        A very handsome bunch, Gordon. Congrats. I don't think I can remember ever seeing three Singers in one pic before!

        Regards,
        Charlie

                      Hey Scott who owns the four Singers in the photos and are any of them for sale?

                      Always interested in finding treasure.

                        Not in the photos I posted... But they are within a few hundred of each other!

                          I don't ask or answer questions like that. So please don't be offended that I won't discuss what I own, what I paid, what's for sale, etc. here. It's hardly proper forum etiquette...unless, of course, this were a forum for blowhards and braggarts. I like to think it's a place to learn about the guns, not personal details. Thanks.

                            As Rob Greer subtly pointed out with his posting of a photo of five Singer pistols quickly trumping a previous post of a photo of four Singers...... anybody can find photos.......The difficult part is finding AND acquiring AND owning multiple authentic Singer 1911s. From my limited experience, I don't know anyone else that does. If they are out there , I sure would enjoy hearing from them. Dealers buy and sell every day but many collectors just keep their treasures to enjoy. On another note, I believe etiquette lectures should be saved for people who have ethics themselves to make that sermon.

                              Oh, is that what you think Rob was pointing out? If so, that is indeed subtle.


                              But I have known and dealt with Rob long enough to believe he didn't have an agenda with his post. Like me, I believe he was simply adding 5 more Singers to the thread in reply to Johnny's question "Where's the other 27 ?".

                              You're pissing in the wind. Don't try try to make something out of nothing.

                              I'm reminded of The Amazing Kreskin... "Even now I know what you are thinking! http://www.amazingkreskin.com/

                              The AMAZING Gordo!

                              I could almost take you serious as a 1911 collector...if you could simply demonstrate you knew something besides how much money you have.
