Gun Thread (no babies)

This is not a "Show me your Machine Gun" thread

It's also not for you sissies with your plastic handled, slap in a clip autos...

This is for Steel and Wood/Pearl and rotating parts....you know, real guns..and Rolex Watches..

Gentleman stuff.. Even a well detailed Ithaca 12 gauge or the like is welcome... Whatcha' got..




You know, you don't have to open this thread...Ranters, whiners, and show-offs will be cut off at the knees..

I only have airsoft pistols so I don't count. How about C02 pistols?

Remember I'm from Canada, guns are hard to get here

You know your air pistol can't have a muzzle velocity over 500 fps....even if it's shooten' peas..

But you can own a well tooled skeet gun......

I only ever owned a water pistol.

Gun ownership is on the up in the UK though. Trouble is they are all owned by the criminal fraternity.

Gun related killings in the UK up 100% year on year.

Tomorrow I might get a visit from a buddy with a decent camera. If he shows, I'll hook you up with some shots of a 687EELL, a couple of Pythons, and maybe a Match Target Woodsman, and a Model 41 with some Rolexes draped about

Great thread! I'm looking forward to seeing what we all dredge up. I'll bring out the steel and wood tomorrow.

Great photos, buys!

Do we really need so many gun threads, guys?

I thought we already had one multi-page thread on the same subject floating around somewhere!!

Don't get me wrong, though....I love guns, but could never own one in this country!!

we've all heard "if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all". How about, "if you are scared or offended by guns just dont post and let the rest of us who do enjoy the pics."

Don't get me wrong, Chris. I do enjoy the pics and the weaponry....just that we've already got a similar, multi-page thread done very recently on TRF.

Cheers - JJ
