  1. Past hour
  2. I switched from sales to HVAC in my 40s. It was tough getting started, but hands-on work keeps me active and I sleep better at night knowing I did something useful.
  3. You can see a glamps of fur on it's chest. Bobcat for sure.
  4. Today
  5. So many moons ago, (early '80's), I had to make a decision what I liked and disliked. Dept required we use something that could fire .38 spl. So, with not much to offer, it was either going to be S&W or Colt... Went to the shop and I needed to be convinced of which. Then, it was a matter of preference. The S&W rattled a tad when you shook it, the Colt, solid as a rock. So, my love of Colts started up. Within a short period of time, I bought a 4" Nickel Python, 6" Royal Blue Python, a Nickel 1911 MKV Series 70. Short after, ...the Colt Lawman Mark III .357 My carry was the 4" Python and backup was the Lawman. My dept was hell bent on not using revolvers anymore, so I was able to carry the 1911.... (would be nice if they paid something), but truth be told, revolvers were not that expensive, and I already had what I needed. Over the years, I started getting more interest in semi-autos and went with HKs... I sold my 6" to a guy in AZ, my 4" to a kid just out of the academy and my Lawman to the guy that owned my marina... Knowing what we know today for the going price, I kick myself in the arse for getting rid of them. Who would have known. Kept the 1911 only for remembrance. Eventually had it chromed, (nobody does nickel anymore ,(and if so, would be very expensive) ... and fitted with tritium sights my old eyes could see... So, my quest. I just got my hands on an excellent 1976 vintage Lawman Mark III. Must have been in someone's safe for decades because looks like it was never shot. Still had cosmoline on some parts. I got a deal that I could not pass up. I will slowly rebuild my Pony/Pythons of yester-year. My only Colts and hopefully not the last:

    Walther PPQ

    I like them as well. I think the paddle mag release was a neg on the first gen PPQ. That may have slowed them down some. Also the HK VP9 is also the same firearm. I see more of those for sell than the PPQ's for some reason. I had my PPQ for sell and never got a offer. I ended up giving it to my daughter for her 21st BD.
  9. And I was told that the money stays within the state. That's when I stopped bitching about paying it.
  10. When’s the last time you saw a crate of mosins? Will be there with several foreign military surplus estate guns which will be offered on behalf of the family. Stop by & take a look if you’re out.
