SMOF7530 - PROJECT GUN! WINCHESTER MODEL 75 SPORTER (1940) RESTORATION PROJECT (MISSING BOLT) Serial number 11096 made in 1940. Easily identified by the figured wood in the walnut stock, checkered wrist and forend, and "SPORTING" marking on the trigger guard. When new, these were beautiful guns, as well as extremely accurate, based on the Model 75 target rifle.

Having successful sales of their top of the line Model 52 .22 target rifles in a "sporting rifle" configuration, they introduced a Model 75 sporter in 1939. This was designed for handier field use. It had a shorter (23.5 inch), slimmer barrel, a hand-checkered lighter-weight stock, and one-inch sling swivels. The action and barrel received the identical care lavished on its big brother target rifle. The stock had a specially designed "shotgun" butt and steel buttplate and a pistol grip with a hard rubber cap and a semi-beavertail forearm. The walnut stock was nicely finished. The 5-round magazine was the same as was used in most Winchester .22 bolt action rifles (69, 75 and 52). Sight options were the Winchester number 32 open rear sight on the barrel, or a Lyman number 57-E micrometer receiver sight. The front sight was a metallic bead on a ramp integral with the barrel, and included a sight cover. Weight was an easy-to-carry 5 pounds, 8 ounces.

The "Sporting" Model 75s are pretty hard to find and even more so in the pre-war era. The bore of this rifle is bright and shiny with strong lands and grooves, find a bolt, fix a few stock boo boos, and refinish the wood and metal and you will have a representative example to enjoy at a reasonable price.

SMOF7507 - PROJECT GUN! SAVAGE STEVENS MODEL 73Y 22 CALIBER The Savage Stevens Model 73Y is a single-shot, bolt-action rifle chambered in .22 LR. It was manufactured by the Savage Arms Company, which later became the Stevens Arms Company. The Model 73Y was a low-cost option for shooters, and it quickly became popular for its accuracy and dependability. It was a youth model, which had a shorter stock and barrel, making it more manageable for young and smaller shooters.

This rifle has a broken trigger guard and maybe other problems as well. Possibly a source for salvageable parts, or a tinkerers delight.

It is important to note that this rifle should be thoroughly inspected by a qualified gunsmith before firing to ensure that it is safe to use and to check if any repairs or replacement parts are needed. All of our project guns are sold AS IS, and all sales are final. Since this includes a receiver, it has to be sold as a firearm and must go to a FFL. If 2 project long guns are purchased at the same time shipping for the second one is free. $65.00 (View Picture)

SMOF7473 - VINTAGE HEALTHWAYS PLAINSMAN 175 CO2 PISTOL The Healthways Plainsman was designed and first produced in the sixties it`s a good shooter as well as being quite well made, robust and reliable. These types of guns use compressed air or gas to propel a small projectile. They are often used for plinking, and pest control. The 0.177 caliber refers to the diameter of the pellet being used. It is a smaller caliber pellet, which typically results in a higher muzzle velocity and flatter trajectory when compared to larger caliber pellets.

This pistol is in very good condition with only a slight amount of wear. $45.00 (View Picture)

**NEW ADDITION** 1180 HANDSOME CANVAS SWAN DECOY BY JIMMY GARRETT - Jimmy Garrett (1945-2012) lived in Shawboro, NC, between the Currituck and Albermarle Sounds. Garrett was retired Coast Guard cook, and an avid hunter, guide and decoy maker. His large swan decoys have always been preferred for use on the open Currituck Sound, and he marked his work with initials JG in a block style on the bottom. This handsome bird was found in that area about 35 years ago. Construction is typical wood board bottom with a keel piece. Nine wire frames covered by canvas. Graceful carved wooden neck and head is made in two pieces with the joint opening slightly from age. White paint on the body has lots of age cracks that add character. A friendly looking collectible bird that can be used in various decorative arrangements in the house, porch, or gun room. (Size about 25" long by 11" wide by 15' tall. The wood base is 11" x 21"). A slightly larger version (30 inches long) sold for $1,500 in 2021 https://www.lelandlittle.com/items/427251/jimmy-garret-canvas-over-wire-swan/ $225.00 (View Picture)

**NEW ADDITION** 1287 U.S. GI M1 CARBINE SLING WITH “D” TIPS - The first type of M1 carbine sling used thin ”C” shaped tabs at the ends to keep them from unraveling. Later they switched to a heavier solid tip that looks like the letter D. This is an okay late WW2 through Vietnam era sling with the OD webbing and “D” tips. No markings, which is typical. There is some rust and moderate to heavy pitting on the metal parts, and little of the parkerized finish remains. What you see is what you get. $35.00 (View Picture)

