The guns that I sold on CGN over the years.

Just beautiful! I have an original 1865 Spencer and an 1863 Sharps in 50-70 like yours that I love. There’s just something special about 19th century American firearms.

This is what some of the WWII guns got replaced with. (No registration required.)

contact148 mentioned Finn Nielsen as having examined my MP40 and Lanchester smg.

I ran across Finn Nielsen's name when I was researching Bruce Strader a dealer in Smiths Falls who I bought two guns from.

It is a bit of a sad story-- Bruce went deaf and the authorities withdrew his dealers license.
He was licensed for 12.3 & 12.2 guns and had a huge collection of WWII--modern and antique guns.
His wife pressured him to sell his stuff due to his health and it was sold at Switzer's Auction on June 1 2013.
Bruce died on March 17 2015 at age 74.

I used to visit him during my summer holidays as my cottage was not far from where he lived.
We fired the PPSh-41 shown below in his backyard using 9mm blanks---he had two barrels as this gun was used for re-enacting by one of his friends (Victor). Bruce was selling this gun for his friends' estate.

The Winchester M97 Trench Gun show below was a beautiful piece. (Both have been sold)
