My Dad used to stop at the factory outlet store whenever he was in Utica to buy factory seconds. We found a bunch of these knives while clearing his house after he passed away. My steak knives are Utica.

Franklin Mint went out of business years ago.

My first shotgun is a Mossberg New Haven 600AT bought at a NY Jamesway store. It came with the select-a-choke barrel. My only problem with this shotgun was with the plastic safety button which I replaced with a metal one. Got a slug barrel and took two deer with it.

Thanks for the translation. This card may be from an uncle of my dad's who traveled between continents between the world wars.

Here is the back of the post card. It is written in pencil.

I found this post card which shows what I think are a Hotchkiss and Schwarzlose machine guns.

I was baptized and had my first communion in my Dads American Carpathian Russian church in Binghamton NY. I was just inquisitive about the caption on the old post card.

PeteC, thanks for the answer. My grands parents emigrated from the Carpathian mountain region. I have later photos from the 60s but have no clue who the people are. The answers died with my dad and his siblings.

I inherited an army postcard showing the interwar Czech army with heavy maxim machine guns. I would like to the description translated to English.

It's just a plain Fulton. I like the case hardened receiver.

I inherited a Fulton 20 ga double and would like to know what the barrel chokes should be.

The revolver was surrendered to the state police for destruction. The several number was removed from the rear of the cylinder.

I did a quick glance at the cylinder and bottom of grip and didn't notice anything. I did notice a P on the frame between the cylinder and top strap. I'll do a closer inspection when I visit next time.

My elderly neighbor has a WW II era pistol. It's not blued but looks to be parkerized which has worn down to bare metal in spots. I have found 2 different serial numbers. One is on the crane and the other on the pistol underneath crane. Neither have a V. Which is the correct serial number?

Thanks for the info it makes sense.

My neighbor showed me what I think is a model 10. The finish on it was not blued but could have been parkerized. The most interesting feature was the clear lucite grips. The flat inner portion of these grips were painted a bright red. Does anyone have any idea why anyone would make grips like...
