Thanks! I have two boxes of 32 rim fire for the Smith, loaded to the old specs. I wish those two guns could talk, an evening with a cigar, whiskey, and oil lamp light would be great.

Latest gun show pickup. It's a M1917 w/ US markings; SN dates it to 1918. $425 out the door. I'm gonna have a gunsmith go over it before I shoot, but thanks to Indiana Jones I've always wanted one of these and was thrilled to get it for Taurus money. Came with some Pachymar grips that I like but didn't have on for this photo. Plan is to give it a tune-up (but not an action job, just repair/replace/refit so it's in good shooting order) then shoot it a bunch and get a factory letter and unless said letter says it was factory nickeled (extremely unlikely), at some point I'll have it reblued.
Gun show before that was this stupid, marvelous gun. Lots of fun with the .410s; pretty darn accurate with .45 LC.

Nice day out today, should have been shooting with the guns, too windy, so shot with the phone instead.

Just got a grail gun for me yesterday. It’s a US Navy marked WWII S&W Victory revolver made in 1943 in 38 Special. It was carried by Naval Aviators during the war.

I picked up a Craftsman roller cabinet from Lowe's on Sunday. Getting it home was an ordeal...I thought it would be flat-packed (how?? I don't know) and the larger cabinet wouldn't fit in my Challenger. Luckily Lowe's rents trucks for the princely sum of $19.
I'm now using it to store and organize my handguns and knives. The dresser I was previously using for this had sagging drawers from the weight; the 50lb rated drawers should help with this. I love having everything visisble and honestly think it might cut down on impulse buys.
ETA:
Left to right:
- Colt King Cobra Target .22
- Nickel S&W 1917
- S&W Model 14
- Ruger Wrangler
- Tisas Tank Commander nickel
- Springfield Lightweight Champion
Second drawer:
- Sig SP2022
- S&W Shield 1.0 w/Streamlight TLR-6
- Glock 49 (19L)
- S&W M&P 2.0, 5" 9mm, FDE w/ Streamlight TLR-1HL
Third drawer:
- Henry U.S. Survival
- Rossi Brawler

I am not a 1911 guy, but you just gotta love a platform that you can build a functioning gun from leftovers.

My S&W 586 chambered in .357 Magnum, made in the early 80's. I swiped the pic from GunsAmerica but mine is identical. Sweet shooter.

A man after my own heart, nice knife drawer. I used to have this level of organization, now everything is everywhere and I hate it. Nice collection!

I have never been satisfied with the grips on this custom 3" kframe pre-10.
I bought it with cheesy fake stags.
Then I put on a bargain bin set of Ropers.
I thought they looked too big for this short barrel gun.
So were the Pachmayr combat grips...
I then stole a set of magnas from one of my 10s. They looked pretty common to my eyes, so I ordered a set of Altamont's aged Ivory(imitation of course). They arrived a few days ago.
Im undecided.....
They aren't quite as.....umm, classy ..? .as I had hoped for?
I like the theme .. and I do like the feel, and size.
Maybe I'm too critical.
