Patience and Jarod have a very impressive collection of "only" 47 pre-64 Model 70s.  The display they put on at the WACA in 2023 was spectacular and I expect next year's will be better.  Certainly "worth the price of admission"...

I know where I'll be hanging out...

P.S.  True... The reporter didn't know the difference between 9x57 Mauser and 9MM Parabellum or "Martial" and "Marshall", but I like the distinction drawn between "collecting" and "gathering"...

Good Luck. . .  in finding a Model 70 chambered in “9mm Parabellum”!!

I've enjoyed our conversations... very nice guy.  I enjoyed seeing his display a few years back, will be fun to see "what's new". 🙂

I recently found and acquired this early 1960's vintage General Electric Sportmate AM portable. One of my late Uncles had one of these when I was young and I always found it interesting and quite unique. What I didn't pay attention to back then was the silhouette on the grille badge.

Not directly related to collecting Winchesters, but interesting nonetheless.

Sorry for the rotated photo........

I am renewing the original post as I am seriously in need of teh Dealers or Retail Catalogs, - not the standard Firearms.

"I need to get the missing Dealers and Retail Price List catalogs and Price Sheets to complete the book (I am writing) and as I have a lot of spare Winchester Firearms Catalogs which I am prepared to post (or email if I do not have a spare) to anyone who can assist me by supplying a good electronic copy of the missing Dealers and Retail Price List catalogs or Price Sheets

The years I am missing are:  1985, 1986, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005.  I would like better copies of 1982 and 1983, but can manage.

Sincerely

Keith
