The 'Shop of Horrors' that is the Canadian Firearms Center makes most of it up as they go along. Hopefully, the new Conservative Government will get rid of that, as promised.
The range I go to is an 24/7 outdoor range, large facilities, 8 individual ranges for rifle/shotgun/practical (IDPA/IPSC type stuff) a trap range, and what is essentially a 360 course of fire sand pit. I go once/twice a week and shoot the matches on a Saturday. However, since reading posts here I'm dry firing every day (following TS's advice) with my Glock *not pictured* (not following TS's advice)  although a USP .40 would be great if I could find a used one.)

Good luck with the new government. If they can clean up even a little of the mess the socialists have made it'll be a miracle. Your range sounds like a nice facility. How long before you can put the skis away and get out the hip waders? Are the mosquitos really large enough that you need the Bennelli?  Peregrino

White stuff is gone thank goodness, shooting in -4F is a morale killer. (Unless you're 10th Group - I hear they like it that way.)
Mosquitos ain't nothin, but the Northern Ontario black flies will pick a man apart in 60 seconds (match that, FS). Thats why I pack the M1.

The first gun started it's life as a plain jane Springfield. It had a bunch of work done to it by George Smith at EGW.
The second gun is a 9MM and was built by Virgil Tripp on a Caspian slide and frame.
I picked up an FN Hi-Power MKIII in 40 S&W today and will try and take some pictures of it when I get a chance. I won't bother to take picks of my other guns. If you have seen one stock Glock or XD you have seen them all.

Edit: taking some Uni girls shooting next week, I'll try and take pics for you magician |

I think we all want to see the armories of TR, TS, and AM. They're probably not done unloading since you posted though.

pistolas.jpgnothing high speed or special here - just a couple of my favourite plinkers in 9mm. the G19 i've had since '90, and it's been my main hiking/camping/anything gun. i had the sudden urge to refinish it a couple of weeks ago (it was looking a bit ratty and rubberneck is right - stock glocks are boring), so i sprayed the slide in OD alumahyde II and the frame in coyote. the added grip pattern i had done with a soldering iron. scott warren sights.
good old BHP with some cylinder and slide parts, grip tape, spiegal rosewood grips.
cheers,
MM

That would make it a No4 I think?
I plan on getting one for myself when I get back. It's number one on my list.

Ok... you wanted Gun Porn... How about what has been described as my Pimp Gun. This is one that I built from one of the few stainless steel STI recon frames ever manufactured. If has a very long list of high end parts and shoots as great as it looks. Yes I went with a blue grip section, but that can be changed easily. Enjoy
