Ooops yes marked P7 9x19 IE

Not sure what you're asking. I've owned a few P7s. AFAIK, there are no aftermarket mags for them, and the stock ones ain't cheap. They are super guns, collectible, great shooters, nothing bad about them other than the price. I believe there will be a flood of German police turn-ins coming to the US in a year or two. There are 30,000 of them coming out of service there, but there's a debate over whether to destroy them or export to the US. The last one I got was $500 around 2006. They're $1500 now.

I was given a box of old dirty 1911 and Ruger 22 magazines there's 1 p7 mag and 2 single stack IA45 marked mags in 99%.

My wife says she wants one of those for Christmas. I’m going to call her bluff.

Any HK,P7 and P9 45acp owners in the house? I have 1 P7 and 2 P9 magazines in near new maybe not used shape

I've had a few P7s, got my last one for $500 and am kicking myself for selling it. I know they're crazy expensive now, but there's still a debate going on in Germany about what to do with the 30,000 of them coming out of service this year. If they flood the US with them, they'll get cheap again real fast. If not, they'll never be cheap again.

I wouldn't mind one but not at $1500+ that and $150 magazines make it a no buy for me

When the Walther p38 came out of service and hit the US market in the early 90s you couldn't give one away...in a few years they were asorbed and prices recovered. Today the ww2 vintage p38 prices are quite strong. The same will happen to the p7.

I bought a nice HP p38 at Abels in LA back in the late 90s for 275..i knew what it was when I saw it, the other bidder saw it as a used spoon.

Very cool stuff, Peter.

Here is my very own version of "Killdeer". It's an old Tennessee Mountain Rifle, from Dixie Gun Works. They were selling them back in the late '70's and early '80's, both in finished rifle and in kit form. I bought mine in kit form from an old gentleman who was the proprietor of The Knife and Black Powder Gun Works from whom I had purchased one of the old Thompson Center Hawken kits.

I was about 19 when I purchased the Hawken kit from him, which he sold me with a good bit of skepticism. "I wanna see it when yer done, kid." So, thinking I had done o.k. for a first try, I brought it in to show him several months later. He said "wow, not only did you not completely ruin it, you actually did a pretty darn good job".

Then he told me he had been sitting on a "pretty special" rifle kit, but was having a hard time finding time to finish it. Then he said that he wasn't willing to sell it "to just anybody", but he would be willing to let me have it at his cost. That's when he brought out the Tennessee Mountain Rifle. I bought it on the spot.

Well, it took me a year to finish it. It took the longest to finish the cherry wood stock. He told me that once I had it fully inletted, the barrel fit, the furniture all fitted, to rub one coat of boiled linseed oil into it every day for a week, then every week for a month, then every month for a year.

That was 1980/1981. I've hunted with it off and on since then, taking several mulies. It's purely a round ball shooter, .50 caliber. It's of the "Tennessee Poor Boy" pattern, with all iron furniture (which I browned myself), and a grease hole instead of a patch box. It has a 41" barrel with a 56" twist, and shoots as well as I can hold. It mostly hangs over the fireplace now, but I still shoot it every now and then.

New to me Dan Wesson .45ACP
 

One of my bucket list firearms...thanks to Signora Coats:

It's a Dan Wesson PMA-S Match Target 1911 in .45 ACP, which means
• PM = Pointman
• A = Aussie market gun (no clue how it ended up here in the USA)
• -S = Stainless

Chief's Special has got a new friend. The first one is nickle plated and I've had it five years or so. The stainless one I got yesterday. I really like these :)

Bill, I've handled a gun like that in .357 and I'd agree. Sweetest action. I think it was from the mid-sixties.

.357, nice.

Yes, these are just puppy sized ones in .38 Special. Great trigger.

Yep, just puppy sized. J-frame.

I think that's not a J frame. K? J frames are Saturday night specials. That one is a little bigger. I could be very wrong on this. My J frame is smaller than that, I think.
