Militaria in general, and WWII and Vietnam collectibles in particular are drying up. For years I did the rounds of First Mondays here in Texas and always found something interesting and reasonably...
I see the Western Australia buy-back program ended yesterday. Were there options for you to retain your hunting rifles without becoming a criminal today?
You're very welcome. Yes, David has a ton of rare, interesting, and unique militaria for sale but you haven't seen anything yet until you see his personal collection.
