Bit short notice i know, but there is a Section 1 Arms Fair on at The Scotch Corner Hotel, North Yorkshire (just off the A1 junction A66 west) this Sunday 18th February from 10am to 4pm.

This is a unique event for Section 1 shooters and collectors of classic military rifles and accessories.

I`ll be there with my cheque book

Desirable and cheap?

You can't be talking about "the great British gun trade" there Peter.

If you were it would be an oxymoron.

Plenty of desirables Peter i am sure there would have been something to tempt you..... .22 trainers, Smellies, No.5`s, No.4`s, Martini`s, Snider`s, a L42 in its chest complete with all the accessories, G98`s, K98`s Swede Mausers, 03A3, stacks of obsoletes and some more modern stuff which i did`nt take too much notice of.

A small fair without the usual plethora of badges and buttons, Just quality firearms and related accessories / books.

Did you bring anything home with you Joe? It sounds like I missed a good show. Are they having another one sometime?

Regards

Peter i am still waiting for my FAC coming back from renewal but i do have my name on a Lee Speed (one of Jims old collection) and a 98AZ, which used to be mine, but which i traded for a Long Lee Volunteer on the understanding that i got first dibs if the guy wanted to sell it on. I didnt want to part with it in the first place but i was f***ing desperate to get my hands on the Long Lee and the guy with the LL wouldnt do a deal unless he could have the AZ. (Does that make sense?)

Anyway, it is coming home to Daddy now

I believe the Arms Fair will be held again just not sure when, unfortunately it coincided with the big Birmingham Fair this time.

heres a small selection of the kit there...
