Any Firearm Snobs on board?

Nowhere near as fancy as a lot of the revolvers above, but the 386pd is still one of the guns I aspire to own one day.

I'll settle for a 627 Performance Center if I can't find the 386 one day. 627 is 8 rounds of 357/38 while the 386pd is 7.

I'm scared of guns...

SteyerAUG wins, close the thread.

After seeing all of his happy switches, I'm depressed

That drilling is amazing, and love the VZ58, don't see them much it seems.

But all the select fires, damn man, nice work :thumbup: I understand about collecting at an early age, but at 9 my first gun was a 10/22 and yours was a Luger. You win. I'm accumulating stuff, I've just yet to find that guy who wants to sell a transferable select fire for $400

I've moved the safes and done that as well. The wife always seems to want to hover as if she can tell what if any new guns I've snuck into the house.

That is a 29, I knew the 29 market was gonna go through the roof when the python prices started to climb. I lucked out and ended up with about 8 of each and a half dozen king cobras. Snake collectors are a sick bunch. S&W prices have become very strong over the last 10 years too.

I have a Colt Python and a second series Colt Detective (need to get pics). I love Colt revolvers but they aren't constantly in danger of imminent banning so I just can't prioritize the funds to getting all the ones I want. They are also pretty well established in the premium prices market so it's not like I'm missing the bandwagon.

Basically I need more money.

I'll try to get pictures of my gun that may fit in here, I have a winchester '94 that was made in 1914, you don't see '94s that ages very often anymore. And yes, I still shoot it and quite regularly at that.

Every man should have built for himself one custom rifle sometime in his lifetime. Had this one built on a Steyr M1903 Mannlicher Shoenauer action from 1909. I rescued the action in Hawaii from a knucklehead who wanted to try to modify (ruin) it to handle 7.62x39.mm. Barrel is a custom Kreiger chambered for 6.5X54mm MS which is the cartridge for which the action was designed.

German .22lr turnbolts.

Mauser ES340N from the '30s.
Mauser Mas M45 (Mauser bannered) from the mid '40s.
Walther KKJ from 1968.

The KKJ at Quantico

 

[leghog]

Three of my Winchesters. M04-22, M57, and M69. I traded an all original 60% finish US property marked M1911 from December 1913 for these three rifles and a fist full of $100 bills a couple of springs ago.

My only snobbery is that the gun must shoot, and do it well. But here is one of my favorites...

Magnum Research BFR in .460 S&W mag. Its zero'd at 200 yards. I have many more toys, but this is all I'm posting for now.

Nice KKJ! I've shot a lot of .22 target rifles, and that model always impressed me, even more than many of the more modern Walther and Anschutz builds. What sight do you have on there? Looks great.

Huh. I've never seen one with a peep sight, just the blades... looks awesome.

I pretty much like anything as long as it's quality. I only have a budget and room in the safes for users though.

One of my more interesting guns. M1 Carbine. Only thing that sets this one apart is that it has the name of the last Israeli it was issued to before being imported back to the states.

Terrible pic of an AR15 I assembled from a kit

And my latest pawn-shop find. Ithica 20ga. single shot. I had been thinking about getting a 20 gauge and this thing was too cool to not get.

Of course I have many others but nothing that really stands out.
