Sweet.

My photos are no longer there thanks to photo bucket, which I escaped a year ago. So here, with your permission, I try again.

Thanks for reposting your gun collection; very nice indeed!

NIGHTLORD40K

Now that's a Remington Model 51!

Mine is a little worse for wear, as it was pocket carried by my wife's grandfather from the 1920s through the '40s here in Central Texas. They shoot nice, don't they?

Sure do!

George Patton carried one in a shoulder rig whenever the cameras were off and his Colt SAAs were safely tucked away.....

I got a new revolver recently so I'll post a family pic of my Blackhawks.
Just got the one in the middle last weekend.

From top to bottom:
NM Blackhawk .45 Colt
NM Super Blackhawk .44 magnum
NM Blackhawk .357 magnum

I picked up this Ruger MKII, 10” bull barrel back in the late 80’s for $125. It was a beater with a lot of the finish gone. But it shot like a champ.
I was working with an old Gunsmith dark then and learning how to hot blue guns. It was the first gun I did a mat blue finish on. That was in 1988. When my eyes were better, I used it for squirrel hunting.

I picked up this High Standard Sport King up at a pawn shop for under $200, because it was missing the magazine.
I found an original mag for $75, but passed on it and picked up an off brand one for $12. The guy told me that it didn’t feed good. Only took 5 min to fix the mag.

Kind of proud of the images. Generally they are not so good.

I have found that if you take your pics outdoors in nature light, they tend to come out better.
I like the grips on you gun.

Thanks- I might give that a try! Thanks for the tip!

Recently picked up a new CZ P-09 Urban Grey (with the suppressor night sights, threaded barrel and 21-round mag) and built a P80 G17.

On top of that, I converted a 80's vintage briefcase to transport them to the range in a discreet manner:

Thanks! It was a bit of a head-turner at the range last weekend.

Colt Diamondback .38

Manurhin .32 Walther PP

ancientnoob,

Well you just answered the "It's 1940 and what do you ccw?" thread......

That is verinice. What are those grips? some sort of stag? Giraffe leg bone?

In 1940 that would have been great in a leather shoulder holster under a suit jacket for trips to town, church, and such. Shoot I would be a great BBQ gun to day in a OWB leather holster.

Thanks for sharing.

I used to carry my guns to the range using an old briefcase like the one you have. I liked it because it was an inconspicuous and handy way to take your guns, targets, and accessories to the range. Like your customization with the cut-out foam insert.
