Militaria

[WWGunslinger]

Anyone know of any places in PA that often have militaria for sale (and hopefully low prices?)

Sarco in Easton has all sorts of goodies.

Helmets, knives, bayonets etc...

you won't be getting anything inexpensive there though?

A good site is www.atthefront.com

Looks like most of that is reproduction. I'm generally looking for original stuff too.

It might be worthwhile going to the next Eagle Arms show that is in the Harrisburg area.

Sorry, I never really checked the prices.

i guess what i'm looking for is like flea markets, antique shops, pawn shops, etc. because I don't think specialty shops like Sarco are going to have low prices, although they may have better items.

Online I would try "Cheeper Than Dirt" and "The Sporting Guide".

By "militaria" are you referring to antiques, re-enacting pieces, or military surplus? Do you want something that's gonna sit on a shelf, in other words can it be delicate? Or on a desk just as a curio? If it doesn't have to be in pristine shape then I'd do like mpan72 said and check those sites. But if you're looking for collectibles then I'd check antique shows, militaria has it's own niche in any show of decent size and you may find the prices to be be surprisingly reasonable.
