I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon!

I see George even won a blue ribbon for his display. No wonder, it appears he was the only one there!

I wish I had been there in person to see his display. Those are some tough items to find!

George has been collecting Japanese Militaria since the early 50's, found his first rifle in the trash, while delivering newspapers, went and knocked on the door to see if he could have it, and the rest is history.

George's blue ribbon is for being a past AGCA president. He finished in the top 10 with a cash award. I finished 5th with my 44 Carbine display. I'll post the pictures when I get a chance. Trey
