number of years now. David is also a Benefactor / Founding member of the

Our inventory for sale - as well as prime examples from David's personal collection - is routinely displayed at popular antique and collectable firearms shows throughout the United States. This website, coupled with our periodic catalogs, and attendance at major shows adds a new venue to the ongoing endeavor to have the finest collectable firearms to satisfy the wants and needs of every collector.
