Well, I am back from the two large gunshows (Louisville & Charlotte)
we attended as well as our Alaskan vacation in-between.

We were able to purchase several hundred firearms at those shows,
and plan to publish them in several "New Stuff" lists over the next
week or so.

Unfortunately, I somehow screwed-up my camera and it will no longer
function, so until I replace it (likely tomorrow) I am unable to
take any photos of this "New Stuff" at all.

In the interim I decided to resurrect our Russian-captured 98k
rifles page at http://www.empirearms.com/Nazi-98k.htm that we were
able to acquire.

In addition, I have some fantastic FINN items to offer you:

FINN Model 23 Luger semiautomatic pistol (9mm), mfg. at DWM in the
late 1920's or early 1930's (undated). Very Good Plus to Near
Excellent condition, with very little external holster-wear on the
90% or better blued finish. Bores are a little worn but mirror-
bright. All have Tikka-marked 4 & 3/4" barrels, left side of
receiver [SA] marked. All include one period magazine and either
worn walnut grips (with round quarter-sized spot in right grip for
unit-disc) or replacement black-plastic grips. All still retain
their Finn arsenal-tags. Only a few available. . . $1150.

FINN Model 39 Mosin Nagant bolt-action rifles (7.62x54R) in
EXCELLENT-PLUS condition. All have literally 100% bluing and close
to perfect bores. The wood is literally AS-NEW with postwar stocks
having the usual round plug-repairs and only very (if any) tiny
handling-marks.

MOST (but not all) still have their arsenal-tags still attached.

B-barrels. . . $350
VKT-barrels. . $375
Tikka-barrels (rare) . . . $495

These are literally the NICEST Funn M39's I have personally ever
seen offered for sale!

Our phones (and our FAX line) are currently inop due to all the rain
we have been experiencing over the past week, so EMAIL US at
kroh@... if you wish to order any of these.

At any rate keep your eyes open for several "New Stuff" lists over
the next week or so.

Good luck, and GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!
