I am visiting friends down at the SAR West show in Phoenix.

Picking up anything?

 

[johngaltshrugged]

Were those all Maxims?

Picking up anything?

I bought a nice bayonet for my early FN FAL.

 

[JGalt]

Were those all Maxims?

Brownings, I thought. But after looking them up, I think they're Vickers or Maxims.

Almost all are original German Maxims. The one at far left in the picture is a Chinese copy.

Type A?

 

[westwall]

Type A?

No, Type B.

I already had the A and the C. Those are common.

In your condition, do you think it wise to own a gun?

 

[bodecea]

NEED MORE GUNS!

 

[westwall]

In your condition, do you think it wise to own a gun?

Sure, my advanced age dictates I buy more guns!

 

[westwall]

NEED MORE GUNS!

Need? Nah. Want?

You betcha!

In fact I am eying one that is probably more than you make in a year.

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

NEED MORE GUNS!

In your case ......NEED MORE STRAPONS!!!

I saw this and couldn't stop laughing. I had heard rumors about this when I was in college, but, because I wasn't in a frat I never was able to confirm its existence till now!

This hung in a frat house from the 50's into the 1970's. It was Amnesty Registered as a Destructive Device in 1968.

Too cool for school!

That's a WW2 German Panzerschreck. You could actually buy those back in the 60's for a couple hundred bucks. But after the GCA of '68, it had to be deactivated to BATF specifications by drilling some holes in the sides. You'd probably never ever find one the the rockets that thing fired.
