Yep, been buying pistols like this marked by the Germans like the 38h and Radoms. For the history and price point they are a no brainer in my mind.

And the other guy is going, you wouldn't believe what I got for this old bolt action rifle!
We'll see what worth more down the road.

Nice looking carbine.

Several years ago I bought a Sauer 38h off a guy. He also had one of these but only had cash for one. Been kicking myself ever since for not buying it. But one popped up today in a local ad and ran for it. I think is about a 1942. I like the German pistols that are under appreciated. Has some histor...

It kind of looks like a M1910 haversack

Those were in the boxwith the pistol? Awesome. I don't get sceered much, but it gives me the creeps to think what that pistol has been used for. I hope I find something like that in my lifetime. :thumbsup: No I ordered the Iron Cross and defense shield. They just happened to be waiting on me when I...

Went to Lubbock for work. Decided to hit a shop. Walked around 3 times and was about to leave and did a 180. Another P38. AC 44 this time. Just took it apart and everything matches. Has what I think is some blood pitting on the left side of the slide. Also had two items waiting on me when I got home...

Tell us you got a bargain..... I'm afraid the bargains are few and far between. I paid $280 for the crate and was glad to get it. At just shy of 32 cents a round its a good price by todays standard. Plus I get the tins and crate...if I can only figure out how to open it...no can opener with these c...

To me it's a little high. Most around here are selling around $250. Still some deals at 200 or less. The other day a listing for "old Russian rifle" was posted asking 150. It sold in 10 min. Was a mint polish M44.

No letters after serial should put it in the first batch of 44. January

I know what you mean. Just bought an iron cross and an infantry assault badge to make a display box with the P38. Will also include a pen knife my grandfather took off a German soldier he captured.

And two crates of the vz58 and 61's!!!

Sounds like I know where I'm going if I have to flee from here.

I have a 1911 one I got from Academy. Use it to plink beetles, spiders and other insects in the garage. It's actually pretty accurate. Also have a full auto MP40. BB's all over the garage. Lol

Same store has a cyq as well. Hoping it's still there when I have the gun fun replenished.

It's a wrist bolt. Adds strength to a weak spot.

Saw one at a store near Fort Worth this morning. It was a CAI import. But looked pretty close to being correct. Mixmaster numbers though.
