What gun did you buy today?

[orbitup]

I really want one of those with threaded barrel. How's it shoot?

Ahaha, sorry. Not sure how I missed your post. Thanks. Sounds like I need to swing by a gun shop and hold one for a minute before I decide on that one then

Good luck. I visited plenty of shops around the state trying to do the same thing without any luck. It looks like you live a stone's throw from me. You can handle mine.


OOC thread here I come.

Im pretty sure I saw them at DFW Shooting Sports in Bedford when I glanced around while I was hunting down a Tavor, but a chance to shoot one would be even better

Come on out to the family reunion. I know of at least one Tavor that will be there for sure.

Sounds like a good time. When and where?

April 13, I believe. At Texas Star Shooting Range in Kempner, Texas. See the TGT Family Reunion thread.

I picked up what appears to be a 1947 browning A5 12ga. At one point the factory non ribbed barrel was cut off with a hack saw to 18 inches.

I am now deciding if I should keep it as is or SBS it down to a smaller size.

I hope I don't hate this..... place tossed in a $28 box of ammo so I could shoot it this week and let them know what I thought.

I'd love to get one of those. The cost of the ammo and lack of options keeps me from going all in on a P90 and a Five Seven

Great gun, least amount of recoil of any pistol I have fired including .22lr.

5.7 ammo is very easy to find now. During the drought, it was impossible.

Ammo was $16.00/50 last time I bought some.

I have been looking for a Bond Bullpup for quite some time. I finally found one at a great price at the Pasadena gun show today. Unfortunately it was lost in boating accident on the way home.

Gots me a Shield 380EZ just because.

I think you'll like it. Fun guns for sure.

I SWEAR! And I DO MEAN, I Swear, the next house I buy or live in will not have a body of water within 300 miles.

With my luck though, I'll fall through a rusted manhole cover during a 1000 year flood

It almost seems like it's that far from my place, yet all my guns seem to find that same fate.

My CMP M1911A1 showed up yesterday!

 

[busykngt]

MORE pictures please! (From front, back, top, bottom, inside out(!)... whatever you can manage!). What grade is it (Service grade)? Did they send a magazine with it? (Interesting: no idiot scratch). Ithaca manufactured.... any idea what year?

Here's a bunch of pics I took. https://imgur.com/a/IaM9iRy

It's a Service Grade. As far as I can tell both the slide and frame are Ithaca and the frame was manufactured in 1943. It was re-arsenaled at Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) in March 1980. It came with a magazine (see pics).

That's all I know about it, but I would love to hear anything else that anyone here can figure out.

As for the lack of Idiot Scratch, I assume you're talking about the common scratch that people mark when putting back in the slide release lever after a field strip? This is my first 1911, so I've been especially careful when stripping it.
