I’m holding out for the Wannenmacher show this fall. I haven’t been to a gun show in years. I’d love to pay too much to get in and not be able to afford anything. I always buy some silly little trinket just to satisfy my urge to spend some money.
That makes sense, a friend saw a picture of the Nazi flag(s) on the table and was all upset over it. Guess they didn't consider it was just part of a WWII collection.
I get it. Nazi memorabilia is NOT my thing. I personally am not interested in collecting or viewing any of it. I simply walk by and move on to things I am interested in.
With regards to Nazi memorabilia, I look it as a continuing opportunity to remember history. The 45th Infantry Museum has quite a bit of Nazi stuff. Apparently the 45th occupied one of Hitler's residences and collected stuff from there.
Same reason that I like seeing the Confederate memorabilia at the museum.

Many collectors of WW2 memorabilia abound. Heroes on all sides, even the old vets that used to be a big percentage of gun show attendance agreed on that.
Funny how the guys that actually faced those enemies in the 1940s weren't "triggered" by images or words.
I think they understood the difference between real and perceived harm.
A lot of folks, of all political leanings, are daily looking for something to rant about. A new national pastime.

Before everything went nuts, I used to buy guns at Old Mary's flea market. You had to watch what you were buying, but you could get some good deals.
Last time I attended the Wannamacher I didn't buy anything, not even a coke.
$12.00 coke why not?
Yup was just thinking about this as I was reading! Hitler's mirror gives me the willies every stinking time.
