    1911 for around $800, thinking about Taurus

    Springfield or Para. Even a Colt (not that 1991 junk), but a nice Series 70 or 80 can be had for $800.

    Makarovs Anyone?

    I just picked up an East German Makarov with German authentication paperwork with factory signatures & matching serial #'s yesterday. It looks nice next to my Bulagarian Arsenal Makarov, which sits next to its CZ-82 cousin. Looking to snag a nice Russian Makarov next. Replicating like friggen...

    Bad day with my new Sig P239

    Well, since somebody said it, somebody might as well say "tupperware belongs in the kitchen".:D

    Makarovs Anyone?

    Forgot to post pics of my CZ-82 & Bulgarian Arsenal Mak:

    Makarovs Anyone?

    I own both a CZ-82 (Mak clone in 9x18) as well as a Bulgarian "Arsenal" Markarov in 9x18. I looked at the Hungarian FEG PA-63, but the DA trigger pull is sooooooo long. The SA wasn't as bad, but nowhere near my Bulgarian Mak, nor my CZ. Personally, while the FEG PA-63 & its cousin the Polish P64...

    Putting to rest a "Dirty Harry" myth.

    He never used a Wildey, that was Charles Bronson in the 3rd Death Wish movie. Clint used the TDE .44 Auto Mag. I have a 1974 High Standard .44 Auto Mag

    Is .44Mag a practical self defence caliber?

    I have the S&W model 29-8. Not that it couldn't be concealed, but I sure as hell wouldn't have it in cocked in the holster :-) All guns are accurate when fired properly. At 10 yards, I was planting about 1 1/2" patterns. Problem was, I could only fire about 20 rounds due to the friggen twist...

    Did you start with a .22LR?

    Yup, my dad's winchester Model 62A, which I now have....

    Good Gun safe for around 1K ?

    FNP- good, bad, or ugly?

    I have an FNP .40, great gun.

    You might be a gun nut if... (my apologies to Jeff Foxworthy)

    If this is how you keep the neighborhood kids off your lawn.... If this is your idea of the ultimate barbeque grill....

    Georgia Arms Ammo

    I shot a can of 1000 .45 ACPs at a recent 2 day handgun course in West GA. Flawless with none (that's zero, 0, nada) FTF's or FTEs.

    Kimber Ultra Carry Compact, Springfield Loaded Parkerized Fullsize, Charles Daly Fullsize, Taurus PT1911 fullsize, Para LTC Commander size.

    1911 Carry Choices...

    Kimber Ultra Carry or my Para LTC. I change monthly for no apparent reason. :)

    Handgun classics - gotta have

    If you're gonna get a classic, you gotta have an original .44 Magnum Auto Mag, like my 1974 High Standard .44 Magnum Auto Mag. May never shoot it, but a classic indeed. Not to mention it looks nice sitting next to my other "Dirty Harry" gun, a S&W Model 29-8 .44 Magnum.... :)
