Knob Creek

Post by MP44 »

Anyone find anything interesting at the Creek?
I found a nice 1945 dated MG34 gunners kit, complete with a stamped steel AA sight.
Also bought a MG34 ruptured case tool, some MP44 parts and accessories, and a couple MG34 bolts & barrels for a friend.

Good finds! Which day were you there? I was surpised by the light turn out on Saturday.

I was there Thursday and Friday and turn out was light. Several dealers said the same thing about Knob Creek this time.
Sounds like you made some good finds.

I was there Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, turnout was maybe a litle lighter but not much. There were times when you could barely walk through the pole barn. Good MG34/42, MP44 items are getting harder and harder to find.
Overall it was a good show, we came home with a lot of cool stuff.

I found a gunners wallet for my Solothurn. It even had the spare firing pin, a spanner and a couple punches in it. I had a few of the missing tools at home. Other than that I didn't find anything I couldn't live without. I didn't get a lot of time to wander though....had to work.

My best deal was a like new Leupold 4.5-14x 50mm LR/T M1 mil dot scope for $750 with heavy rings and a 2" sun shade.

Now to sight-in the .50 rifle. :wnana:
