What gun did you buy today?

[SQLGeek]

I have been looking for a Bond Bullpup for quite some time. I finally found one at a great price at the Pasadena gun show today. Unfortunately it was lost in boating accident on the way home.

Ooooh nice. Mind sharing what you paid for it before losing it?

Here's a bunch of pics I took. https://imgur.com/a/IaM9iRy

It's a Service Grade. As far as I can tell both the slide and frame are Ithaca and the frame was manufactured in 1943. It was re-arsenaled at Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) in March 1980. It came with a magazine (see pics).

That's all I know about it, but I would love to hear anything else that anyone here can figure out.

As for the lack of Idiot Scratch, I assume you're talking about the common scratch that people mark when putting back in the slide release lever after a field strip? This is my first 1911, so I've been especially careful when stripping it.

I'm pretty sure he meant that he was surprised it didn't already have one when you got it.

Looks good, I'd be happy with that one.

got a 6" Smith and Wesson 422 since I love the 4" so much! Need to find a 622 now!

Don't you just HATE when that happens.

I love these pistols . . . and they make fantastic suppressor hosts. Here are mine (at least before they went into the lake):

All I can say is.. I don't plan on boating with you guys any time soon... at least not until 2020.. :/

Glad to know someone else appreciates them!

I keep buying them saying I will buy a suppressor but never do...one day! I had a 2213 that I sold and now regret selling.

Alas, I always seem to forget what happens to guns about the time I hear the words "gun control".

I’m shopping for a new boat. I need a bigger one because the one i have now keeps sinking and losing my guns.

I don't even have a boat and I keep losing my guns in boating accidents. Talk about bad luck.

Shooting .22LR suppressed is one of life's special joys. Absolutely brings a smile to my face every single time . . . or would, if I could get those gubs back out of the lake.

Infrequently I come across a gun that I didn't even know existed. Even less frequent that it lights my fire.

This is one of the most unusual AR-15 variants I've come and stumbled onto.

It's actually closer to a SIG MCX in that it has an AR-like upper and lower and piston driven bolt and carrier and takes AR mags but has two SIG-like recoils springs rather than a buffer tube.

It's in .204 Ruger, like I needed another caliber on the shelf.

A Volquartsen Evolution.
Produced 2005 to 2016.
Commercial failure probably because they were too darned costly....and sort of odd, which suits me fine.

That muzzle device, the astute might ascertain, blows forward enhancing recoil.
Actually, that is purportedly to direct the blast away from my ears.
At 11 lbs it's recoil is about on par with a 22 RF Mag. Nada!

The upper and lower are solid all-machined stainless blocks and crazy massive and far too heavy.
Sort of strikes me as a prototype in the way it's fitted and machined, although I have about ~ #600th made.

Best part, after 2.5 boxes of ammo.
It's flawless in function.
It's definitely a sub 1/2 MOA gun.

I just need to find a coyote to cut in half with the 4,225 FPS Hornady Varmint ammo.

Suppressed it sounds about like an unsuppressed 22lr!

That's a Leupold VX-6 3-18x on Badgers that I found crazy cheap at a gun show a year ago and had been gathering dust. Found it a fitting home...

Cool toy.

Looks like if Ruger made it it would be called the 10/204.

Saw this at my LGS and looked it over for a few minutes and brought it.

From 1990 (serial NM) I would say in about 95% condition. One previous owner.

From the looks of it, it appears to be barely shot.

This is my first Browning rifle and even my first 270. i have not decided if I am going to scope it or not.

Fine looking pocket pistolo. Congrats! I nearly bought a bigger Lc9 day before yesterday from a guy on here but the seller was a no show at the appointed place and time and didnt seem prone to want to call or text. Guess he didnt want to sell it that bad cause I had the money in my pocket. lol. Or hey he mighta got a better offer than was the advertised price. Who knows?

Good score.

Feels your pain on that. I lost a bunch of nice guns in a boating accident too. It just dont seem fair.

Just picked up the CZ455 in 22LR and the 17HMR barrel set.

Ordered from Buds on Saturday, arrived at the FFL yesterday.

I've purchased two more third-gen Smiths. A S&W 3913 and a 3914 DAO via gunbroker. Haven't received them yet, so no photos. I predict another maritime disaster . . .
