Does anyone here colllect old or antique guns, especially pistols? I am fascinated with all kinds of old stuff, guns are no exception.
I plan to start a serious pistol collection when my legal issues are finished. I want to get some old pistols, stuff like old police issue .38 revolvers, Lugers, Walther P38's, I saw a nice Colt 32.Auto at Reds about a year ago. Stuff like that. My uncle's got a vast collection of guns of all sorts spanning the 20th century. He's got WWI Mausers, Enfields, and Springfields, WWII M1's, Carbines, 1911's. Old British revolvers like Webleys and such.

, I would absolutely LOVE to buy an MG42, as that is the ultimate in my mind. The nice thing is there are plenty of "antiques" out there that aren't terribly uncommon and are still dirt cheap such as CZ52's, Tokarev TT-33's, Makarovs, most common WWII era bolt-actions, etc. AIM, CDNN, and some of the larger distributors seem to have a lot of at least these older handguns like TT-33's, Makarovs, etc for pretty cheap usually.
