Thanks, that collection of yours would be GREAT to even see much less shoot. I played with this stuff a lot back in the 70's. Ended up with a couple of the old Ruger .44's. When I see what they sell for now kind of wish I had kept at least one of them.
Those Ruger Old Army revolvers were fine indeed.Thanks, that collection of yours would be GREAT to even see much less shoot. I played with this stuff a lot back in the 70's.

On one I had a Smith shorten the barrel to 5". He did such a great job many who saw it thought it came from the factory like that and would ask me where I found it. Ruger must have gotten a lot of comments since they later offered the damn thing like that factory.
Had a replica double 12 Ga for a while. Used to even shoot some clay with it. LOT of people of course would want to try it when they saw me. It would be cool as hell to be able to actually shoot one that was made long before I was born.
If I can get out that way when you are there I will. Be fun to meet you and that collection you take around with you!!!
That kook who killed that leader in Japan a bit ago used some kind of homemade gun. Using powder from fireworks IIRC. Shows its pretty hard to keep people from doing this when they want to. Any of the modern reproductions like this could be made to work with the stuff fireworks are made of very easily. They could be loaded with any kind of gun powder the dobads could lay hands on too. Risky to both the person gun was pointed at and the one holding it but damn things would easily fire.
Yeah, Even my ridiculous self says no to this one. I am not sure it would be fun.
I would hope few buy these to actually use as a tool for anything, defense, hunting and such. They are a big boys toy. Kind of like those hand crank gatteling guns made to shoot 9mm or ones that use two 10/22's together. All are things I would LOVE to play with if someone else bought them. Too much money for me to buy myself. Would be all kinds of fun to play with though if all I had to pay for was ammo
I own some very expensive fun guns that currently are just for fun and investment. Might I use it on Varmints post move? Sure.I would hope few buy these to actually use as a tool for anything, defense, hunting and such. They are a big boys toy.

Certainly NOTHING wrong with that. I have some roll their eye's at some of the stuff I buy. I could care less. Until they start going to work for me they do not get to tell me what I want to play with.
I have 2 MGs. I enjoy shooting them. I have suppressors and SBS's and SBRs that are just for fun. Ironically for hunting I would use my trust Encore. I would definitely consider my SBRs for any home defense duties, but in truth, I really carry revolvers as often as not.Certainly NOTHING wrong with that.

The select fire air rifle I recently bought was a great example. I could and may end up using it to dispatch 4 legged predators but that was just a way to make me feel a little better about how much I paid for it.
Damn gun alone was almost 1K and I have spent many hundred more for it since I got the thing and it is just a big boys toy. Damn fun toy but still a toy. Have had so much fun with it I do not regret buying it and keep looking real hard at another item the same Co makes.
I really miss having select fire guns. Back when I lived where I could I had a couple and they too were a ton of damn fun. Would LOVE to have another M3, was always my hands down favorite. If Wife and I end up moving to a free state I very well may buy myself another one. It would be a toy but what a fun damn toy!
Did you miss the part that these are Black Powder muzzle loaders? Not regulated.
We are talking about the front stuffers that get advertised here a lot. Couple places make them now. In most states you can order one up by mail because they are not a firearm under Fed laws. If you want to make one up like the old Auto Burglar than you have to paper it.