**NEW ADDITION** 1155 U.S..MODEL 1882 HEADLESS SHELL EXRACTORS for .45-70s- BARGAIN LOT OF 10 - Comes with 10 photo copies of the original instructions for use. Condition is new old stock with some storage rust accumulated over the last 140 years, most will clean to excellent, a few to only good, but all are cheap. Ruptured cartridge extractors were the legacy of Gen Custer's unfortunate Indian encounter where some of the copper cases of early .45-55 carbine ammunition ruptured, and troopers tried to dig them out with knives, leaving them victims of the attacking Indians. Although the Army changed to brass cases which were stronger and hardly ever ruptured, the ghosts of the 7th Cavalry forced them to develop and issue these tools long after they had any really useful purpose. BARGAIN LOT OF 10 with instructions for only $65.00 (View Picture)

**NEW ADDITION** 1291 HANDSOME ZINC POWDER FLASK WITH CHARGER TOP - Zinc flasks are often found in lousy condition as the metal is easily crushed and tends to be eaten away by certain chemical reactions. This one is in great shape with nice embosses pattern on both side. Measure has non-adjustable measuring spout with internal spring. No markings noted, probably American made, but perhaps an import. Overall length about 7.5 inches. Date is probably circa 1840-1870 but these remained in use until the end of the percussion era. Based on the size of the powder measure, this is probably for a rifle in the .40-50 caliber range, and would be nice for display with a half stock or full stock rifle of that era. Nice mellow patina to the brass. $65.00 (View Picture)

**NEW ADDITION** 1285 RARE ORIGINAL CIRCA 1856 NAUTICAL CHART OF PART OF CALIFORNIA COAST- SANTRA BARBARA AREA - This is an ORIGINAL and rare early navigational charts of our newly gained Pacific coast territories. These original ship's charts are from the 1853-1870 period, produced by lithograph engraving (black ink on rag paper) and lost in a government warehouse which handled chart distribution until the 1980s. Still flat, not folded, these really look nice framed. (Never folded, will ship carefully rolled) Charts of the period show the land area and terrain using standard topographic symbols, and soundings of coastal waters. One or more additional sketches show the view(s) of key navigational points to allow proper recognition, and tables list latitude/ longitude of key points and tidal information. These were essential to seafarers. Very historic and decorative items. This is "Preliminary Survey of ANACAPA ISLAND and EAST END OF SANTA CRUZ ISLAND" SCALE 1:30,000 dated 1856. Paper size 33" wide by 12 1/2 " tall, with image about 26" x 9 1/2".

1230 SPANISH AMERICAN WAR & PHILIPPINE INSURRECTION ERA HAVERSACKS - We have several of these, and will list a few at a time. These came from Bannerman’s Island back in the 1960s, and reflect a mix of models and varied state or federal markings. A- Model 1878 (I think)- with 13 inch wide flap. This one was made at Watervliet Arsenal and has a unit mark 36 A on the inside of the flap, along with a large ink stamped marking in an oval STATE ARSENAL SPRINGFIELD and date that looks like APR 8 1898. The only “State Arsenal” located in Springfield was in Illinois. This undoubtedly was received and issued for the Spanish American War, then returned and the old unit markings on the flap painted over for later reissue. At some point it got a large dark stain on the flap we did not attempt to clean. Suspension is by two brass loops, which would have been used with the leather haversack strap. Used fair to good $20.00 B- Model 1878 (I think)- with 13 inch wide flap. No maker mark, but unit mark 4A over 40 in a keystone on the inside pocket, and NGP (National Guard of Pennsylvania) on the front flap. Suspension is by two brass loops, which would have been used with the leather haversack strap, later modified by addition of two small hooks to connect to a waist belt after 1902. Bottom of the sack has some holes from dry rot, and the buckle for the flap is missing. Used fair to poor $15.00 C- Model 1900 or 1902 (?)- with 12 inch flap size, not maker marked. Has snaphooks instead of the earlier brass loops. Front flap nicely marked [crossed cannon] B IOWA 21. Ovrall G-VG except missing the buckle for the flap strap. $20.00 SPECIAL- TAKE ALL 3 for only $45.00 (View Picture)

