The gun (Pistol or Revolver) you will never sell..

sold a USP to get this one:

DSCF4319_zpsd5a8b37a.jpg


lots of people say the MK25 is a marketting gimmick, but to me the tritium sight, true 1913 picatiny, phosphate coated internals and chromelined barrel are well worth an extra 100$. I liked it enough to buy a MK18 to keep it company. my two favorite guns for sure.
 
S&W 29-2 and my Dan Wesson .357 Hunter Pac in Dan Wesson samsonite case with key, tool, extra shroud with Burris scope. Both are 100% Mint! I've never even seen a Hunter Pac up here. Quite sad actually. I've not shot either and don't plan on it. True collector pieces. Open, clean, oil, drool, lock back up...(sigh).
 
Definitely without a doubt it's my HK P7M13 sport, I got a deal on it a couple years ago and I know for a fact that if I sell it, I will never find another. And plus it's a bad ass gun.

I don't sell guns... My guns are the only thing that I own that are not for sale, regardless of the amount that someone were to offer. My collection will continue to grow over the years and my children will get them when I die.

Take my advice everyone, don't sell any! Unless they are an incredible piece of crap, keep them all.

Many years ago I sold my S&W Model 41 and 4505. I have been kicking myself ever since. Sure I can buy another 41 but you try to find a 4505. They only made around 1,200 of them. Aaaaarghhhhh! :mad:

Well, either crap or commodity guns, I would say. The entry level stuff, the replicas and clones - those come and go. Your SAMs, Girsans, Norincos, alphas, Uberti, etc - they aren't worth clinging to unless connected to a life event (like my Mk-II for that matter).

Oh, you gotta shoot that Dan. You'll love it, it can take it. I've never seen a Hunter Pack up north here.
 
Colt 1862 Police .36 Cal made in the early 70's, the frame is the same size as the Pocket 1849 but the rebated frame allows the bigger calibre.
With the fluted cylinder and silver plated back-strap it is a good looking gun, it is also a good shooter.

 
None. Only ever traded away a 17HMR that I got on a whim and realized it was too expensive to shoot when I reload 223 for not much more than it cost to feed the 17 and 223 is just a better option for me. There are guns that don't get shot often as others but when I get them out to the range I enjoy every one of them. Some I've real sentimental attachments too like my first 22 actually it was my first firearm ever and of course my great grandfathers K31 service rifle. I like to collect as well and some of my pieces are just simply cool pieces of history that I admire for where they've been and what they've seen.
 
Everything is for sale with the exception of two model 94's that my Great Grandfather bought new back in the late 1800's. Those I will never sell. They will both be handed over to my oldest son when the time comes. All my other stuff is just rented scrap iron. I have zero emotional attachment to any of it. That being said, perhaps my children will see that differently with whatever I have left in my collection when I pass on.

Edit. I guess if I had to choose to keep just one it would be my Colt SAA.

I have a Luger PO8, made in 1908, with a very low 4 digit serial number, and all matching (including the mags) that I would never sell.

I also have a Colt SAA, first generation, in excellent condition, that I also wouldn't want to sell.

Beyond those, pretty much everything else has a price tag. IF I decided to sell.
 
First of all I wouldn't sell it because no one would want to buy it. I picked up this little Norinco 22LR plinker with extra mags new for 179 dollars. Now when I say new I mean new in box the gun was actually manufactured in the 1980's. After cleaning it up and replacing some small washers and screws it turnd out to be an excellent little shooter. This pistol is more reliable and accurate than my GSG 22 and finds its way into the range bag whenever I go shooting. I've got a good selection of hand guns but for some reason this one is special to me.

This is really eye appealing!

What is best shooting load for this Skinny 1950?

Does it print high at 20-25 yards or spot on??

curious....
 
Ruger Mk.1.

I put up the first target of the day, an 8.5" X 11" sheet of paper with a photocopied home-made target, on the 50 meter backboard. Shot the first mag, walked up to check the target, and said to myself, no way in hell you can pull that off again. Put up a new target, shot the next mag, and swore I'd never sell this pistol. Besides, my dad bought it for my mom, and she loved it too.



The trigger breaks at just under 2#.
