    My gut feeling says they're not genuine helped along by information read on here.

    I took a few samples and thought I'd ask the more knowledgeable

    Various colours don't inspire confidence although each one is numbered differently and i think there are around 30-40

    Still not feeling it though. In fact. I actually think I saw (in another picture) a guy I had seen before having me think it was maybe a reenactment group.

    Any input anyone? Or have I got it wrong?

    Not a paper collector but I think I see some foxing and age on some. If not real, these photos would fool me.

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    Foxing is when the acid in old paper starts to brown , often seen in old books .

    They look good to me. They sure as hell aren't reenactment guys.
    It all depends on the price.

    Thank you gentlemen. We're getting somewhere. I've been reading like hell so even if I don't buy them, I've learned a bit.
