My first firearm, finally.. Here with Hornady Hallow point rounds and my WWII Airbourne Dice

Got it out of the box with night sights!

Love me some Fat Tire!

Haven't shot it yet, but looking forward to it!

Ahh....The new loaded pistol and alcohol smell....

bobarian · 07-20-2012, 01:12 AM

Wow, just wow. That's a potential ad for either gun or birth control.

Did someone mention Darwin Awards?

Adriftpanda · 07-20-2012, 05:08 AM

Gnarly. Alcohol and guns mesh well I heard.

Ever get your ar17?

Andrew, like the others have mentioned, Please don't ever mix alcohol with firearms ever, even if it's just one.

Other than the above, nice pistol, I've been wanting a full size M&P with thumb safety for a while now.

Bageland2000 · 07-20-2012, 12:16 PM

That bottle was left over from the night before, but duly noted to leave it out of the pictures. I was drinking out of the water bottle

theonlybear4CORT · 07-20-2012, 03:28 PM

What's th verdict on the hornady match 75gr steel ammo?

bonjing · 07-27-2012, 10:22 AM

If anyone is looking for a light, LA police gear is having a nice sale on surefire handhelds.

Picked up a Ruger Charger in a trade the other day. I never really wanted one of these but I kinda like it, Much better balance than I ever thought it could have.

That is all.

I haven't seen one of these before. Is it a 10-22 based pistol?

Just searched it out, looks fun.

I ran across a pretty good deal on a S&W Model 36 this week. It's been carried a lot more than shot, with some finish problems but mechanically sound. Just needs a good cleaning.

Blueface · 07-27-2012, 04:44 PM

I got myself in a bind this week.
Ordered a bunch of ammo, to include .40 caliber.
Problem lies with me having a .380, 9mm, .45 and AR for firearms.
As you can see, I don't list owning a .40

I approached my wife and explained to her that as the problem solver I am, I quickly figured out how to resolve this.
(off to the gun show tomorrow and get a Glock 27, Baretta PX4 Storm Sub Compact or a Springfield XD Essential).
Problem solved.

No think tank needed here.
