Thank you. Those are the ones 32 caliber and larger. I probably have half a dozen 22 and 25 caliber pistols I have just about as many rifles! I don't collect guns, as I've heard it said, I accumulate them.

Rick, nice guns. I don't know if I would like the recoil on that 2 inch barrel .45 Colt.

John, I'm impressed.

That's a Thunderer. "Birdshead" guns are a smooth curve from point to hammer, while this has a hump at the top of the grip, like a double action. Hard to see the hump in that pic, though. I'm only being picky about this because they also sell birdsheads, as the "Pinkerton", I believe they call it.


The Beretta is a 96.

I don't own any 66s, so that's wrong. If you notice, both of the ones you said were 66 have an underlug barrel, which the 19/66s never had. That first one is a 696, 3" L frame 5-shot 44 special.

The Webley is a Mark VI. The Mark I through Mark V all had the birdshead grip. The VI was the only one with a square butt.

That second "66" is a 625, 45 ACP.

The subgun is a German WW2 MP40. Made by Erma in 1943.

The manual says only FMJ ammo will function 100%. As these weapons use 1911 based magazines I'm experimenting with a bunch of different mags to see which ones may allow JHPs to function 100%. Accuracy at 25' was good with the FMJs. I do like the Cobra Patriot and hope to get it to feed combat ammo. The trigger is getting much better with use and dry firing. A couple neat features with this weapon are as stated earlier it uses 1911 based magazines, the weapon fits in Glock 17/19 holsters.
Thanks I am looking at one now and I like the fit to my hand. All we ever used in the Marines was 230grn ball ammo and It would put a man down quick. Thanks for the reply.

Actually the recoil isnt all that bad but the hard checkered plastic grips get a little tuff on the hands after 50 or so rounds. I just got it back from the Colt Custom Shop from being bobbed from a 3" sheriffs model.

As you can see. I rarely fire my carry gun.

Perfect medium bore and with all these perty gun pics, I figured I would balance it out and put a Glock in there.....

Marlin T, Thanks it sure is amazing what these new little digital cameras can do. I remember being in a camera club when these little cameras began improving and the photographers complaining that soon anyone will be able to take pictures. I think it's great because pictures can sure tell a story alot better than I can. One thing I like better than showing pictures is seeing pictures by others.
