Everyone has to start somewhere. What I like about Legacy Collectibles is you have something for everyone.
Every one of those guns would be welcome in my collection. That Colt 1911 though…..heart beating… need to lay down and take a nap.
The M1 carbine is exceptional. I have a 1953 Korean War era H&R M1 Garand. It obviously didn’t see combat,it’s to pretty.
well done tom
Hey Tom don't worry about big words, we enjoy your bloviating, about these beautiful guns.
After seeing that one refinished gun that looked factory i cant believe anything is org anymore lol. The grips on the bolo for look replaced. For me i like guns that have been used takes out the has it been refinished question and i can shoot it w.o worrying about value
I will never buy a pistol but I really like this channel and the nice host and his little storys.
Im eclectic
On Carbine: B is for the Receiver not the barrel, U on magazine is for Union Hardware not Underwood.
Years ago...childhood...dad's friend let me shoot his S&W Model 39. I grew up and saved my money...and one day realized I could own a S&W 39. And that's when it started... And then it was the 59's.... Seperate safes for the S&W' 9's s and 1911 45's so its still OK.... OMG the S&W 39 is perfect!
My childhood bestfriend's father owned a nickel 39-2 aswell as an nickel 66-2 that we were allowed to borrow an take out with us to the woods or wherever we felt comfortable shooting. Both of those 2 S&W's with the old rosewood & medallion grips started my obsession with vintage handguns. Still my favorite hammer fired semi is that old 9mm and that .357 mag filled the spot for fav. Wheelgun.
S&W 39 is a beautiful. Gun. Love mine. 1911's are not ugly either. Take care.
Decades ago during the Golden Age of Surplus, purchasing most of these WW2 era small arms in very good or better condition was in the affordability of the common workaday man, I no longer think that is the situation, what I see now is you can purchase something that looks like it came out of Tutankhamun`s tomb for 3 times the price.
it’s a shame and i totally agree. collectors have set these ridiculous prices and every little tweak to a gun year makes them “rare” and unobtainable to most of us. on top of spending that much, you sure as hell will never want to shoot it, and isn’t that what we are suppose to do with then😂😊
So, are the increasing prices due to inflation or limited availability? I would guess what was available in the 1960s and 70s still exists. Are people holding on to these items and not selling them, or were items destroyed creating demand.
It amazing. Some one would. Put that much money In a gun Every time one of Thea’s guns change hands. The mark up gets bigger and biger Just amazing
Welcome to the world of desirable, finite assets. Just like real estate and gold, the supply of these things is fixed. No one will ever make more of them.
Love the ball end mill cuts on the 1911, so much nicer then the modern slide cuts.
I specialize in buying 90%+ arms and using them. Not excessively. A magazine or so a year at the absolute most.
The B code on the Underwood M1 Carbine indicates the receiver was made by Singer, not the barrel.
Thank you Tom and Randy.
Some lovely items, Tom. The m1 carbine is fantastic, and would be my choice from those shown. But alas i live in a cUK country. Thanks for sharing
Also, the small U on the magazine indicates it is a war time replacement mag made by Union Hardware. Original Underwood carbine magazines have a two letter code, like UU or UI for example. Otherwise that Underwood is a beautiful example of an as manufactured gun. 👍
This guy beat me to it. Good catch.
LOVE that Femaru
I like diversity (in gun collecting) but I prefer them to be slightly beat up or well used because I like to shoot them. To have a mint gun makes me nervous.
Gun collecting is like coin collecting, the slightest ding or scratch can reduce prices considerably. Don't dismay, you can pick up some excellent items if you're not in to the serious minutae that causes prices to skyrocket.
you always pay a premium for mint guns but as the years pass it is usually worth it. Thank for giving us hints what to look for weather a gun has been refinished or not.
At the time of my fathers death ( July 1990 ) he still owned his Navy issued a 1941 model 14 S&W .38 , all the marking and notations were perfect, proof marks and numbers matched, the only thing wrong with it was the lanure ring was removed with a hacksaw by my father because it got in the way while he carried as his police carry weapon - also he had a 1946 model 15 S&W .357 that was another police issue weapon
I find it most interesting firearms with history. Who carried it and stories behind them.
Wow, bety nice looking collection
A friend of mine had a Colt Ace here in The UK back when we were trusted to own such things, it must have been about 1984. It was a lovely gun to shoot, in fact one of my favorites.
