This is the Keith McFadgen collection. One carbine, some mags, mag pouches, and a post war bayonet Lots of other very nice stuff including a good selection of Winchesters.

Is there a website for the auctioneer or a catalogue for mail bidding or whatever?

Cheers

It is the New Zealand Antique and Historical Arms Association, the premier gun collectoing organisation in NZ. There will be a branch somewhere near you. Give us your area and I will give you some contact details. All collectors should belong as it provides many benefits and contacts.

Rotorua
I don't have a C endorsement but I do collect.

Central Branch would be your closest branch. The secretary is Brian Farrell and his email is farrell@wave.co.nz He could advise you on meetings and put you in touch with Rotorua members. I would say that at least half of the members do not have C endorsements as their collecting interests do not require it (e.g. rifles & shotguns, antique firearms, swords, etc). Happy collecting!
