    Trafalgar at Bisley this Weekend

    Its Trafalgar time again, who's going and what are you after?

    I am not buying anything this time (how many times have I said that) but may have few items to sell.

    Ditto, not buying, not even the cased three barrel service will tempt me
    See you on 7th July

    And yet another ditto, although that doesn't mean I won't be taking some funds along just in case. The main thing about the Trafalgar for me is that it represents the last chance to savour the Bisley atmosphere and drool over some of the lovely guns on display until the next opportunity in March.

    Regards

    Take plenty Brian

    I have had to bite the bullet, (pun intended). Been offered first refusal on a Webley Service with three genuine Webley barrels in a Brady case and a couple of third series, but had to decline

    Never mind, it's Ronnie's turn to buy the breakfast
    See you on 7th July

    I could be tempted by a Jean Marck No1 or anything pre WW2 target based. Then there is my resurrected passion for the Walther LP53....

    It is always good to meet up with fellow collectors for a chat at these events.

    See you there.

    Bisley Trafalgar

    Can any of you regulars to this Fair tell me if I am likely to off load a couple of BP pistols (FAC- I am giving it up) and find any old, ineresting, springer pistols? Also is it worth dragging around any blades or is this fair like many I have attended - airgun free and selling only?

    Always ready to buy another Webley pistol and another and . . . .

    Tis a fair trek for you, but I think there will be some traders open for a deal on Black Powder Stuff. If you are after any thing in particular 'springer pistol' wise, post your wants on this thread, some traders read this.....
    See you on 7th July

    Hello,

    Unless the BP pistols are original, I doubt you would have any luck getting a reasonable price for them at the Trafalgar meeting. Unfortunately, second hand reproduction BP pistols are always diifficult to sell unless in part exchange for something better. There are two or three tables which sell classic air guns with Keith Bayliss's being the most likely to find something nice. There are also some tables trading in new and classic knives, but again I would suspect it would need something special to tempt them to buy.

    Regards

    Brian

    Get there early and see Ian at ITL shooting supplies, hes at the far end of the glass room and will probably give you a fair price.
