What gun did you buy today?

Won a Gunbroker auction for this SA 1911 last week and finally picked it up from my FFL. Those ugly grips and full length guide rod have to go.


Bring on the fudd jokes!

The modern moonpies aren’t very good.
They cheaped out on ingredients. Like everywhere else.
The orange ones were my fave.

I forgot all about the orange ones.

I’ve got an old Model 11-48. Over 70 years old and still running like a champ!

I’ve got the exact one. Changed grips right away. One of the most accurate guns I have.

This.

A thousand times this.

I used to treat myself to a box on occasion. It's been years since I've done that. The Moonpies of my youth were quite thick, with lots of lusciously high quality marshmallow filling between graham crackers that were about perfect, slightly thick and tasting fresh-made, with perfect texture. The chocolate they were dipped in was of at least reasonable quality.

Now there's a thin layer of nondescript white stuff in between two round things made of cardboard, all coated in a waxy, reject-quality dark paint that the box claims is chocolate.

It's enough to make an old man cry.

Found this 10mm long slide Glock 40 MOS former range rental on sale for $450. Had to buy it at that price. Apparently the customers weren’t too into shooting a 10mm gun and it didn’t get much use, and it shows. Hardly a wear ring on the barrel.

3 inch arrived today..............

Seems I’ve only been posting pictures of Glocks lately but I’ve been finding some deals.

Scooped this 34 today (bottom one) for $450, same price as the 40 MOS. The barrel looks unfired, some faint holster wear on slide. I think it’s a PD trade in.

A tattered old blue box followed me home today.

So? What’s in the box?

An old cleaning cloth?!?!?

Oh wait. There is something else.

By gorsh it’s a S&W Model 41.
Born late ‘72/early ‘73.
Really had to dig into the trade bait pile to get this one.
Poor thing was filthy inside. Like 40yr old dried grease inside dirty.
No matter. She’s clean now and ready to go.

That old cleaning cloth, if it was in there all along, may have done a good deal of rust prevention for that beauty. It was probably impregnated with silicone. Nice pistol.

Well, I finally received these two that I bid on back on April 22nd. They arrived yesterday, had been slated by UPSPS to be delivered last Tuesday but then seemed to have gotten lost in transit. No one at USPS could say where they were once they left the post office facility in Rochester, NY - they just kept telling me they were in transit but they opened an investigation none the less. I figured they had been stolen based upon a past experience but luckily for me they really were still in transit and as I said were delivered yesterday to my FFL. I guess it should not have been surprising that a few hours after the USPS sent me the delivery notice, they sent another notice to me telling me they were still in transit and would be delivered by 5:15PM; they actually had been delivered at around 1100AM. Frigging post office is amazingly inefficient but then it is part of the gooberment.

The Savage/Stevens Model 94C Hammered, such a deal at $96.05 including buyer's premium. I have not gotten a deal as good as this one in at least a couple of, or maybe even a few, years.

The revolver is in excellent little fired condition, like new more or less. It has a slight cyliner ring on the 22LR cylinder and none of the 22WMR cylinder. The shotgun is pretty darned good for a pre 64 single shot economy gun. Lots, almost all I guess, of the case color remains. The barrel has some bluing missing in one spot, the enamel (my guess it that is what they used on it) on the rigger guard could use refinishing and there are small spots of worn or scuffed finish on the foregrip. Otherwise it is nice. I paid about top dollar for it but I am happy with that because it is very nice. Took a chance on it because this time I did not get condition appraisals from the auction house before bidding.

My son received the Glock 41 last Monday. Go figure. He said it looks brand new (except for the sights which I think are aftermarket). He is quite happy with it and I cannot fault him on that since it cost him only $452 including the premium.

Who said good deals cannot be found!
