We need a new gun thread here.

Just scored a grail gun - a W. German, factory nickel SIG P226. Smoking deal and seller even shipped before he gave me payment info.



I have a few modern SIGs, but the old German decocker models cannot be beaten. Here are a few more of mine.






Snagged this one from a local gun store who didn't know what they had. Robar NP3! Stole it.

Wow... Nice! I really like the grips on the Robar NP3.

Wow! Beautiful! I am jealous - so much harder to find anything here in CA that's not an arm and a leg. I am partial to these classic SIGs as well.

The only one I'm remotely considering moving is a Robar and CCR nickel refinished W. German P228 in 9mm. But I'm getting to the point where I know I'll eventually regret selling the guns I've sold (except Glocks). So they keep piling up in the safe.

My latest acquisition

A few days ago I scored one of the new Colt 44 mag Anaconda revolvers with the 8" barrel! With the polished stainless finish, no less! So far all I have run thru it are some light (cowboy) loads. Almost no recoil or muzzle rise at all. A picture;

One of my favorite handguns is a Sig P220 in 45 acp also equipped with a Sig 22 rimfire conversion kit. That way I get to practice with 22 LR with the same trigger pull! I've had this Sig for maybe 35-40 years and would have to be desperate to part with it!

Don’t really need anything, but I’ve always wanted a Kimber 1911 TLE II.

Do you suddenly have the urge to watch Dirty Harry movies?

I have four P220s, three full size and one carry size. No better gun out there. And I regret the ones I've sold. I can always use more.

What is this "ones I've sold" mean. Is it code for something?
I can't say I have ever sold one. Maybe that just means I haven't bought enough yet?

Didn't your FBI go to a 10mm version of the Sig?

Sold my 220 stainless to neighbor. he enjoys telling me how nice it is. Ugh.

In practical terms i'll take a 365 but for joy of operation it sure is tough to beat the metal frame models. No plans to give up my 225A1

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

I used to have a Beretta 8045 Cougar (.45 ACP). The barrel didn't tip up and down, but rotated. That thing was accurate, at least compared to what else I had. I heard it was the FBI SWAT team pistol for a while. Regret selling it, but I'm happy with my CZ 75 Compact, which looks a lot like a Beretta.
