Well, if it's a smith&wesson it's not a colt, and vice versa. It would be like saying you have a colt ruger. I could find no mention on wiki that s&w ever bought out that product line from colt.

I've looked into this, and you are 100%, and I stand corrected. It is not a S&W, but a Colt Python. I'm happy I posted here now!

I've seen the .45 version as cheap as 450.00.

But the cost varies wildly - depending on what version, the condition and whom you're buying it from.

I've been looking for the .50 (just for a novelty thing), and the prices I'm seeing vary between 950-1400.

I've heard from many it's not the most reliable gun, and it has more than its share of quirks.

Timing is everything. (and right now, your timing sucks - because everyone and their sister is "panic buying" guns due to the upcoming administration change - this of course is jacking up the prices)

I used to have a .45 glock. I had to get rid of it as it really is totally impractical. I mean If forced to use it against someone I would want to disarm them. That .45 would have removed heads. Totally not what I want to do. I have been meaning to pick up a 9mm as a replacement, but have yet to do so.

My .45 is my designated bedroom dresser gun. If someone breaks in my house and comes towards my bedroom in the middle of the night, I'm willing to remove heads.

I'm so quick and quiet I'd break in and have stolen it from your dresser before you even wake up. I'd also take the small change off your dresser but leave the roll-on deodorant.

That's what the little light is for. ;)

That Mossburg intrigues me. That would be my choice for a home-defence weapon.

Don't know if you want these posted here, but I also have some airsoft guns. Let's me have more fun collecting since I can't afford many real weapons. I use as many real-steel accessories as I can.

If these are Airsoft guns, then aren't they supposed to have some orange/fluorescent markings or parts on them? Otherwise isn't it illegal? :confused:

Got this one last month. She's a beauty in all respects.

Very nice. It looks to be one of the K98s re-arsenaled by the Yugoslavians? It has the German-style short hand guard but the side-mounted sling typical of the Yugoslavian Mausers. Although I don't recall seeing a Yugoslavian Mauser with a laminated stock like that..I have two similar rifles, an M24/47 and an M48A. All Mausers are excellent rifles.

Two recent additions to the collection:

leftsidesm.jpg


Nepalese made Martini-Franchotti rifle in .577/.450 caliber, circa 1870s-1880s. Bought "as-is" after over 100 years of arsenal storage. It's DIRTY. I'm currently into the long, slow process of restoring this to its former glory. Hopefully I'll get it into shooting condition someday - although I might never shoot it, seeing as ammunition for this rifle runs over $100 per box of 10 rounds! :eek:

M91fullsm.jpg


1896 Mosin-Nagant M91 with Finnish capture mark and Finnish stock. This isn't one of the millions of M91-30s out there as seen in Call of Duty or Enemy at the Gates. It's an original Mosin Nagant M91 (a very early dated one as well) that has been captured or purchased by the Finns and slightly modified with a new stock and sight gradations in meters as well as the traditional arshini. A fairly rare piece, and I got it for less than half what it's worth (which is what happens sometimes when you know what you're looking at!). The pride of my collection currently.

Dude, Lord Blackadder...awesome looking Mosin-Nagant. I really need to pick one up someday.

I kind of forgot about this thread. Here is my new Smith and Wesson 442-2 no lock!!! I picked it up about a week ago, and I shot it for the first time today, it's a real nice gun.

My state has no laws on it, but it is federal law to sell airsoft guns with a 0.25' orange tip. Anyone can paint an orange tip on a real firearm to disguise it as a toy, so the law is quite useless beyond that.

My airsoft guns are never seen by outside of my house and airsoft fields, as I transport them in cases in the trunk of my car, so it's not a problem.

I WISH I had some of these guns, but alas, I have not the spare funds to go and get one. My first would be a shotgun much like the one Galvatron has, except without the front pistol grip and maybe double barrel just cause that looks so awesome.

I have run around in the woods with a BAR for a movie. Such an awesome gun - but friggin' heavy!

<six awesome pictures and captions>

wow, your collection is aweeeesome.

on a side note, it's funny how some bb guns/pellet guns (whatever you want to label them as) look like real guns. my friend and i used to use his like constantly (back when i was young and dumb) and some guns here look like the ones we used to have.