1107 WW2 U.S. NAVY SHIP’s MAGNETIC COMPASS - Made by A. Leitz, San Francisco, serial number 25243, circa 1943. This is the standard 7 ½ inch (dial size) magnetic compass used on all ships for the helmsman to steer by. The earth’s magnetic field is cheap and reliable with no need for electricity, satellites or anything else, and mariners have used magnetic compasses to keep on course for hundreds of years. Ships usually had two of them, one on the bridge directly in front of the ship’s [steering] wheel or “helm” for the helmsman or quartermaster to use. A second compass would be located on the emergency navigation or bridge location, usually located in the after part of the ship, and called “secondary conn” for use in case the bridge and main compass are knocked out. The magnetic compass is housed in a “binnacle” or case with a light shining underneath the compass to illuminate the dial. Two large iron “quadrantal spheres” (also known as “the navigator’s balls”) are mounted near the compass and carefully adjusted along with a number of other small magnets for fine adjustment to compensate for the deviation caused by the magnetic field from several thousand tons of steel in the ship. (In order to get “true north” it was also necessary to know the variation in the earth’s magnetic field which varies greatly in various parts of the globe). Thus mariners must calculate “true, variation, magnetic deviation, or compass” when speaking of directions. (The mneomic for remembering the sequence is taught as “True virtue makes dull company” or “Can dead men vote twice?”) Ships also used gyro compasses, which are great and allowed numerous “repeaters” where the compass card would be electronically controlled to indicate true north. These were preferred for navigation, and the helmsman had one of these also, adjacent to the magnetic compass. The helmsman would report “steering course 065 degrees true, checking 059 magnetic” so as to have the proper backup to use in case of gyro failure. Okay, all you lubberly wannabe sailors, here is your chance to go all Moby Dick or John Paul Jones, or Joshua Slocum and have your very own fully operational magnetic compass. With all that climate change going on you might need an ark and therefore a compass as well. This one was made circa 1943 by A. Lietz Company in San Francisco, a prolific maker of nautical instruments under contract for the U.S. Navy which also procured critical items like this for the U.S. merchant marine during WW2. Extreme width is about 12 inches, and about 5.5 inches high, weight about 25 pounds, with heavy weights on the underside of the frame for the compass bowl. The compass card floats on the liquid filling (alcohol, I think) able to freely move with small magnets under the card to seek magnetic north. The bowl is actually a large brass casting, with heavy weights on the bottom to keep it sitting level. There are two “knife edge” projections on opposite sides, which fit into an outer circular frame which also has two knife edges oriented 90 degrees from the others. Those fit into “V” slots on the frame of the binnacle as a gimbal mounting, allowing the compass to remain horizontal as the ship pitches or yaws. We have for sale, the compass with its frame, ready to drop into your binnacle. (You do have a binnacle, don’t you? NOTE- the binnacle in the photos is NOT included and NOT for sale- that one came off USS PARLE (DE-708) before it was sunk as a target.) This is a great display item for any nautical or naval themed collection or display. $350.00 (View Picture)

1084 EUROPEAN(?) RIFLE/SNIPER RIFLE/LMG CARRYING CASE - What you see is what you get. Not sure about anything as it came in from an estate with no info. Material is cotton with a coarser weave than on U.S. gear, nylon carrying strap, and a leather reinforced tip. Only marks found are “V” on the leather tip, and some sort of triangle inspector(?) mark on the inside. About 51 inches long and 7.5 inches wide, so will fit most full size rifles (M1 Garand, SMLE, K98k, etc). May be very rare collector prize, or common junk. About new condition. Only think I know for sure is that the price is cheap at only $15.00 (View Picture)

890 U.S. .45-70 TRAPDOOR BAYONET SCABBARD BARGAIN SCRAP - What you see is what you get. These came in with a lot of stuff we got many years ago from a guy who worked at Bannerman’s island in the fading era as the island operations ceased, but before the disastrous fire which destroyed the “Island Arsenal.” Trapdoor scabbards used a triangular metal body about 18 inches long with a leather “frog” at the top for attachment to the waist belt. The frogs came in various styles over the years, from a simple folded leather for a belt loop then a swivel with a leather belt loop, and later with a swivel having a folded long brass tongue which would slip up behind the Mills woven web belts and slip into a cartridge loop. Alas, exposure to weather and vermin on the island long ago destroyed the leather frogs, leaving what you see here. If you want something mint, read no further, cause it ain’t here. If you like a challenge, or a relic souvenir, or can visualize some artistic project, or need something to throw at your neighbor’s cat, then check out these fantastic, historic bargains! SPECIAL DEAL- TAKE THEM ALL FOR $75.00 and we promise not to tell your spouse.

