WOW, all those in only a year! Here I only have once after 20+ years! That police headgear insignia looks a little lonely in that case by itself...

Hello Rick, that's quite the impressive collection you have there! Eek Any "shooters" among them? Regards, Leipzig
P.S. that's a clever statement at the bottom of your posts about the "second mouse", never heard that one before! Big Grin

You had a busy year. I saw that you were at the luger forums a lot. Very nice collection.

Rick,

Very nice! My collecting seems to be either feast or famine. You did good the last year so it must have been raining lugers in your bailiwick. Police guns have been turning up in my neighborhood but now I know where all the lugers went.

Nice grouping of Lugers Rick. Yes, I agree that is a lot to find today in collector grade within a year. Eek Congrats!

I also really like the RAD Leader with the orange grip. Cool

I've found them easy to find. It's finding them at a price I'm willing to pay that's the tough part! Smile

Creative display Rick!
I'm guessing, the artillery model is a quite a bit more elusive?
Thanks for posting the photos.
