with the current gun buying frenzy this mint K38 Masterpiece came looking for Elroy.

Included the original box ,tools and sales receipt and Elroy didn't have to stand in line either

Note the delivery address

it's extra clean. the grips are mint

The paper work and all the accessories simply adds to the package

Thank you kindly. While the 1953 vintage K38 is indeed nice, it pales in comparison to Elroy's 1928 vintage model 1905

You know what they say about real-estate ......................it's all about location, location, location

When it comes to firearms....................it's all about condition, condition, condition

Junk firearms are for chumps. Have no doubt, Elroy has a few chump pieces as well.

Elroy also needs to post a public apology. This summer has flown by at light speed with Pops in the nursing home and number two son moving to NM, Elroy simply has been a busy boy. Time has simply been at a premium with work and this dam Covid BS, posting time has been at a premium.

Elroy was just pleased as pink when that K38 landed in his lap.

Hope to visit more often and contribute more. There's a bunch of good people here !
