Country:  | The Guns We Own
I thought it might be interesting for the members to tell and maybe even
show their gun collections. I am sure there are folks out there who
do not/will not own a gun. And, again, I'll bet there are some real
gun collectors among us. I have taken the liberty to upload some
pic's of my guns.
The shotgun is a JC Higgins model 1011 .20 gauge. The barrel was 36
inches, but was cut to 34 1/4 inches. It's 1/4 inch over legal.
The semi-automatics are a Bauer Arms Co. .25 (of Frazier. Mich),
an AMT .380 and a Smith & Wesson 9 mm.
The revolvers are older than I am. The snub nose is a "Bulldog" .38
and the long barrel is a H & R Arms Co. .32. The "Bulldog" has no
serial number, it was manufactured before serial numbers were
required. Note the octagonal barrels on the pistols.
Note to Chris: Sorry, man, no Walther PPK.

Country: | Just picked up a S&W .357 revolver. Also have a S&W 59 9mm but the thing keeps stove piping so I moved over to a revolver. Hate to have to NEED a gun and then have it go "ploink" after the first shot. Plus I don't have the time to recycle the mags. | |

I used to shoot the M1 Garand in competition... 300 rounds in practice will do a number on your shoulder!
I have a pre 1964 Remington .270
a Ruger 10-22 for plinking and 2 shotguns.
I intentionally avoid buying guns cuz I'm afraid i wont stop collecting them.

The trouble is there is too much to collect.. for too many reasons!
As a history buff, i'd like to have a pair of 18th century 68 caliber dueling pistols, A Kentucky rifle, a Mauser, an StG44..... there is no end!
As someone who likes to shoot, i want an M-14, a mini-14, 7mm mag, Desert eagle and an auto load shotgun with a magazine..
The only way I can practice discipline is through abstinence!... I'll stick to paper money....for now!

Country: | The gun I've always wanted to own was a German Navy Luger. They had
a very long barrel, I'm guessing about ten inches. I saw a couple at gun
shows, but I would have had to mortgage the house to own one.
Glider, those match rifles are beautiful....
