Thanks Micky. It did take 35 years to put together though, and in fact the last gun to be added to the collection was the 7th pistol down, only acquired 3 weeks ago. So patience (and a lot of luck) is the name of the game rather than deep pockets (although that does help). Each one has a story to tell, and the most cash I ever parted with for a single item was £600, at an auction. The bellows pistol (number 1) is a bit of a fraud as I made it myself (
