Ok, I'll start it. This little Ross Cadet found its way to my home by way of a fine Gun Nut and the EE. No sign of stamped numbers on the butt.

Not so much a 'purchase' as an 'acquisition'. A pic my Dad painted. He knows my love of 'Mustangs', so gave me this:

Picked this up at my LGS. A Walther P38 AC41 in very nice condition with a commercial factory finish. Matching numbers...even the grips! (Almost every little piece of this pistol is Waffenamt marked). Came with 2 mags neither of which match the the pistol.
Mag #1 is marked P.38v with an eagle over WaA135 (upside down) on the top of the spine
Mag #2 is marked P.38 with an eagle over 359 at the top of the spine and at the bottom. It is also has a serial number stamped on the bottom 8070 which does not match the pistol. (If anyone out there has a P38 with that serial number let me know). Mag #2 would be the correct matching magazine for this pistol if the serial number were matching. Mag #1 is a late war Mauser production magazine.

I picked up a holster for my Roth-Steyr at the Dugald gun show - the closure strap is missing and a quarter of the stitching is gone, but for $25 it was still a steal!

I have to suspect that it was not easy to get the correct holster for what I believe is a very rare piece?

Well, I thought it would be hard, but it turned out to be as easy as looking in the right direction when walking past the table with nothing else of interest to me on it!

You can load the 1907 Roth Steyr with out the chargers.

I had a charger in my collection, it was one loaded charger per cardboard box. (small)

From Bender's book you are also missing a strap that goes across the mag pouch. Still for $25... great grab. Wish I had seen it first but I was focused on other things. :D

Too bad we didn't met. I didn't realize you were in Manitoba.
