.....a Barkley Pattern loader for paper 12 gauge shells.

Very nice - I like the old tools as much as the guns they were made for. Paul

I have been acquiring tools by Union Hardware (U.H. Co. Torrington) and Bridgeport Gun Implement (B.G.I. Co.), including accessories like cleaning rods, etc. I will post photos as I clean them up. Cheers!

I also love this old reloading stuff. I'll post pictures as time permits..

Mark, If I may borrow your thread here are a few of my vintage reloading items. These are fun to collect and rather inexpensive. If I may...

Neat stuff! Finding these tools in original cartons is rare, I bet. I have a nice deluxe BGI bench closer with the hardened steel head. It has reversible pins for square and round crimps. It is built very well. I just received a BGI 12 gauge capper and a real nice 10 gauge Berdan capping tool. My Union Hardware tools are very well built, also. I happened upon a well used and repaired, no-name, 10 gauge roll crimper that will be put into service when I get my 10 gauge Lifter back together. Cheers!