A- GLITTERING MISERY- Two NICKEL PLATED scabbards, one with a partial white leather frog, overall fair to poor, but CHEAP! Both for only $8.00 (View Picture)
B- PICK OF THE LITTER- A complete, fairly decent example with the Hoffman swivel loop with the short belt loop. Stitching is failing, but still mostly there. Probably a marriage of a very early frog with a late 1885 body, but looks good anyway. $25.00 (View Picture)
D- THREE GOOD BODIES (relatively speaking)- Three scabbard bodies with lots of original blue finish, mixed with a little rust, and a free bonus bunch of rust on one of them. The little metal tabs which held the leather frogs are all missing from these, but these could be worked into something useful, maybe. $18.00 (View Picture)
E- THREE ALMOST GOOD BUT RUSTY BODIES (they could be worse!)- Three scabbard bodies with some original blue finish, with some additional FREE rust. The little metal tabs which held the leather frogs are all missing from these, but these could be worked into something useful, maybe. $15.00 (View Picture)
F- TWO WITH TABS- One okay one, and one with lots of blue but some crushing near the tip. Metal tabs for the frog are intact. Both for only $10.00 (View Picture)
G- TWO UGLY DUCKLINGS WITH SPLIT TABS- Rusty, but these have the metal tabs- an early type which is split and used a rivet to secure the frog. Both for only $8.00 (View Picture)
H- FEELING FROGGY?- One M1885 scabbard with frog attached but badly torn as shown in the photo. Two M1885 frogs, with dry leather, one poor, one pretty good. One Civil War type frog, looks a little small, and uses iron rivets hollow on one end so I suspect it may be Bannerman cadet or something, but I do know it is in excellent condition. Finally, one loose body I fair to good condition. Whole freaking froggy pile of relics for only $15.00 (View Picture)

**SOLD** SMA2802 WWII German P.08 (Luger) Holster Reproduction Luftwaffe - The leather of this holster is a pleasing brown color, it is stamped on front with the Luftwaffe eagle, it is stamped on back with ``Karl Bocker /1939 / Warbrol / E / WaA721 P.08`` Since this is a reproduction, the finish of the holster would rate about 99%. The stitching is excellent. The leather including the flap and buckle strap is supple and in almost new condition. Overall a very nice Luger holster at an expensive price. $35.00 (View Picture)

538 U.S. MODEL 1873 BAYONET FOR .45-70 TRAPDOOR #4 - Nice blade on this one with lots of original blue, except for the front six inches where the finish is gone, but the metal excellent. The socket and shank are rusted and moderately to heavily pitted. The stud to limit the rotation of the locking clasp is broken- but it will fasten to the rifle okay, and you can fix it or not bother, as you please. An okay example for a bow-wow to marginal condition trapdoor .45-70 at a bargain price $50.00 (View Picture)

393 U.S. MODEL 1873 .45-70 BAYONET CUT TO CADET LENGTH- CHEAP! - This had the regular 18 inch blade, but someone cut it to about 15 ¾”, close enough to the 16 inch length of the cadet bayonet for most people.

18140 U.S. MODEL 1907 LEATHER RIFLE SLINGS- YOU CLEAN AWAY THE UGLY AND YOU SAVE! - I have had several boxes of these lurking in the corner for 20+ years, but I really hate to mess around cleaning leather. Some people swear by saddle soap, others insist that Black Rock is good stuff, while some claim that Pecard is a miracle elixir, and elitists will allow nothing but British Museum Leather Dressing to grease their palms. I just swear a lot even thinking about messing with leather at all, so don’t ask me which is best. Everyone agrees that neatsfoot oil is a kiss of death and will destroy leather quickly, so DO NOT USE NEATSFOOT OIL!!! So, my procrastination compounded annually adds up to huge savings for you. I have divided these into three categories- I don’t want to mess around taking individual photos, but here is one photo of the box of dead cow parts. You need to trust me to sort these into the three categories to fit your budget and zeal for messing with old leather. (View Picture)

