon a real great guy, and a friend. update new ad they have more to go around..... if somebody needs one or wants to just have one. go get um..
