Barn find...... arsenal
 
Actually found in an old trailer. Hand guns were wrapped in socks and stuck in metal drawers.
Non a re newer than 1979. It is a collect from a friend with Alzheimer's.
He forgot they were there.
Enjoy.....
No quick note : the octagon barrel 1911 Colt is a black powder conversion. Pretty cool ???

You owe me a keyboard! I want dibs on the shotgun in the box with the tube set!

Seahawk 03-16-2010 02:29 PM

Wow.

Do you/the friend, have any plans for the guns?

Turbo_pro 03-16-2010 02:33 PM

In this collection there are 4 different 1911 built in 1943.
Colt Gold Cup
US & S
Ithica
And one built in[Norwegian] Norway. Norwegian ???? brain fart

I would be very interested in the Savage 1907 pistol. ( The art deco one)

Yeah I like weird pistols, but why the 1911 conversion to BP??? I don't get it.

wreckersteve 03-16-2010 04:36 PM

US&S wow. I really want one of them. But too rich for my blood.

+1 on both counts. The 1911 is just....wrong.

Turbo_pro 03-16-2010 05:20 PM

It's only wrong if you're not a black powder champion and if the 1911 was your only one.
Bob owns 11 not counting the BP one.
That's the count so far.
There are a few customs and if they were your only example of a specific model perhaps all the customs would be questionable.

Um, ok. Excuse me while I go install a Type IV in my 993TT.

I had a savage 1907. GREAT pistol. It's still in the family.

Yeah it is.

That Colt Gold Cup is worth a few $$$$$$.

You really see that as a fair comparison or is glib just your mood for the evening?

The serial number is in the 800s so it is pretty rare.

Fair comparison IMO. I have to agree, the black powder 1911 is a travesty.