18140 Grade I- Leather basically good with moderate stretching or surface cracking but dirty and grungy although still pretty flexible. Hardware on the long strap and short strap will match (both brass or both steel). Brass likely to have green crud (verdi gris) growing between brass and leather. Some do nd some don't have faint markings which may become legible with cleaning, but maybe not. Will have both of the leather sling keepers, but color may not match, as we replace missing ones with new made replacements. When cleaned these will be okay for most average U.S. military rifles of the 20th century, plus shotguns. Not a great choice for those high ondition gun, but if you are buying those, you can afford to pay a bit more and get a really nice sling instead of looking in the dumpster for bargains. ONE GRADE I UGLY SLING for $55.00
18140 Grade 2- Less nice than Grade I, but still salvageable, just taking a bit more patience and elbow grease (plus magic leather goop). Leather might be a bit stiffer, more surface cracks, more stretching, major color mimatch between leather parts, or just got whooped harder with the ugly stick than the others. ONE GRADE 2 UGLY SLING FOR $45.00
18140 Grade 3- Too ugly to take home to Momma, so these went to the trash. We won’t sell trash.

14842 HISTORY OF OGDEN AIR MATERIAL AREA - HILL AIR FOCE BASE, UTAH 1934-1960 (TWO VOLUMES). By Helen Rice, OOAMA Historian. Volume 1 is 273 pages and is the narrative history with photos and lots of info on activities at the command which focuses on logistics and overhaul and maintenance, with peak effort during the WW2 years and Korea, working on all types of new and reconditioned aircraft. Note that while the OAMA is located on the same base as the Ogden Arsenal which engaged in weapons and munitions manufacture and logistics, these do not even mention Ogden Arsenal activities. (Much to my disappointment). Volume 2 is the companion chronological and statistical volume about 150 pages covering 1934-1961. BOTH volumes for $12.00 (View Picture)

21837 NEAT VINTAGE BRITISH MILITARY SMALL ARMS AMMUNITION CRATES - The labels show this as last packed with 500 rounds of .303 British Tracer ammunition in 1944. These uniquely British ammo crates trace their origin to the Crimean War era when appalling waste of paper cartridges shipped in wooden casks or barrels was rectified by changing to sturdy wooden crates, with a sliding trapezoidal panel in the center of the top which opens for access to the ammunition. Over the next 90 years, the basic concept was pretty much unchanged, except for addition of a soldered tin lining in 1870, and variations in size as cartridges and packets/cartons evolved. Similar crates were also used for handgun ammunition. Originally all wood (except for screw and nail fastenings, the sliding lids had some metal strips added, and wire rope replaced fiber rope on the lifting loop on one end of the crate. The lid was secured by a straight cotter key passing down a hole into a matching hole in the side of the crate. The cotter pin had a stout cord with a pull ring attached, which lay in cutouts in the lid, with a staple and paper seals to detect tampering. A search in the “List of Changes would probably turn up an exact date for this Mark of crate, likely circa 1887 when the .303 cartridge was adopted for the new Enfield rifles. For more history on similar crates in the Snider and Martini era see https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/britishmilitariaforums/577-british-enfield-cartridge-box-question-t6133-s20.html. We have two of these, both in similar well used and aged condition, with the tin liners intact (but opened). Both are branded on one end with N over H3 over I, and have numerous mostly illegible and tattered labels. Leather wrapping on the lifting loop is rough. Although made in vast numbers most were trashed or burned in the field and I have only seen a handful on the collector market. Price is $49 each, order as 21837A or 21837B if you have a preference, or take both for $80.00 (View Picture)

