Full description and what we offer
Jeremiah Johnson Trading is a family-owned business run by Greg Schimetschek and his son Dean from their shop in Haddam, Connecticut. They focus exclusively on pre-1899 antique firearms, edged weapons, and militaria—pieces with real history rather than production-line modern guns.
Their inventory includes rare examples like:
"Engraved Spencer shotguns are an extreme rarity in any form yet finding an early First Model which conforms exactly to Grade A specifications is virtually impossible."
They list items weekly on GunBroker with no-reserve penny auctions—bids literally start at $0.01. This is their primary sales channel and items change constantly. You can also contact them directly to inquire about specific pieces.
