Two new arrivals at CasaKC, a Ruger Bearcat with genuine stag grips. The nice thing about this is that with my oversized paws, I have never been able to grip a Bearcat properly. With the larger stags, it feels great! Also, wound up with a strange day of trading and buying, wound up bringing a new 1866 Yellowboy in .45 Colt home today as well. Now to decide which of three guns will become my Black Powder guns [actually deciding between two calibers as well]

Nice finds, both of them!

If you see an Cometa/Tell 220 air-rifle anywhere, grab it! It's just great, I tell you.

Maybe, a heavier air-rifle can be a little more precise freehand, but the lightweight 2.8 kilogram is more fun.

This is the spanish-made Cometa/Tell 220. The barrel cap is supposed to be a silencer, but I don't know, if it's really needed. Anyways.

-I don't need to mention the fibre glass optics. It works as it should be.
-The good trigger is adjustable in it's drag.
-The shock is very gentle!

Picked this one up today. Scandium frame SW1911 Commander.

I used a Ruger Mini-14 for many years with the Illinois Department of Corrections. Great little rifles. Today I picked up a very clean Mini-30

@John b
Yeah, RWS ist just a brand, today. The always buy from the most lucrative source.

Reading a novel, where the Glock 17 is mentioned. It has a weight of only 22 oz, WTH !!

Yup, the factory site lists it as 22.05 ounces. One of the reasons it became so popular with police departments.

Well, my love affair with the .45 continues. Had a very clean HK USP .45 wander into the shop and it came home with me. Built in 17 according to the date code, sadly both magazines are 10 rounders, that situation will be rectified.

Nice gun!

Nothing wrong with 10 rnd mags especially in a USP .45. I use the low cap mags for range drills.

My Tisas Stingray 11+1 9mm 1911 commander length. Forged slide, Bobbed Alum frame, extended ambi safety, Novak style sights, Brown Beavertail, skeletonized hammer, and G10 grips. Had it for about a year and a half and its been flawless. Ive done nothing but purchase some spare Wilson magazines. I have several "nicer" 1911's, and a couple nice older BHP's, but this little thing is one of my favorite carry pieces. Dollar for dollar the Tisis offerings are really hard to beat.

And my all time favorite 1972 Browning Hi-Power once owned by the writer Skeeter Skelton. Spiegal Grips, Heine sights... hard to improve on near perfection.

 

[DeaconKC]

Definitely a +1 on the Tisas guns, very well made.

And A "Skeeter" gun? Wow, just wow...

This particular pistol is written up in a chapter of one of his books. He gave it to one of his Customs Service partners... I got it from him... Its always had a real warm fuzzy spot in my heart. I had the privledge to sit in Skeeters hotel room drinking George Dickel at the NRA show years back in Seattle. Call me an old school guy lol
