Josey Wales Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) "Euro Imports", seller on GB, real name Daniel Haslam. His main supplier is a guy in Hamburg name of Ted Augustine, whom I used to but no longer do business with because among other things, he stole Euro 10K of VAT tax that was supposed to come to me, as well as never supplying some parts he was paid for. He also kept a P9S belonging to me and transferred it to Haslam, necessitating contact with ATF and a police report to the Hamburg Kriminal Polizei to prompt it's return. Here is a Walther P5, sold at auction by Hermann Historica in Munich. Serial #013662 https://www.hermann-historica.de/165890 Here is the same gun sold on GB by Daniel Haslam/Euro Imports. "Gun is in great condition with a perfect bore and action". Nothing about being refinished. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/785891119 With those clear plastic grips, (these are commonly seen on "schnittmodel" or factory cutaway guns in Europe) the person buying it is going to be a collector. And we all know how collectors feel about refinished guns.... Augustine (an American who has lived over there for years) uses Haslam as a way to sell guns into the USA without subjecting himself to ATF oversight. Haslam obtained his Type 08 FFL at Augustine's suggestion. Augustine may have bought this gun at auction and had it refinished prior to export, but if you were the Walther collector who bought this gun, I think it wouldn't matter to you who did the deed. "Birds of a feather", etc.. Edited October 17, 2018 by Josey Wales fix Hermann Historica link 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGT Posted November 2, 2018 Report Share Posted November 2, 2018 Wow....I was watching that one. I didn't care about the gun itself but was after the grips. Good to know more details about the source...he's put up some hard to get Vektors and others recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josey Wales Posted November 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) Well, he hasn't sold any more Vektors than I have..... they're all gone for the moment but I have more coming. I'm "bobofthedesert" on GB. His primary supplier, Augustine Waffenteile, appears to be out of business. http://www.augustine-waffenteile.de/shop/HK-P7M13/Original-H-K-Spare-Parts:::182_183.html?language=en Edited November 3, 2018 by Josey Wales correct link 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 Oh, cool! I emailed you about the one with the spare long barrel upper. Did you already sell that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josey Wales Posted November 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 Yes, already gone, sorry. Didn't get the email...... Here's a link to one of my auctions. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/789337947 From there you can look at "seller's other listings". If you save me as a seller you will then be notified of all my listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
