TOPIC: Several cool antigues & items at one inspection

Inspection in Oak Forest today had some really cool items and antiques.

M93 rifle with bayonet - WWI or WWII - not sure yet. Date on rifle is 1886

Chambers stove and oven- working perfectly. Did some research and some of these have been sold to collectors for as much as $17,000. That comes in handy for repairing the defects found.

A Servel gas operated refrigerator. First time I have seen that. There is a recall on these www.cpsc.gov/en/recalls/1998/cpsc-warns-...n-use-can-be-deadly/

Wow, was the gun left in the house?

I used to have that stove.. wish I still did..

The gun was there, but the owner passed away. His family has not retrieved all of his belongings as of yet. The gun is a French Lebel and was used in many wars. But you know what they say about French guns; fired once, dropped twice.
