New acquisitions for September 2010

[Karl]

I went to a couple of local shops Saturday morning... I hit State Line in Mason and then Pelletiers in Jaffery. Sitting in the back of a cabinet at Pelletiers was this 1976 Colt Lawman MkIII 2 inch snubbie.

It's got about 90% original bluing and the original matching number stocks. I almost didn't buy it but for less than $300 I couldn't say no.

Bought my first pistol from J&G at the start of the month. Sig P6 German police trade-in--ugly on the outside but not much shooting wear. After encounters with a friendly gun shop needing IT work, and some helpful former P6 owners, I now have quite a pile of hardware. The Garrity IWB is beautiful and must have cost the original owner a pretty penny.

Finish wear= character. If it runs and shoots nice I'd rather buy a used than new gun any day. Nice 1st pistol.

QFT. Finish wear is sexy.

I bought the 2 WASR10s this month, PSL's old news but I was taking a family pic.

 

[flintoid]

nice AK's! One is never enough! how is the wasr2? I've heard the century builds with non-chromed barrels are comparable to a low end ar15 as far as accuracy goes

Bubba'd Winchester .30 M1 Carbine w/ early features rescued from an auction board:

Anyone in need of a "hunting" stock ?

Just yesterday I've got my hands on a deactivated early Rock-Ola. The furniture of that one will go onto the Winnie.

 

[45collector]

That stock certainly does look strange on a carbine. Kind of defeats the purpose of "carbine"!

Do you like the push-button safety more than the lever-style? I always wondered why they changed that.

 

[JuergenG]

I really don't mind which kind of safety button/lever as I never use it.
My first Carbine has a lever and that's quite strange to handle.

 

[HiggityHank]

Not a gun, but I did just get a Hornady LnL AP

I'd post pics, but that's lame. It looks just like everyone else's.

On a budget this month, plain vanilla Marlin 60...

...and a range bag with so many pockets and organizers I'm gonna lose stuff in this thing...

 

[Carguy]

The Marlboro gun show ROCKS!! I found a wish list topper that was actually affordable! Dealer picked it up in a purchase of 77 guns from an older gentleman raising some cash. All original, 2 mags, cleaning brush, gas tube scraper, original book, box marked with serial number to the gun and even the original onion skin slip from the 1988 purchase!! H&K P7 M8...enjoy...I know I will...

 

[Machines]

Good lord, I'd love to find one of those in MA that isn't listed for silly money. Closest I got was a PSP at a show, but whoops, out-of-state dealer who can't actually sell it.

 

[The Goose]

Used Pedersoli Sharps .45/120. Appears to be unfired. Another big thumper!

 

[IPSC_DRL]

Looks good. Can I ask what scope that is?

Sorry for the delayed reply. It is a "Hammers" dual illuminated (red/green) mil-dot I picked up from the Marlboro show in February. It works OK for a cheap scope.

Incomplete sentences are a pet peeve of mine. (I can play, too!)

To keep mildly on topic, I decided that shooting was a really expensive hobby, so I figured I'd find a nice, cheap one to compliment it. I purchased a Nikon D80 DSLR with the kit 18-55mm lens last month off a coworker, and this month I bought a Nikkor 50mm f/1.8.

So, like I said, a nice, cheap hobby.

Sorry to make an OT post, but technically his post had a subject verb and object and is a complete sentence. Also, you are completely allowed(by English grammar) to start sentences with and, but, or because, despite what your English teaching in school may have told you.

Well, color me educated.

Two S&W 442 Pro's. I learned online that S&W started making 442's with no internal lock and pre-cut for moon clips so I asked Carl at Four Seasons to order them (SW SKU178041). Apparently Carl thought it was interesting too so he ordered a few for his shop.

Each 442 comes with 3 moon clips. The gun fires fine without the moon clip too:

Look Ma, no lock!

P.S. The model is also eligible for the SW $50 rebate

Not exactly new for me.....but the Cerakoting is! Just got it back last Friday from Lou at Business End Customs.

 

[Bulldog87]

That looks really sick. I wonder how that would look on my 1911PD.

Thank you! I'm sure it would come out awesome. Take a look at Lou's website, Cerakote has several different colors. The VZGrips I put on it are so nice, best grips I've used to date.

took the entire year, but i accomplished one of my goals for this summer.

 

[Sir_Macadoo]

Looks great.

 

[TBalls]

Took advantage of the big deal @ Four Seasons and picked up a Ruger SR9c. The picture's not of mine, but I swear it looks just like it.

 

[Sir_Macadoo]

Finally got a pair of M&P9 mags for a promotion from last year. Finally got a rep who cared enough to fix it.

 

[vicpinto]

Better late than never I guess.
