Yeah. I love em tho. Tho by keeping the money set aside and being patient I tend to find good deals. That being said there are two guns out there that if I encounter them it probably wont matter how they are priced as long as I have the money. Ha.

You would think people would be hoarding up guns, but I'm having a hard time not buying them .I'm see them so cheap. This is a Full size HK and was WAY under retail. Brand new in the box. Never shot.

Picked up another USP, This is the full size Tactical version. Threaded barrel, match grade trigger, and high adjustable sights to clear the suppressor. I bought the first one w/ the thoughts that I would just buy the parts I needed to make it supressed. It quickly became clear that just buying the tactical was a better idea. Hoping to get my paperwork started ASAP.

Nice rig.

Don't worry about paperwork; just shove a spud onto the threads when you need suppression.

lol rgr that. Have a beefcake safe or two.. I'll post pics tomorrow of my Remington Rand 1911A1 made in 1945 in roughly 95% condition. I doubt the thing has more than a few boxes thru it. Mostly holster wear in the few spots it actually has wear.

Including pics of my H&R M1 Garand & a Winchester 1897 previously owned by Fred Barker. Passed down thru an LE family before they birthed a crackhead and it made its way to open market. I'm working with an era gangster "expert" to track down a more detailed history of the shotgun. The other shotgun in the photo is a Remington 11-A. Wasnt on my "list", but I got a good price. I like it because the 11-A was used prior to WW-2 by the military training crewmen for anti-aircraft guns. They shot clays in AIT to teach the concept of leading a target. Hows that for AIT? Sounds fun!

A few "Quiet" pics....

We all know they aren't really "Quiet", but they do make a lot less noise. Anyway, here are a few.
