Went to a gun show yesterday, and in a bunch of old junk a guy had was a Meepos single stage reloading press. I had read of them but this if the first one I have seen. It is all there except for the primer stem which screws into the cast iron base. I picked it up for one of you guys that likes old presses. The press is overall rust patina, but doesn't look like any real pitting. Has a shell head holder installed as well as a sizing die which looks like a pistol caliber, may be something close to 45 colt. I thought I might clean it up with navel jelly, but then someone might like it the way it is. The fellow said it had been in his garage for at least 30 years! If any one is intrested in it send me a PM, and we will come to some agreement. Really don't have any idea what it might be worth, and any one know how old this press is? I would guess 20's to 40,s, but really don't have any clue. Best regards, John the toolman.
