New Acquisition - Krieghoff

wlyon · 07-28-2006, 06:18 PM

After 40+ years of collecting, I now own a Krieghoff! That completes my manufacturers (except for Spandau, ha ha!). It is a 1937, serial #7943, with all the correct markings in the right places, very good bore. Probably 85% bluing. Would be higher but barrel is faded. Thanks to John, Jerry and Ed!

Hey Bill..!

Why does your HK look familiar??!!

Seriously - a terrific addition to ANY collection!! As I mentioned in my e-mails when I was going through all the pictures you sent - you definitely scored a terrific Krieghoff.

My Best to you always, Bill - and thanks for posting these pics up for everyone to enjoy.

Ummm... (drool)... All I can say is (drool, drool)... that I'm very (drool) envious... (drool, drool, drool)........

You guys have some of the nicest toys...

Congrats on the fine score!
