Wish me luck my friends, trying to work a trade for a 1917 Colt 1911.

You won't regret it!

My Uncle Joseph, now long gone, would say, "Always put your shotgun on the hood, never on the roof!" He said that every time he took me hunting, and with some verve. One time when I asked why he always said that and with such passion he simply said, "I don't want to talk about it!"

 

[MikePotts]

Ha!

 

[DeaconKC]

Like the baby Sig and would give a great deal to know the story behind Grandpa's escapade!

I plan to be waiting on whitetails come Saturday morning. Carrying my wife's Great-Grandfather's 1946 Winchester Model 70 (.270). Excuse the scope. It was on it when we inherited it (and I really need it).

 

[MikePotts]

Cool old Model 70, always a classic. Speaking of vehicle bonnets, I've seen more than a couple around here with a furrow ploughed into them due to folks forgetting about the 'mechanical offset' twixt 'scope & barrel!

Recent adds are a Mossberg 26B (1936-39) and a 151K (1950-51), both Golden Age .22s. Both still projects, but I will post pics when they are fit to look at.

 

[DeaconKC]

What a beautiful Model 70, timeless elegance. Picked up the 1911 and it is a fine one. Frame seems to have it's original bluing, the slide is a Colt, but a later one. Looks to have been built in September or October of 1917.

 

[MikePotts]

Terrific Deacon, well done!

 

[Renault]

Wow! Super nice stuff posted lately Compadre's!

Nice 1911 Deacon!!!!!

Nuthin' really new here.

The tag said it is a .22 Short, and that's all I know about it. There is no name or serial number on it, only three little stamps on the part that swings out to hold in the round and the same stamps on the right side. Once I saw this I knew I had to have it. Only payed $250 for it. The engravings are really cool and the barrel is pretty thick. Bore has seen better days and I can just make out the hair lines of what looks like use to be rifling. The hammer and trigger spring is pretty strong.
Currently stationed in California. Apparently since it is considered an antique I don't have to wait the mandatory 10 days and it doesn't count as my one pistol every 30 days. The fools! Now I can go use it to hold up the bank down the street! >
Any ideas on what this could be?

 

[MikePotts]

My take is that it's a Belgian "Parlor Pistol" but someone will be along soon to tell me I'm wrong

It is kinda cool lookin'!

 

[DeaconKC]

I had the same thought as MikePotts. What a lovely old pistol!

 

[fabiovenhorst]

Vintage 16 gauge two barrel shotgun. Belonged to my grandpa.

 

[DeaconKC]

Fabio, that is elegant, and a truly well-composed picture, to boot! Who built the shotgun?

My new Sig P238... with Laser sight...380 Auto...sometimes carry gun.

The P238 sitting in front of a couple of 1930's Tube type table radios to give some scale...
