I firmly agree. Militaria and military weapons I think will always have people drawn to them. The direct link to history. Good Civil War stuff has been a tough nut to crack for as long as I can recall. Tons of WWII stuff that the guys brought home have been hitting the market as those vets die off and there is always a big interest in all of it.

Sometime you have to go to the BIG 'Military Show of Shows at Louisville. It is amazing. The Hershey of military stuff. The stuff that shows up is incredible and the prices are right there too Lot of fun to see I met a grandson of Gen. Patton there two years ago and had a nice chat with him real nice down to earth guy.
