As usual, I have a recap today of the final prices of the guns I filmed from the most recent Julia auction (spring of 2018). Once again, I focussed on machine guns, as well as high end sporting arms and Civil War rifles.
This was the last auction being held in Maine by James Julia, as the company has been merged with the Morphy auction company. I will be continuing my working relationship with Morphy, so you will see me filming firearms there in a few months. My thanks to everyone at Julia for so many wonderful years!