1911’s mainspring housing is either flat, or arched. Guys were shooting low when not aiming, so later models were arched, and a relief was cut into the frame behind the trigger.
Great video. Awesome variety. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! I've seen some really nice collectibles and these ones really go there on top. I'm a Walther collector myself and would certainly cherish a model 4 like that - very, very hard to find in such a great condition. All the guns are pretty amazing, and loved watching that M1 carbine with the flip sight. Cheers from Malta.
Absolutely beautiful collection and cool for David to allow others to enjoy these rare pieces.
I've started a PP collection and now have a 22lr, .380 and a 32 acp. Beautifully made pistols and although mine are commercial post war, their value has increased quite a bit since acquiring them about 10 years ago.
All you need now is a pp or ppk in 25acp to compliment your collection.
I've wanted the James Bond gun for probably 30 or more years. I finally got one on a local auction, a dandy too. They advertised it as a 380 PPK, when I saw it for the first time, I realized it was manufactured in 1939 and a 380 from then would be very expensive. Well, It was not a 380, but rather a 32 and I got it for about $1500. It's 95% or better and I love it.
I learn something new with every video. Thank you!
Beautiful collection, as usual. Please let collector David know that if he is interested in adopting a 62 year old, I will “reluctantly”😜 apply for the position! Thanks for sharing these wonderful guns with us. I might not be able to afford them, but I do appreciate being able to just admire them through Legacy.
Great information on some classic firearms. I have a 42 Underwood M-1 and it is missing some of the stock stamps that yours has, so I suspect the stock was refinished. It does have the correct stamp inside the stock though I am at least know its and Underwood. You said your M-1 was 1943 manufactured and I was told by a so called M-1 carbine expert that from 1943 on the Underwood's had the bayonet lug. Mine carbine does not have a bayonet lug. I think the WW2 firearms all have such a unique history to them just from the manufacturing aspects of them. I mean and IBM pistol? or a carbine made by a typewriter company. The history they all had on the battlefields speaks for itself. Thank you for sharing history with us !!
Beautiful collection
Thank you for the video. Always learn from the best examples. It's a joy to watch these guns.
Man i love that guns
In some collecting circles they call it fly specking !
i saw the M1 Carbine peeking out at the side of the desk, but didnt expect to see it in the video! How delightful!
the barrel is ribbed for her pleasure, he called it something else
This M1 Carbine, WHAT a beauty!!
It is while watching Legacy videos through the last few years that I realized that the pre-1945 American weapons are the most beautiful craftsmanship in the world (I say that even if I am NOT American by any means)…
Great video. I’d love to get an ice wartime 1911 one day. Something not perfect … but nice. The weapons of heros.
CMP 3rd round 1911 purchasing is still open. I ended up with a nice service grade 1945 Remington Rand. Both frame and slide RR.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these old guns
I always watch your channel with a dictionary close by! Ha! Ha!
Awesome
I'm glad that I found your videos. I'm learning a lot. Thank you for sharing.
Wow Tommy
Always a great video and presentation.
I love my meager collection of battle weapons. The mismatched parts, the small crack in in the upper handguard of my garand cause the barrell was overheated at one time. When I buy something, the first question is, "have you been there"?
🇺🇸
Awesome video ,,, thanks for sharing your knowledge
Those are some really nice guns. I qualified in Navy basic training in 1988 with one of those 22cal 1911 45s.
So did I in 1985 at Great Lakes, the one I used was a conversion and it shot like crap, probably because it was all shot out.
@@josephbrands6303 yup very old and shot out by many recruits ! We are of the dying breed that actually had to carry old M14s on the Grinders and wore bell bottoms
@@wildmanjeff42 Company 0149 10th Division! Don't forget the spats, white canvas spats that had to be washed & bleached white. All the old barracks are gone now. My son went to Great Mistakes in 2018 and I didn't recognize the place when I went for his graduation. All new air conditioned buildings. We were lucky to have a good breeze coming in thru the windows, I went to boot from May to July 85. I never imagined it could be so hot & humid in Illinois that time of year, being so close to Lake Michigan. I found out how cold it was too, when I went back in Feb 91 for Master Diesel Mechanic School.
I went to great lakes boot camp in May of 1999 and around September whenever I took the metra to Chicago I could see them demolishing the ships/barracks.
Great video.
Where were you living in Florida when you’d go out to the Everglades?
