You Want Gun Pr0n?.

Via Cowboy Blob, you’ve GOT to check out this estate auction. Six hundred and seventy-two (so far) pieces ranging from the merely rare to the exotic to almost literally unobtanium. Everything from Perazzi shotguns to a Ma Deuce. A 20-round box magazine fed scoped 1903 Springfield (yes, you read that right) to a Boyes .55 caliber anti-tank rifle. Check this out: there’s both a Lahti AND a Solothurn. And don’t get me started on the pistols!

The original owner must have been collecting for decades. UPDATE: He was. He was Bruce Stern, attorney (of course) and NRA director who died last July. It must’ve taken this long just to catalog everything. Dave Hardy said about him last July:

I have been honored to have Bruce Stern as a personal friend for the last 40 years. We met on our first day of active duty in the Army at Ft Lee Va, and served together at Long Binh in Vietnam. I accompanied him several times on “shopping” trips for weapons both in the States and in VN. He was truly passionate about firearms collecting, and I sorely miss him. Rest in peace my friend

Oh how I wish I could win the lottery!

(Tam will be disappointed – he apparently didn’t collect Smiths.)
