Anybody get anything cool that is gun-related today?

Not a gun but it is weapon related so...my pal surjimmy gave me this cool knife for my birthday; miniature replica handle of a U. S. Marine Officer’s Sword with a cool engraved blade. The blade is about 3”.

You might hurt yourself with that, I’ll pm you my mailing address and take it off your hands.

Yeah, wife says I should be careful around sharp, pointed things.

Thank you. I’ll give it a shot. I used Browning Target ammo but don’t know the grain. It was $25 for 100 rounds.

Walmart has some Win 124 Gr Nato right now for 150 rds for like $27. That's pretty good stuff, as target ammo goes, a bit more powerful than standard but not quite +P. Go getcha some of that, or if they are out, any 124 gr load and see how she shoots then. Academy has some Fiocchi 124 Gr too, and IMO, it's a fairly warm FMJ load too.

I have 625 I really like. At one time I thought about having the cylinder cut to allow me to shoot .45 ACP also, but never could bring myself to do it.

Had to quote this one so I could like it 10x instead of once.

Yeah, you need to stay away from sharp, pointy things! You been letting people use them on you way too much!

So, I was coming back from SCI Bixby yesterday, after getting my hands on a Taurus G3 for the first (but not the last) time and picking up a box of Sig 365 hollowpoints for testing. I almost passed by Tulsa County Pawn but remembered that I wanted to see what digital cameras they may have had--I'm looking to get a Panasonice mirrorless camera. I go in but all they have is a Canon camera, so I go over to the firearms display to see what handguns they have--nothing spectacular, but then I notice something in the tiny forest of magazines on the bottom shelf. There are two magazines sitting side-by-side. Both are somewhat stubby but have a witness hole for 12 rounds and yellow followers. I asked the guy behind the counter if I could look at one. He brought out both of them.

Inspecting the magazines, I noticed that they both are stamped "Made in Brazil." The only difference I noticed was a sandpaper-like patch of stippling that resembles the grip on my G2c but that isn't on my magazines. Looking at the magazines, I asked the guy, "I wonder if these will work in my Taurus?"

"I'd be willing to bet they do," he replied.

I retorted, "But would you be willing to bed $14.99?"

"How about $20 for both?"

What could I say? "Sold!"

So, for just a bit more than the price of a new G2c magazine ($31.99,) I picked up two magazines and 20 rounds of self defense ammunition. Black Friday came early for me!

21 years ago, I got in Law Enforcement. My old man, bought me a "THE" wallet, Benchmade Osborn and a German triple serial #'d TT Sig P228 KF date code. Lost the knife, still have the wallet, but I had to sell the Sig when Dad got sick. Told myself I would get one again someday.

Did that yesterday afternoon. I had to get into it kinda steep, but I landed one. Not original box, mags or grips, but triple matching #'s TT in good shape.

I got a new ( unfired )one of these today. It came with the Doctor Optic red dot sight and one mag. Do you think $1400 was a good price ?

I'd love to have one in 45 colt to go with my 45 acp.