Amazing
Eclectic isn't too exotic a word ,"i say old boy that's a very stentorian gun and don't be too mendacious in arguing about it!"
Great video
…most interesting and educational to follow your work and listen to - complimént, respect and sincere appreciation (ex Cape of Good Hope!) 👊🔥
A treasure!!!!!
so.. M1 carbine price.. 35.. hundred or thousand?
So far it should be 3,500. A light perusal of the 'Net shows prices around $2,000 for the average M1 Carbine.
$3,500
Still way to high even in it's condition.
Thanks from all of us around the world in countries where we cant buy a firearm.
I've never heard any comments about the change to the 'lightening' cut area of the front of the M1911 slide just ahead of the frame, the early (1913) M1911 shows a rather acute radius curve whereas later models feature a much gentler radius. Was this a "Colt" thing early on? The arched mainspring housing was an attempt to 'raise' the natural point of aim of the M1911 for the average shooter as part of the improvement program which resulted in the A1 model.
I got turned onto you’re channel by Mr. 1:40 Wittmen pardon the spelling ❤

I need some info. I saw an Interarms PPK/s in a gun store recently. Its blued in mint condition with no signs of wear. It has the original box with 2 mags, the manual and the warrenty. It has black Walther grips and a spare set of wood checked grips withot markings. No test target. The serial number is 0101xx. No suffix. Since the serial number deems low I think its an early Interarms piece. Its marked Made in USA. No proof marks that I noticed. I would like to know the year of manufacture and a fair retail price. Thank you.
I have a 1916 DWM P08 Luger. It has unit markings on the front strap and all the number match except for the magazines. The 1916 is not remarked for later issue. I am wondering if I should leave it as is or have it professionally refurbished, as the finish is thin and not much straw is visible. Is there an email that I could send pictures to you for an opinion?
leave it as it is. Well done polishing and rebluing will cost a lot, and it will always show. Sell it as it is and buy a better one if you want a better one.
I was considering a restoration by LugerMan.
my dad has a ruger pistol he got from my grandfather whom was a medic in europe WW2
...знайшлася б якась добра душа і подарувала б мені що-небудь просто так...
I'd love to have some mint collectors guns like these, but I can't have a gun that I can't shoot, and shooting these beautiful specimens would be criminal. Maybe if I hit the lottery and can afford to buy a shooter grade model alongside the mint condition... Do you offer payment plans?
Ouaih , trop beau pour être d’origine
Sucks being broke
Window shopping is free. And you're more likely to get something worth the price when you _do_ get some money. 👍
👍❤🎉😊
To quote Blazing Saddles, " Mr Lamar, you use your tongue better than a 2 dollar wh&$%re".
Shame that the first
Too bad we can’t take them with us, eh?
Do you realise that you're making the world experts on gun collecting?

Tell me the name of the fingerprint gun safe you like again?
a person that uses long words is sesquipedalian
Lugubrious? Are you suffering from melancholia?
Yeah, we can't afford any of them because you price gouge the hell out of everything.
I have a hard time understanding why you would buy a 20.000 dollar gun to never shoot . Yes it’s mint and is the best but now it’s just a paperweight .
He said at the end of the video you buy what you can afford. You need passion for it and get joy from collecting. Plus these guns will always just go up in value.
Its 7.62 not 3
I'd say your vocab was pedantic, verbose or salubrious, but never lugubrious... JMHO
lugubrious means sounding or looking sad. I don't think that word applies to your content at all.
...my own one (1944)is in real: N.O.S./conditions, but the quality of parkerization/stamped/accessories: is realy poor. Nothing even to compare with Germans, and (yes!) the Italian Beretta/mod 34: side-guns, of the same period (even being/daily:"carpet-bombed"😊
I have an DWM Luger P08 Artillerie from 1915 SN. 7171 with the Stock, cleaning rod and disassembly tool. I can’t find any information about it. Can you or someone here tell me something about it or where I can find anything :) thank you guys!
Gun belonged to my great grandfather…
Um...simpson ltd does luger appraisals.
stuff like this is actually worth less money in my opinion, something that was never used or issued shouldn't cost any more than it did to produce it.
The market doesn't work like that. Mint guns will fly out the door. Beaters will be sold for pennies.
Yeah, they're pricing out in the stupidest manner. Half they guns are not worth what they sell more of them for.
