WACA is a pretty cool organization , and although lack of funds has kept me from becoming a member , I am still a member of the HPCA , High Point Collectors Association.
I wish I could make it to the show. That 38-40 colt would be going home with me. I'm actually camping in an old Cinnabar mine site in south west Texas as I type this....
I was just at the show. Very few peope were buying. The inventory was the best ive ever seen but it seems like the current market valuation is bit high for the level of demand. Also, the attendees were mostly 50 and up, myself included. Younger folks don't seem to care very much, echoed by my two teenage boys. Pulling into the venue parking lot, there were no signs that the show was even happening.
Mark, I would be very interested to see how you transport all of these rifles without damaging any of them. Do you have racks built into a small trailer?
I’m headed to Vegas now, but it’s for the World of Concrete. I’ll fly out on Friday morning returning home. I’ll have to put it on my list for next year though.
is that a 58 pontiac 4 door pillarless ? have you done a review and shoot with the 22 cal 1873 winchester ,i searched but could not find one, that may be interesting , cheers from down under
It's a 57 Mercury. I had planned to do an episode on that 22, but just ran out of time. If it doesn't sell at the show, you'll see it on a future episode.
Hi Chris. Erin and I went to the SHOT show last year. We not going to make it this year, though. Jump on the tram and come over to the antique arms show if you get the chance. You'll be tired of looking at black guns and want to see some honest to goodness walnut and blued steel.😉
Hi Mark, I once owned a nice Colt Lightning in 22 RF. Nice gun.. I owned a 59 Mercury Montclair 2dr HT. Yep mine had the plastic on the seats also. Hot in the summer & cold in the winter - lol. Loaned it to my brother one too many times and he got T boned by a 2 ton truck. My girl friend and future wife really loved that big Merc..
Good eye! I already have a early, Civil War era Pratt and Whitney rifling machine. A deal came up on this one that I couldn't pass up. Doesn't everybody need two rifling machines?😂😂😂
That's a one-owner '57 Turnpike Cruiser. It was parked in the shop in the '60's and hasn't been started since. Still has the plastic on the seats. I wish I had time to get the old girl running, but I stay buried in gun work and likely won't get to it.
@@thecinnabar8442 It looks to be in great shape, but it will need some time and effort (and money) if it has been sitting that long for sure. I have three project cars waiting in the wings and it is an open question on whether I'll live long enough to complete them.😀
It was great meeting you at the las vegas Antique firearms show. I can't wait to see the video of that very special pistol you showed me. I am so jealous. I love strange finds like that. Be safe getting back home
If I don't make Cody in July I'm def hitting LV next year. Have fun. Is that Henry for sale? How do you pack those guns for travel...pelican style cases?
Make sure to stop by our table if you make either of those shows. The Henry is on consignment for sale. If it doesn't sell at Las Vegas or Colorado in May, it will likely be at Cody. We pack them very carefully. We have several methods of packing depending upon the value of the gun.
How in gods name did you get ahold of a Henry. Those are easily at 50 K

Beautiful rifles. Thank you Mark. By the way, you will have to talk about that car someday🙂! If only to avoid being nagged about it …

Model 66 long ranger is my personal favorite.
I just never see one in show's.
I have an original and a Centenial.
Thank you Mark definetly a show to pass by for all firearm enthusiasts
Man that saddle ring carbine 86 in 40-82 is neat!
Great looking group of early old west rifles!
I sure wish I could get over to the show.
Do that many guns fit in the back of that car mark? Thanks for the recommendation. I like a good show
I’ll see you there.
Wow, look at that old what looks like a Fairlane; my mom had a 1960 Thunderbird and it was white. Now on to the rifles; they are especially nice.
Close. It's a '57 Mercury
Ya shoot straight with the pool cues too ??
Unfortunately, I had to take out the pool table to make room for the rifling machine. My pool shooting's getting a little rusty these days.😒
Maybe blue it ??@@thecinnabar8442
Great set of rifles, have a good show!
What is your price range for the different guns?
Wish I would have known about this sooner. I’m in Vegas now for the shot show that starts Tuesday and I’m flying out Friday am early.
That's a shame. If you come out to the SHOT Show next year, plan to stay an extra day and come see us.
Let’s see that car!
Mark, I would be very interested to see how you transport all of these rifles without damaging any of them. Do you have racks built into a small trailer?
No, but we do have a special soft carrier for the back seat of our pickup for the more valuable guns.
I will be in las vegas that weekend for the Mechum motorcycle aution i will stop by saturday see ya
Looking forward to it!
What caliber is the Colt large frame Burgess?
The large frame Colt is a 40-60-260. It's the same cartridge used for the 40-60 Marlin and 40-65 Winchester.
Nice Turnpike Cruiser. Wonderfully riding cars. Luxury with style.
Beautiful Guns'' Another Great Video Mark 💯 Thank you 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
I’m headed to Vegas now, but it’s for the World of Concrete. I’ll fly out on Friday morning returning home. I’ll have to put it on my list for next year though.
We'll be looking for you next year, Benji.
@@thecinnabar8442 I’d stay over this trip, but I have to be in Ft Lauderdale first of next week. Have a great show. 👍

@@thecinnabar8442thanks about the 22 and have never seen many mercury's in ozzi , my cousin had a 58 fairlane ,, similar look ,, cheers
Boy, you weren't kidding about being heavy on the '73's. What a wonderful collection. I hope to make it out there some year.
Great looking table of History!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
Hello Mark are going to be to SHOT show next week. I am going to be there If possible I would like to shake you hand. You have an awesome channel

@@thecinnabar8442 ok sounds good. What are the hours of the gun show. I am thinking I will have some extra time on Friday evening
@@chrisevansgunshorsesranchi699 It's open 9-5 on Friday and Saturday. Hope to see you there.
@@thecinnabar8442 I will do my best to look your up
Some very nice rifles, really like those 73, and 86’s,
Those are some nice rifles on that table! I'm sure a lot of folks will enjoy the chance of getting any of them! 😮❤
Nice rifles and the old Mercury is too.
No 76's??
Plumb out of 76's. Hard to keep them in inventory.
You should invite the fellow from Leverguns50 to your ranch. That would be an interesting video...
We've talked about it and he has a standing invite out to the ranch.

Oh, what a shame!
Some beautiful firearms there Mark. Thank you very much for sharing. Good luck at the show. Will definitely add it to the bucket list.
We'll look forward to meeting you there sometime.
Thanks Mark, sounds like a good winter vacation. I'll need to attend next year.
Be sure to look us up if you make it next year.
Wow, is that a sine bar rifling machine in the background? You are right, greatest gun show ever.
Good eye! I already have a early, Civil War era Pratt and Whitney rifling machine. A deal came up on this one that I couldn't pass up. Doesn't everybody need two rifling machines?😂😂😂
I'll put it in my calendar for next year. Looks like a show to go to. Thanks Mark
Sounds good, Clay!
Really Cool Thanks For Showing 😇😇😇
My pleasure!!
What's your car looks like a Ford nice video
Very close. It's a '57 Mercury.
Have a fun time....that show is on my list list.
It's a great show. I hope you can make it sometime.
I'd like to see more of that nice Merc.

Our family has a Turnpike Cruiser also. Cool car, lets see more of it.
Very cool cars. My wife's father bought this one brand new as a teenager. He's 86 now.
@@thecinnabar8442is it right hand drive?
No, left hand
Thanks for the reply, my dad bought ours off of the Pine Ridge Indian Res. It's pretty rough, but still cool. Love your vids.@@thecinnabar8442

If I don't make Cody in July I'm def hitting LV next year. Have fun.
