Contest, Identify my gear, get silver coins +

[fracmeister]

OK, some of these may be tricky, but I have faith.

I thought I'd have a little fun and give away some stuff. Here is a

contest with some nice prizes for the winner. Basically you win by

identifying the items in the picture below and being the first to email

me. PMs don't count. You can post guesses here but you will only be

helping others. Prizes will include silver coins with at least one "old"

silver dollar, one new one and miscellaneous goodies I am assembling,

value is more than 100$.

You should respond in the following order, supplying only the info in

parenthesis.

1. Pistol (Manufacturer, type).
2. Laser sights on pistol (Manufactuer).
3. Suppressor on pistol (Manufactuer).
4. Flashlight (Manufactuer, type).
5. Fixed blade knife (Manufactuer).
6. Sunglasses (Manufactuer, style).
7. Shoes (Maker).
8. Leather bag (Maker). Note, this is a hard one and deserves a hint.

There were only eighteen made. Former Presidents Bush (41) and Clinton

one one. The maker is better known for other items of men's clothing.
9. The odd shaped device to the left of the shoes. (Manufactuer, name).
10. Folding knife (Maker). Hint, the maker is well known for custom

swords as well as knives.
11. Watch. (Manufacturer, style). Hint is that it has a red hand that is

on a 24-hour scale and the maker is a one syllable name.

Remember, the only guesses that count are the ones mailed to me and only

guesses with at least nine correct answers count. Contest will run until

a winner is named or July 1.

I am just waiting for the answers. I am dying to know what the titanium thingy is.

I did get it....

You NAILED eight of them. Very good. Like I said, minimum nine to win if no one gets them all in time. The bag and shoes may be tough, but they are very distinctive and can not be confused with others.

The "thingy" is right up the gadgets and gear lineup!


I am sure if you posted your answers someone else would hit the other stuff so fasy you'd lose though. Nail that thingy and you have a great shot at it!

I'm workin' on it. Assuming their right, I've figured out 7 of them. That thingy- I remember a thread about that being posted here, and can't remember for the life of me what it is/does/who makes it.
