GOOD DAY EVERYONE……

I know this is a bit early but some people will have to do their planning now to save money to spend and on trips…….

The Alberta Arms and Cartridge Collectors Association

Aka

The Calgary Gunshow, Canada’s Finest Arms and Military Collectors Show

Will be held March 25th and 26th 2016 at the BMO Centre, Calgary, Alberta, Canada…..

A few pictures from last year......

Good Morning Everyone......

Well the show is over for another year...... Three days and the feet are sore and the throat is sore from talking to the many friends that I have not seen in a long time but to tell the truth the wallet is not to bad off......

Was able to only pick up 2 QSA's 1 to the 5th Dragoon Guards and 1 to the CIV...... More on these later....

Did pick up, but not, BW related an 1856 Bandmans Sword (Have seen a number of these but not with scabbard) and a Victorian Cross Belt with pouch and badge and a few other badges......

Was offered a Canadian Scouts badge for $850.00 but was way to much......

Then a civilian non collector came to my table with a large number of WW1 Canadian singles and groups that I could not resist......

$850!

I had long thought that the world has gone mad, but, even if Canadian Dollars, that is still in excess of £400, if US Dollars, then rather more.
Quite frankly, Lord Cardigan made less outrageous "charges"

Sounds fantastic Mike. Look forward to hearing and seeing more

Afternoon Everyone.....

Here are a couple of pictures of my finds.....
