What gun did you buy today?

[TexasRedneck]

Spalted Maple?

I'm pretty sure that's what they are, but didn't want to say without being sure....

 

[Cool 'Horn Luke]

Never heard of spalted maple before. Had to look that one up. One of the first results was a youboob video of kitchen cabinets made of it. Looked really good. Congrats @TexasRedneck on the purchase.

Sold close to a 1/3rd of my collection to get this grail gun I’ve lusted after for 20 years. NIB I’m breaking it in this weekend, Manurhin MR73.

pinkys out! if you dont care, tell us how you got it and how much it was. Those things are so sweet.

Also did you sell the specialist to make this happen?

I found it on gunbroker and cost me 4333 shipped to an ffl. I still have the specialist but sold 2 rifles and 3 handguns to get the money for it.

It was a hard decision to make however I cleared up alot of space and got something I’ve wanted for so long. I’m not well off by any means so this was once in a life purchase for me.

Thank you, if you or anyone is down this way we can coordinate a range day I’ll bring it for all to shoot. Just humbly ask you provide the ammo you want to shoot I also have a 357 lever gun to use as well.

Even at that price, it's an heirloom piece, one of those things that will make you smile every time you pick it up. Good on ya!

BTW - Did anyone notice that Beretta is importing their 50th Anniversary Commemorative Edition? It has a 5.25" bbl, highly polished, and sorta engraved with gold filling.

It will sell for USD$11,000.00!

Thank you I’ve been smiles since I got it from the shop. I intend to shoot it often and enjoy it.

I did see that it just seems outlandish to me but that’s something I wouldn’t shoot.

When I bought my Nikon F5 it was way too expensive for my budget. But every time I picked it up it gave me a sense of satisfaction it's hard to describe. I know how you're feeling and I know it's good.

BTW - It helped that the F5 paid for itself after a short while.

On the 1911 forum someone bought a WWII USGI Colt in house custom from a top custom builder for 20k.

Older guy in San Antonio is liquidating a lifetime collection. I’m buying a little at a time.

My second Kahr S9……$218plus shipping & ffl

Against my better judgement, I picked up a S&W 457 at the local pawn. It’s their value line of third gen autos. This particular one is a .45acp compact single stack View attachment 428347

If it proves to be absolutely horrible, I will sacrifice myself and relieve you of the burden.

I've been waiting for at least 2 years for Beretta to tell me mine is finally in and ready for me. I've given up on them. Congrats, that's the one to get.

Picked up this gen 1 P99 from a member here. Came with 3 10 round mags, as it was made in 03. Need to find some gen 1 P99 compatible standard cap mags for it.
