An actual Sig "P6" (on the slide), all-matching '01 proofed in Kiel Germany, acquired via a retail trade. The previous owner had 6 mags included! I suspect that he traded this for a double-stack handgun.

Can't believe that it was available in the new shooting range/gun store. As my buddy is a member, the store Shoot Point Blank actually let me Shoot the gun Before buying it.
Kinda cool that my P228 and 225 were also proofed in Kiel, with the 'squashed bug' stamp.

I'm a fairly lousy handgun shooter, but these Sigs and my CZ D and PO1 Compacts are such solid fun.

Newest on the left. Second newest on right. My home defense G17 was retired and replaced by the 19X with the light and threaded barrel. My carry G19 was replaced with the new 19X on the left in the photo.

Can’t say enough good things about the 19X so far, but maybe the fact I bought two says enough... A783A811-19E1-45BC-92F9-3ADE0BA5860E.jpeg
(No, I don’t carry or use ball ammo for SD/HD. Those are just to prop up the guns.)
 
A Glock 22 in 40 S&W. With law enforcement switching back to 9mm, I got an almost brand new one for $249 out the door. Never had a Glock or a 40 S&W before and like both. It became my second carry gun for when I wear something that can hide it...
 
I changed my avatar to my last purchase, S&W39-2. Box, papers and tools included.
The first commercial successful U. S. made pistol in 9mm Parabellum. The first commercial successful U. S. made pistol in DA/SA configuration. The Model 39 is what I refer to as a 'transition' firearm. It can be argued the M39 set the stage for the 'wonder-nine' fad of the 1970s and even today (201x). Not to mention the frame is alloy and the pistol is relatively light for size; easy to carry but not too small to shoot.

It is one of the few 9mm pistols I would consider for serious carry. Excellent choice.

Yep, that's why I bought it. And as a bonus it was made the year I graduated HS.
