You know, if I can ever make it up to the Kamloops show you and I could make one heck of an Enfield display.
I so need to do this myself.

That is a very interesting thought. I remember when a member of the Sask. Gun Collectors Assoc. a Gun Show was a SHOW and if something sold it went between displayers and never the public.

I have a pretty extenisve ammunition collection and would like to take it to a show but how do you justify paying well over a hundred dollars for table rent? Our shows were free to exhibitors and the "gate" charges made the show break even. Times have changed.

You know if I ever get back to Germany I would be happy to do that. Would prefer to take you to Muellers Shooting Range and buy you dinner... you get to drive. I owe Peter Laidler for something so possibly he would like to join us...LOL

I also remember in the early 60's when we started the AACCA and CHAS in Alberta if you got caught selling something or buying something within the show you were out the door. It was a GUN SHOW!!!! plain and simple. If you had a deal going you had to take it outside. After the first show we ran in Edmonton it took me almost a year to run down all the leads for items that people wanted to sell, trade or even give away. Many, just to get something out of the house. How times have changed.....Now many at the shows can ask the vendors: "what flavour beef jerky do you sell" and "are those genuine "Beanie Babies"???"

That would be great fun!!! And after this i would take both of you to my home for a good glass of beer and some good talking . Don. if you ever find your way to Germany it would be a great pleasure to me to take you at the MSZ and show you my corner of the world!

I have a M82 Cooey as well as a civillian M75?? Cooey.
I quite like them, but they have absolutley terrible triggers, is yours the same??.

Would be interested to know if they are all like this.
I'm in the process of trying to get them a bit better.

The trigger on my 82 is pretty decent (I don't think any are very good) and thus a accurate gun. Possibly I find the trigger acceptable as I grew up and still shoot my Cooey 39 which has a similar trigger. I also have the "peep sight" for it and will have to install it one of these days. Haven't shot the 82 in over a year so should take it out soon.

I sincerely appreciate your offer however am worried the shipping costs would be outrageous.

I have spent the last three years finding these so think I will hold on to them for a little longer.
