    Anyone Remember or do Business with this parts guy

    Helped me put together my first gun, a derelict Gew 98 while still a college student in the 1990's.
    He had everything Mauser.

    Wanted to reach to see if he had any G33/40 parts but his pn doesn't work.
    Don't know if he's still around.

    Thanks.

    Doing a bit of Googling I find references to him as doing business back in 1970. I'm guessing that since it's 50 years later he may no longer be among us.

    FWIW

    Seems like he may be of the Dearly Departed.

    Now I lay me down to sleep
    A gun beside me is what I keep
    If I awake, and you're inside
    The coroner's van is your next ride

    Ours is a moving pastime. As one source is lost, we must look for others. There are a couple of parts dealers in the NJ/NY/PA area but I've never heard of that one. I met a guy at the last Lynchburg gun show who came down from that area (I'll look for his card) and of course Poppert's is another good source there. What specific G33/40 part(s) are you looking for?
