ANOTHER Military Arms Collector is on the loose.
Today, I walked my son-in-law through one vault of the collection. Wade had never handled a M1884 Trapdoor, a M1898 Krag Rifle, a Tokarev M1940 or a Swiss M1911 Rifle. At the end of the tour, he had a thousand questions about various arms. He is relieved to know he will get them all one day in my Will.
I see a few happy years of shooting, cleaning and reloading for various arms. I must say an eager Pilgrim makes this task all the better. I will get to tell the pedigree of each arm as I know it. I will rest easier in the hereafter knowing my treasured arms are in very good hands. Adam

Always nice to know they will be appreciated by somebody else down the road. Maybe someday I will get that feeling myself.
