Ruger Mini-30 in 7.62x39. Very nice rifle in excellent condition. Original box, three mags, scope rings and pic rail. Prefer to meet around Chattanooga. $875 obo Private collection and must be legal to own firearm in Tn.

A tree fell on my house, and while this Sig P322 would allow me to dispatch up to 20 squirrels abandoning ship as it fell, like cowards, it won’t fix my roof. As such, the safe is being lightened. $300, cash only, no trades. (also have a P365 X-Macro in a separate post, would do both for a discount) Included: - Sig P322 w/threaded barrel - 3 factory mags - Sig Holster w/OWB and IWB belt loops - All items included in original manufacturer box (curved trigger *flat currently installed*, mag loader, dry fire tab, box, thread cap, etc.) Condition: Like New - two range trips and a lot of gleeful giggles.

I could do 300. can you meet Sunday or monday?

Howdy folks. I've been job hunting for a few months so I haven't had a ton of time to hang out on the forum. I still don't have a job, but I wanted to post a part 2 to my original post on pocket guns since I've made a few acquisitions recently (and reorganized my existing stuff in the safe) From the top left and going clockwise Savage Model 1907 The Savage Model 1907 is a 32ACP pistol with some interesting lineage. This pistol originally began its life in .45ACP as a trials pistol submitted to the US government for testing. Ultimately Colt's M1911 was selected and the Model 1907 was shelved (although the Savage came in 2nd). Savage ultimately decided to begin producing the M1907 again, but in 32ACP (and later in .380). The biggest innovation on the pistol is the fact that it used a double stack magazine. The double stack magazine allowed for 10 rounds of 32ACP (9 rounds of .380) which made it pretty "high capacity" for the time. The marketing slogan for the pistol was "10 shots quick". This pistol can live up to that slogan if you don't keep it clean. Just like the CHICOM SKS rifles, the firing pin channel in this pistol can get gunked up if you're not careful and you'll get "10 shots quick" when you pull the trigger. Famous frontiersman Buffalo Bill carried this pistol as did retired lawman Bat Masterson. I've wanted one of these for a while now and I managed to score this one at a fair price at last year's Springtime TMCA show. I really wanted to get my hands on one of the older Savage pistols with the metal grips Mauser 1910 & 1914 I've avoided collecting .25ACP for years as I didn't want to get sucked into yet another caliber. That changed recently when I was given the opportunity to pick up a Mauser 1910 to go along with my Mauser 1914. This has also sent me down a rabbit hole of wanting to collect the .25ACP versions of various .32ACP pistols I already own. Not having a job is thankfully keeping me safe... for now. The Mauser 1914 is one of my favorite pistols in the collection. This thing shoots like a laser beam and it's little brother is no different. Beretta Model 70 "New Puma" I've never been a Beretta fan. I know that's heresy for a lot of collectors, but I've just never been big on them. However this little guy came into my possession about 6 years ago for a steal and it's slowly changing my opinion. The gun operates flawlessly. I have no idea how many rounds were put through it before I got it, but I've probably put a good 200-250 rounds through it with zero issue. Much like my Mauser 1914, this thing shoots with an accuracy that's almost uncanny for the diminutive size of the pistol. Ortgies 7.65mm There's some weird requirement written in the cosmos that says if you collect old pistols you're legally required to have at least one Ortgies in the collection. The Ortgies is certainly an interesting pistol. The gun has a backstrap safety similar to a 1911 and is also striker fired, which wasn't super common for the time period. Given my newfound interest in .25ACP I am currently looking for this pistol's little brother, the Ortgies 6.35mm. Also, if Wikipedia is to be believed, early 20th century gangster John Dillinger supposedly carried an Ortgies OWA VP I recently acquired this one simply because it is a bit of an odd duck. This Austrian made pistol is chambered in 25ACP (6.35mm) and came with a holster. Based on the date code this piece was made in 1922. In fact, despite the guns being made between 1920 and 1925 it seems like every example that pops up was made in 1922. No idea why. I guess 1922 was a good year for Austrian pocket guns. I don't know a ton about this one, so if you're a big OWA pistol collector don't hesitate to drop some knowledge on me With any luck I'll get employed soon and I can go back to building (and in some cases refining) my collection. Then I can do more show and tell! I hope y'all and your families are happy and healthy -noid
