Jack Stark, 81, is a Fort Wayne native and firearms enthusiast. His entire life he has had a great interest in guns, however, it was not until 2007 when he began his immense collection. Starting out, Stark held a keen interest in seeking out European military rifles from the late 19th to mid-20th century. He says that his inspiration for this came primarily from the Mauser line of rifles, due to its wide array of models & designs.

Over the past decade, Stark says his collection began to transform as his focus shifted to categories such as guns of World War 1, United States military guns, and then to .22 Slide-Action rifles. Furthermore, Stark says he then began to collect Lugers, American Eagles, and other handguns of the 1900’s. To Stark, both design and era are two leading factors he considers when seeking out a new addition to his collection. He has no interest in plastics, as only the original steel and wood-work that made these guns so famous are what draws him in.

Stark’s main interest in collecting firearms stems from his interest in the intricate mechanisms within the guns casing. Stark is a Mechanical Engineer by trade, attributing much of his enjoyment when dissembling, cleaning, and restoring guns - to study the guns functionality, as well as to maintain and preserve its original condition.

While many of these guns carry a strong memory of when he acquired it and the care and time put into owning it, Stark says it is time to downsize, as the collection has become too much for him to manage at this point in his life. He states that perhaps the money raised from this auction, will be put to use in funding other collections such as his wrist and pocket watch collection, or his collection of local Fort Wayne artwork. He says it’s even possible that the funds could help begin a new collection.
