Bleeding edge technology when you are looking for stolen Stinger missiles in Lebanon… :)

A few years ago, I came upon a Colt SAA that had been engraved at the factory with the original box and a letter from Colt. It has been a resident safe queen every since.

Picked up an OG Isreali Micro Uzi today!

Always had been on my wish list, but finally found an almost perfect potentially unfired example for a very good price. Came with full box/matching papers/warranty card etc. What a cool piece of history and pop culture!

Do you have the Chuck Norris Invasion USA shoulder holsters? :)

Haha! Believe it or not, but I actually DO have the Desantis DSD shoulder holster rig for the full size uzi. I agree though, i need the leather Chuck Norris rig to complete the pair ;-)
 



My new to me Northwest Tradegun.

When I got it , it was a rusty , neglected mess.....cleaned up pretty good I think.
( A nice Saturday project :D )
The bore is nice...needs a little more work....some stubborn powder residue
No pits however...yay.
The lock works nicely...and sparks well.
I replaced the very period correct ramrod ( for 1970 something :D ) with a proper historic ramrod...
A simple....plain...hickory stick.
I will replace lock bolts and butt plate screws with proper ones.

No makers marks on the gun at all.
It does have a "Circle Fox" stamp on the barrel near the breech...which is proper for a historic Tradegun...
However...you can buy those nowadays....so no help with who made this gun.
It is a 12 gauge , which ain't historically correct...Tradeguns were in 24 - 28 gauge ...as general rule.
The stock is maple...which also ain't historically correct...it should be walnut.
The lock is a 1960's - 70's replica made in Italy...these were marked : "LOTT"....and were very popular at one time.
A decent lock...and looks historically correct for many flintlock firearms.

The Serpent Sideplate and large iron trigger guard are stereotypical Northwest Tradegun features.

All that said....the overall lines of the gun , styling and shape...is very correct.
This will make for a nice shooting and hunting gun.
