Thread: Firearms and you: wotcha got?

So the knife thread got me wondering how many people here have guns and what they've got. My collection is small due to the money it takes to get one, but here's what I've got:

Mossberg 500 Persuader 12 gauge- it'll be getting a collapsing pistol grip soon
An antique .410 bolt action shotgun
Hi-Point 9mm

Ruger 10/22 (.22LR) with Choate pistol grip stock, 4x Bushnell scope, see-thru scope mounts & a few 30 round mags
Ruger Mark III bull barrel .22LR target pistol
Remington Wingmaster 870 12 gauge
Springfield Armory .45ACP, with lots of mods including milled low-mounted Bo-mar sights, Wilson single-port comp, trigger, hammer, beavertail & tons of internal work from when I was shooting IPSC
Remington .270 bolt action. I haven't even shot this one yet. Needs a scope. My uncle had a sweet deer hunting spot, but another farmer has the lease on the property now

-Perazzi MX8 skeet (12 gauge) for shooting international skeet
-Benelli Raffaello Crio (12 gauge) for hunting
I was skeet shooter, I am international Judge and international Referee in clay target shooting (I was International Referee in clay target of Athens Olympic Games).

Over a dozen here. everything from replica black powder weapons to modern autoloaders. My only other collecting hobby.

Sig Sauer P228 in 9mm And soon to get a .45 in 1911 type model

I'm not telling. The less that knows, the better.

.357, Colt Army, Single Action Revolver with pure Elephant Ivory, scrimshawed grips (bought in the seventies when you could buy ivory)

I'm not a firearms person. I've been thinking of selling it. I bought it while being compulsive. PAD, Pistol Acuisition Disorder, one time! It was stolen shortly after I bought it. Eight years later it was recovered during a robbery by the Sacramento Police department. I'll bet this gun has some stories to tell.

You don't like your sig? I've always heard they're great guns

Don't get me wrong, I like it, but I much prefer a .40 or .45 They're just ...better....

Don't have one. I'd love one...but it's too much of a hassle to get one here.
