I got them all. It took a year but It was fun finding them all three guns from the S&W colt and webley. Take a look

I really really like the way you organized the case. Simple yet very cool.
Tell us some stories about how you got the guns...
Thanks,
Pryo.

The webley was easy and so was the colt. The gun I hade a hard time getting right is the S&W. I found the right grips but had to find the brass logo inlay So I had to find set #2. the gun had to have the front sight redone to match the movie. then reblued when the gunsmith was rebluing it he took the front sight back off and then made a half moon sight (the right sight for the gun ) so when I got it back I looked at it and :evil: ####. I had to send it back and have the ramp sight put back on again. what a pain. But I am happy with how it looks now after a year of headache.

Impressive to say the least. 3 down and 1 to go. The Browning.
Would you be willing to say how much you spent on each of the guns?
I was gunna post this on your other thread, but I think you really need a larger cabinet to house your already large and impressive collection. I'd be willing to bet that even though you seem to have everything covered from all the films, there's still alot left that could be and most likely will be done over time. Need... more... room.

My dear lord I am envious of your wonderful prop collection. One of these days when I get the funds, the extra funds left over from my Indy Gear/whatever other hobby I have funds, I will build my prop collection up. For now I shall keep dreaming and hoping for that glorious day.

My goodness, what a collection! Just..wow! What I'd like to know is how did you get the Nurhachi urn and the Zhan Kara Stones? I've seen Staff of Rha headpieces, Golden Fertility Idols and Holy Grails on eBay, but never that urn or the stones. Awesome guns, by the way!
Pyro: Where'd you get that emoticon? That's a hoot!

Wow, what a Fantastic Collection !! ... >>

That is one terrific collection, and the display is simply awesome. Congratulations on the three Pistols
If i may ask, where did you find the Angel (sitting atop your display) from the Ark ? I would have never thought this figure would really be such a great piece w/ out the entire piece - many TIA for any leads.
Happy Holidays and Kind Regards from N.M.

Nice collection! Being more of an antique gun collector than an Indy prop collector, I must say I'm envious of those finds.
Cheers,