21617 1stEdition- BLUE BOK OF ANTIQUE AMERICAN FIREARMS AND VALUES - By S.P. Fjestad and John B. Allen, 2016, 400 pages soft cover. I wanted to like this book and hoped it would be a worthy successor to Flayderman’s Guide to Antique American Firearms and Their Values, which was last updated in 2007. However, it is not even close and I glanced through it after purchase and decided that it was not worth a place in my library. It is not clear what the scope of the book is, but it seems to be almost entirely pre-1898 with some overlap for models made both pre and post 1898. Flayderman covered collectible American arms basically 1940 and earlier. The “regular” blue book includes post-1898 arms, so perhaps that justifies the cutoff date. It’s big feature is lots of pretty color photos, mainly from auction catalogs, and as with the Blue Book tradition a “photo percentage grading system” that is informative. However, the book is organized strictly alphabetically by maker, not by major maker or type of firearm as was the case with Flayderman. Thus, someone interested in U.S. martial arms has to know the names of all the possible contract makers of 1816 muskets to find them all listed individually, instead of as a family in one spot. Even then, this book has chosen to list Springfield Armory Model 1892-1899 Krag rifles and carbines under a “Krag-Jorgenson” section instead of Springfield Armory. The historical information on each gun is scant at best, lacking such essentials as total made. There is a serious lack of information on how to distinguish one model or variant from another. The Krag section has about 15 column inches of text (in large type) and nearly as much space to pretty pictures with little explanatory information. The values listed are way off from what I have experienced buying and selling in the last 2-3 years. Flayderman devoted four entire pages to Krags, and is overall 800 pages, twice the size of this book. Some items are listed in this Blue Book more than once, with vastly different values, which is inexplicable. The values listed reportedly are based on auction results, and vary from what I have observed in the marketplace. Sometimes auction results are badly skewed by two rabid bidders or the absence of anyone interested in a certain type of gun at that location on that date. Values are always a very subjective topic, and do fluctuate up and down based on selling venue and time and other variables. I believe Flayderman ran his values by a number of specialist experts for each of the sections in his books, and the consensus seems to be that the pretty much got them right. I get the feeling that this was more of a one man effort, a nearly impossible task given the scope of the arms covered. Overall, I find this book to be nearly useless as a result of poor organization, the decision to provide so severely limited information on each item, and the dubious credibility of the prices compared to the real collectors’ marketplace. However, if you want to look up a number this book will suffice, but in my opinion it is only useful for those who are satisfied by “price of everything and value of nothing.” I do not have room for this in my gun library, and strongly recommend others to find and cherish the last (9th edition) of Flayderman’s Guide to Antique American Firearms and Their Values for the exceptionally valuable and accurate detailed information contained in it, and its ease of use. If you cannot get the 9th, then any of the last several editions will suffice, as the value information will become less relevant over time, but the historical information (so severely lacking in the Blue Book) is essential for an informed collector, while pricing information alone may satisfy those to whom firearms are merely commodities with price tags on them to be traded for profit. Price for this practically unused copy which retails for $39.95 is only $15.00 (View Picture)

22051 BAYONET SCABBARDS OF ALL KINDS -

22051D- TWO U.S. MODEL 1

SCABBARDS FOR .45-70 TRAPDOORS One is rough condition with the steel body crusty rusty but overall dark and untouched. The leather loop is partially torn as show in the photos. Slap some epoxy on there and it will look okay. Second is the steel body only. These were secured to the leather frog with a rivet, and part of the tab holding the rivet has been broken off. Epoxy will do an even better job. Has old black paint finish over patina, not bad, not great. BOTH for only $35.00 (View Picture)

22051F- BRITISH PATTERN 1907 BAYONET SCABBARD- EARLY WW1 This is the early type with the tear drop shaped frog stud and arched shape on the throat and tip pieces. The black leather body has a nice smooth surface and waxed finish, with one scar and assorted minor scuffs, but pretty nice. The throat has traces of blue finish mixed with mostly patina and surface rust while the tip is mostly rusty, but these could be cleaned up and touched up with black paint as was the British practice. A good serviceable piece. $50.00 (View Picture)

22051G- BRITISH PATTERN 1907 BAYONET SCABBARD- EARLY WW1 This is the early type with the tear drop shaped frog stud and arched shape on the throat and tip pieces. The black leather body has a rough textured surface dyed black, and covered with yucky grease. The throat and tip pieces are mostly smooth with most of an old black paint finish but chipped and worn. A good serviceable piece. $45.00 (View Picture)

23063 BIG BORE CASES/CARTRIDGES FOR DECORATION, SPECIAL PROJECTS, PAPERWEIGHTS, CREMATION URNS, ETC -
23063C- WW1 FRENCH 105mm FIELD GUN BRASS CARTRIDGE CASE (105 x 390mmR) About 15.5” tall, this is the 105mm Schneider case for the Model 1913 105mm field guns used by France, but identical cases with different markings were used by Belgium, Austria, Norway and Poland (and probably by their opponents when captured). This one is dated May 1918 and except for the last two inches at the mouth is in pretty nice shape. However, the mouth is heavily corroded and has several age splits. A good relic of trench warfare, or trim it down for wind chimes or flower pot, or whatever you like. INERT- no flammable or explosive components. $49.00 (View Picture)

