Three friends

Well I thought I would post a couple of pictures of three of my friends. One of them is fairly new. I have other friends but I like these guys because they have never let me down. I will apologize in advance to those of you that treat your watches like jewelery or precious children. I could have cleaned them but...well what you see is what you get mate, sorry. They are all tools to be used, they get dirty, have scratches and life goes on.

Are you going to try to hijack every thread that shows a gun? What about knives? What about baseball bats?
I LIKE ALL THREE FRIENDS. Nice pics BTW.

Just curious, How do you like the HK? I'm looking for a smaller pistol, something smaller than my S&W M&P .40 I've heard wonders about the HK.

Can live without or not allowed to own one? Some people are just jealous because they are not allowed to have them even if they wanted them. Nice watches and pistola by the way. I think I have spent just about the same amount of money in guns and Rolex watches. Maybe someday I'll sell some of my guns and buy more Rolex!

Definitely safer for me and my family with that friend. If you think firearm ownership brings risks to you and your family, then you are not responsible or mature enough to own a firearm. Sorry, my last comment on this subject.

Fact: every year in the u.s. guns take the lives of approx. 7,000 people (this includes good guys and bad guys)

Fact: every year in the u.s. alcohol related accidents claim on average 65,000- 75,000 lives. Are you for banning alcohol?

Do you blame misspelled words on your pen?

Don't blame the tool blame the idiot who misuses it!!!
My point: guns don't kill people... ANYTHING IN THE WRONG HANDS KILLS PEOPLE!
Here is to the right to protect ourselves
