The Legends of Hammerli, SIG, Walther, Steyr, FWB

Legendary Guns of Hammerli, Walther, SIG, Steyr, Pfuff, Hi Standard, and others:  Banned Assault weapons in Highland Park

A special exhibition, technical discussion, and offer for sale of these classic, unbelievably accurate firearms.  An array of handguns, and a few rifles by Tanner, Gruenig and Elmiger, and others never before in the USA, or rare as hen's teeth at best.

This is the largest, most advanced exhibition and sale of these guns ever held in the USA.  Some of these guns have never been offered in the USA until now.

The contact email probably says all that needs to be said about the exhibit, but if you want more information:

Please see

http://lakeforest.patch.com/groups/buy-sell-trade/p/legendary-icons-banned-in-highland-park--walther....

for more details, including images of about 25% of the guns that will be available.

This is NOT a political discussion.  It is a display, offer of the guns for sale, and an assortment of very congenial, but technically high levelpresentations and discussions about the guns.  Some of the aspects of the firearms may also be specifically relevant to security issues in and around Lemont and Argonne.  These are discussed briefly in the above link, and can be discussed further at the exhibition.

No charge, children welcome with responsible adult.  Any sale MUST proceed through standard FFL route, no private sales at this location.  No discount to law enforcement officers or agencies.

For info on the guns and this event, email Nikita@alum.MIT.edu

The more typical "assault gun" also will be available for retail sale, inthe nearby gun shop, but NOT part of this special exhibition.
