    Beretta 71, Finally!

    Dude, I saw your chromed beauty from time to time here and that just intensified my desire to find one. That’s a beautiful piece!

    Beretta 71, Finally!

    Some years ago I got to shoot a Beretta 70 and loved it. Alas he wouldn't part with it. For years I have looked for a good specimen. I looked at the surplus guns with the fake suppressors and they all looked the worst for wear. One popped up on my radar and my credit card popped out of my...

    One More Sixgun! Colt Detective Special.

    As I watch old episodes of the Rockford Files, I want one. I'd even keep it in the cookie jar with some Oreos

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    I see your Mak and raise you a Beretta 71 from 1959. I've been looking for years and finally found one and overpaid. But she's dang close to being new. Light was quite harsh

    Another Flattop followed me home

    Lucked into an Anniversary 44 Flattop Blackhawk last week and thought I my (small) Ruger SA collection was complete. Then I spotted this beauty! I love the look of the shorter barrel, and have been wanting a 45ACP for sometime. Don't have anything else in 45LC. I think I'm done now and I may...

    New Model Flattop 44M

    as @Kookla posted, it is under the barrel. The top of the barrel has the gold anniversary markings. I haven't taking the grips off to look at the internals, but the trigger on this Ruger is exceptional. And it appears to have the lock as the keys were present in the case but no hole was...

    New Model Flattop 44M

    Vaquero 44 Mag birdshead. I couldn't see the sights well enough at range so I traded it off. She was a great looker though...

    New Model Flattop 44M

    I've been looking for a Super Blackhawk in 44 on the used market since the new prices have greatly increased. Found one online, looked good, so I made the purchase. I wasn't paying attention to details. Upon arrival I thought I was confused. She was marked New Model Blackhawk 44 Magnum, not...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    I've been looking for a Super Blackhawk, and found a 50th Anniversary Flattop Blackhawk in 44 in almost NIB condition, appears unfired.

    And the Bikini Team! I'd love to get ahold of a Ruger No. 1 in 6.5 but prices are stratospheric. Likely get a Tikka. Love my M96 1917

    Kibler Kit Questions

    Not wishing to hijack either of the two beautiful thread going on here, but wow, what beautiful rifles! It seems like the Pedersoli and Lyman rifles are in short supply and the other builders are well north of 2 grand. The Kibler kits definitely have my attention. How much specialized work...

    Braced Pistol stamp Watch Thread

    This is encouraging as I submitted mine 5/13. I want to put a "real" stock on my Stribog. I wonder what happens if the rule is eventually struck down. Will the stock be illegal or will the SBR approval stick?

    Relics of War

    Most interesting. Both my grandfathers served in WW2. Neither served lamb and neither did my mother or father cook lamb for me. My first experience was kababs at a Middle Eastern restaurant. I wonder if my elders attitude of lamb reflects yours?

    Relics of War

    My grandfather served in Europe under Patton in WW2. He was wounded in France--shot twice in the chest and survived! I have a P-38 that he brought back (no cool story) and some of his Army medals and insignia. Sadly the P38 was in a basement flood and he wiped most of the marks from it...
