Anyone collect obsolete BP or nitro revolvers?

[Jim McArthur]

Couple with that, it was also rumoured that they may just arbitarily instigate that everything will have to go on a collectors licence, obsolete, antique or whatever. I wonder what that will do to the prices? My mate could really get his fingers burnt!

Let's hope not,Simon. Then again, IF that happens, prices might drop and then stabilize again.

PM me your postal address, GM.

Yes, a packrat is someone who isalways acwuiring things, packing them away, can't bear to part with things. Based on your comments above, you qualify!

"THE MUMMY"?! Oh, Lord, I can't watch those movies: I WANT every gun in the movie, and they're filled with beauties!

My God...Colt Single Action Armies, Webleys, lever action shotguns, Colt 1911's...I jusr drool through the whole movie!