10588 U.S. MODEL 1917 ENFIELD UPPER HANDGUARDS (SUPER CHEAP WHOLESALE LOT!) - This is from a stash that was surplused out of Ogden Arsenal decades ago after they no longer needed them for overhaul of M1917 rifles. Brand new, U.S. GI surplus, never on a gun. Looks like most are varying shades of walnut, but a fewmay be one of the other species they used during WW1. None of these seem to have E/R/W markings so these may have been from a later contract. We have used dozens of these over the years, and some require a bit of hand fitting with a file or sandpaper, but are exactly how they came out of surplus. We have these listed elsewhere in lots of 10 for $25.00, but for the guy who wants to stock up and sell on eBay or at gun shows we will sell a bargain lot of 100 for only $150.00 (View Picture)

SMA2514 Magazine Walther Banner P.38 - This is a modern production magazine for P.38 and P.1 pistols. Quality and condition are excellent. $25.00 (View Picture)

SMA2655 Vintage Jay-Pee Spring Lock Safety Holster - Jay-Pee produced the Audley design after Audley went out of business. Holster is for a 4 inch .38 or .357 revolver. Holster is in good condition with a slight tear on the back of the belt loop that could be repaired. $15.00 (View Picture)

19964 M1 GARAND WALNUT BUTTSTOCKS- LOT OF 2- - What you see is what you get. Two U.S. GI walnut buttstocks in good serviceable condition. Toe area is worn a bit on one, but otherwise okay for use, but not top quality collector wood. One has a circle P on the grip, but no other cartouches visible. Good for building up into a shooter, or living history gun, or something you can use to keep the good stock from an otherwise lackluster rifle. Stripped, no hardware. BOTH FOR ONLY $85.00 (View Picture)

19963 M1 GARAND BUTTSTOCK- GRADE 3 - What you see is what you get. One birch stock with an epoxy repair near the toe.  Well used, not a great prize, but okay for drill rifles, or for putting on a low grade rifle as a loaner for living history or something like that, or making dummy rifles for use in a vehicle or barracks display. No cartouches or metal Cheap at only  $20.00 (View Picture)

7878 M1 GARAND STOCK SET (Buttstock and front and rear handguards)- CHEAP - What you see is what you get. These have a sloppy coat of reddish varnish type finish on them. Pretty sure the butt is Korean made from mahogany type wood, while the handguards are U.S. made, probably walnut. Small crack to the rear of the clip on the rear handguard, otherwise everything is sound. With some stripping and refinishing these would be good to put on a shooter or living history rifle so you can save a good stock set. CHEAP- $95.00 (View Picture)

19374 DEMBART CHECKERING TOOLS- LARGE LOT - This includes a three tool set for 16, 18, 20 and 24 lines per inch, along with two each skip line tools in 10 and 12 lines per inch, and a wide border tool and narrow border tool. Also included are four other tools which I am not sure about the exact designation, making a total of 24 tools. Gently used, and well cared for. Dembart checkering tools are the professional’s choice, and easy to use. When the cutters get dull, you can get replacements from Brownells or Midway. Price new would be over $250.00. Price for the lot $99.00 (View Picture)

SMA2515 Magazine Walther Banner P.38 - This is a modern production magazine for P.38 and P.1 pistols. Quality and condition are excellent. $25.00 (View Picture)

21104 LOT OF THREE M98 STYLE RIFLE STOCKS- CHEAP! - What you see is what you get. Three 98 Mauser rifle stocks. I think one is from a Yugoslavian rifle, one is from a Czech VZ-24 and I am uncertain about the other one. Hardware ranged from pretty well stripped, to nearly complete- see the photos for details. Condition ranges from good to excellent. Unfortunately, I do not know enough about the fine details of the Mauser world to be more specific about these, but I do know that it is a screaming good deal to get all three of these for only $135.00 (View Picture)

13541 CAMOUFLAGE STRIP MATERIAL FOR GHILLIE SUITS, NETS, VEHICLES, ETC - Genuine U.S. Military surplus, this comes on a roll and is a bit over 2 inches wide, and my guess is that the roll is probably about 50 yards, but strictly a guess. The roll is 10 inches diameter if that helps. Color is what I would describe as Vietnam era jungle green, sort of a yellowish green, not dark OD. Pretty sure it is Mildew Resistant Treated, as it has that nasty smell and the burlap material feels sort of waxy. This would be great for a Vietnam collector, or even WW2, or reenactors, or hunters or even paint ball types. I have four rolls I got to wrap around some shrubbery that we ended up cutting down. Price is $40 for the lot or four rolls, or buy one for $15.00 (View Picture)

