“Flow of WWII weapons after the war”

[BCA]

While the armament dealers like Sam Cummings draw attention it is also interesting to remember that there were many dealers in surplus military vehicle parts who catered to all the countries, small medium and large, that needed vehicle spare parts. Export controls also applied to them but maybe not as intensively as for armament dealers. I think this market was covered by a broader range of dealers than the very few big players in the gun business. One big military vehicle parts supplier was Levy Auto Parts in Toronto. I’d like to hear about the others. A review of their inventory and sale records shows how international their customer base was. Like the business that Cummings ran, Levy’s too hit a wall in by the 1980’s as the market for older parts was fading quickly.
