That leaves me breathless. Saw some these pictures up stairs in the gunwriters forum. Simply amazing, there are museums with smaller collections. Would love to wander around and just look. Awesome collection.

I'm a big "form follows function" guy. I think that's what makes me a Savage 99 guy. With that said, how awesome are the green patio chairs with carpet remnants for cushion? Love it.

Such a great display with so many quality items and what do I wonder about? What is the lever gun hanging at the top pretty much cut out of the picture? I swear, I go to a big gun show stare at thousands of great guns, but I have to know what is in the case in a guys hand in the parking lot or walking around!!

First thoughts were how much it reminded me of the used gun floor at Kittery Trading Post up in Maine. Like bein' a kid in a candy store.

Yep, 6 years. The book has been out almost 4. Sales have really slowed down.

Don . doesn't look like your slimming down the collection any ..
I've been over to Don's place. he's got quite a collection of some nice stuff and that's the downstairs of his vault .. his lombard stuff is upstairs there's a lot of knowledge in that guy's head .
Thanks again for the trade Don Paul
for those of you who don't know what lombards are maybe Don would post up a few pictures I think it would interest a lot of you guys