7357 GI "SILVERWARE" BARGAIN- LOT OF 10 SPOONS - Genuine U.S. GI field mess spoons. (Sorry, no knives or forks, someone else is probably overloaded with them, and whining about how hard it is to eat soup with a darn fork or knife, but no spoon!). Stamped from stainless steel, these are type used from mid WW2 to present with a large hole in the handle to help hold them for dipping in boiling water to clean them. Marked with U.S. on the handle, and most have various maker marks on the back. Fine for WW2 thru Vietnam collections. Bargain- Lot of TEN spoons, used excellent to mint unissued. $10.00 (Have several lots of 10 if you need more) (View Picture)

22656 WW2 PISTOL BELT WITH POUCH FOR TWO M1 CARBINE MAGAZINES - WW2 era pistol belt and pouch for two M1 Carbine 15 round magazines. Used, good condition. Some blue paint(or paintball?) stains on inside of belt). Cheap history for only $25.00 (View Picture)

22401 U.S. GRENADE LAUNCHER SIGHT SET, M15- (GRADE 2) - Unissued but victim of poor storage. Sight and base are excellent but theinstruction sheet has gotten wet and most of the printed surface has flaked off. Snaps on the pouch are nasty looking. A good one for actual use, or for reenactors to avoid messing up a mint one. Complete with instructions/range table (condition as noted above), mounting plate (with screws) and web carrying pouch. These were issued with the M1903 Springfield, M1 Garand and M14 rifles and the M1 Carbine. These attach on the left side of the stock which requires drilling two holes. Please do not mess up a good stock by mounting this on your favorite rifle. Go out and pick up a junky stock with some repairs or something instead for this purpose. $10.00 (View Picture)

21981 LOT OF TWO M1903 SPRINGFIELD BOLTS - What you see is what you get. Lot of two M1903/03A3 Springfield bolt bodies with extractor ring in place. The firing pin holes have been welde shut for use on drill rifles, otherwise the look to be in pretty good shape. Have three sets, and photo shows worst one with some silver paint on one of the bolts over the parkerized finish. Use for a drill rifle, or some people rework them for actual use, but we advise agains that. Two bolts for only $10.00 (View Picture)

21978 LOT OF 14 ASSORTED BRISTLE BRUSHES FOR GUN CLEANING - What you see is what you get. Lot of 14 assorted bristl bushes with long twisted wire handles. Sometimes called "test tube brushes" these can be used for all sorts of gun cleaning, etc. CHEAP- the lot for $6.00 (View Picture)

Exact reproduction with every detail correct, except not maker marked. (We have marked inside of the belt loop "REPRO" so people will be able to tell the difference. These are made by our friends at American Patrol Company who do superb work on all sorts of repro web gear, and provided much of the gear used by Band of Brothers, Windtalkers, Saints & Soldiers, etc.) Free shipping on these either ordered singly or with other items. Two or more $50 each, or buy one for $55.00 (View Picture)

17784 LYMAN four cavity mold and handles 35891 (148 grain) - Lyman has been the largest maker of bullet molds for nearly 100 years now. These are usually found in single, double or four cavity versions, with the larger molds obviously being more productive in terms of bullets per hour. These are all precision manufacture tools and when properly cared for will last a long time. Besides a lower cost per bullet than buying them from commercial sources, there is also the benefit of not being dependent on commercial sources as you can cast your own bullets using an electric casting pot, or even an iron pot on your kitchen stove. (The latter practice invites nasty comments from mothers and spouses, I have learned.) By tinkering with the lead alloy and lubes and sizing procedures cast bullets can achieve excellent accuracy, and with gas checks they can get good velocity, although not as high as jacketed bullets. This is a used mold, casting the bullet described above. It comes complete with handles. Overall condition fine to excellent showing just normal wear. Note that the wooden grips on the handles are damaged but usable, but the blocks should work just fine $95.00 (View Picture)

9370 SPAN- AM 1898 NEWSPAPERS- BUFFALO, NY, COURIER (LOT OF 7) - Spanish American War Newspapers Filled with the latest reports, rumors, fears, speculation, patriotic trivia, local news and advertising for now quaint goods. Most have one or more illustrations, showing some military subject, map, person, or a non-war related item. Yellowed paper is 100+ years old now, so it is brittle and cannot be handled a lot. These have been folded twice, so present size is about 9" x 12" and when opened will be about 18" x 24" for a full page. Assorted minor rips and tears. Sorry, none with big headlines- MAINE BLOWN UP, or MANILA BAY VICTORY or anything like that, but lots of smaller events leading up to our victory.
