What is the last handgun you bought?

[snowwolfe]

In the rifle section there is a thread "What is the last gun you bought?" Members will often post their handgun purchases in the rifle section.
So, why not have a section for handguns?

I'll go first. Last week I picked up a new S&W 63 with a 3 inch barrel and a S&W 629 Deluxe with a 6.5 inch barrel.

Ordered a Sig P365 TacPac last night from a place in Texas. Comes with three of the 12-round mags and a holster for $50 more than the standard P365. The 10-round mag with finger extension felt good, but the slightly longer 12-round mag felt perfect. 12-rounds of a cartridge that is proven to be effective in essentially a pocket-sized pistol is hard to resist.

[Kimber1911]

Well I have never owned a Glock so I thought what the heck, the 43 is pretty nice, so I bought it. I think I may have screwed that one up because now that I have seen the Sig 365 I need one of those!

[Bazoo]

A Ruger super blackhawk with 4 5/8 barrel, about 4 years ago. It's given me trouble with leading ever since. Still pondering it. I gave 500 for it. I inquired about selling it to the shop I normally deal with and they offered 350. They said nobody shoots big bores round here and it's a hard sell. Been a burr in my backside for a while now and guess it'll continue.

Ruger .44's are notorious for having oversize bores. You want leading? Tight chambers, oversize bores and overly hard bullets are almost a perfect recipe. In a perfect world, the chamber throats in the cylinder would be a thousandth or two bigger than the bore and bullets about the same fit in the chambers. How does your revolver stack up?

[jumbeaux]

Well I am retired and of modest means so it has been awhile since I bought anything firearms related. However, my dear Son recently presented me with a brand spanking new Glock Model 43 9mm...haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but he has plans to take the old man out for a range session very soon. Got to admit his generosity made my eyes water.

My throats are .433 and my bore .429 but it's got a tight spot at the threads. I sent it back to Ruger but they didn't address that, only recut the forcing cone. I plan to send it back again.

Most recent was a Springfield 911 for my Wife. She wanted something to carry that was lighter and more slender than the S&W M-60 that She has had for years.
Before that I got a bargain on a Ruger Super Redhawk in 44 magnum. It wasn't really on my want list but it shoots really well.

It's very unlikely that Ruger will do anything to remedy the thread choking. That's very common in factory revolvers. Best option is to fire lap it. Fermin Garza does a great rundown on properly fire lapping a revolver. Here's a link to his article.

Thanks mart.

You're welcome. I've done a few of mine and will do more again soon. It has never failed to improved the accuracy of the revolver for me. Sometimes quite a bit, sometime just a little.

Last May, I picked up this Smith Model 18-3 in .22 LR in almost new condition. Beautifully accurate, it's really tight, as many Smith .22's are and I have to keep the chambers very clean to make ejection easy. It's fully as accurate from rest as my Smith Model 41 of 1977 vintage and a fine understudy for DA work with my M19's and 66's. Best Regards, Rod

[JonB_in_Glencoe]

It's been a while...maybe a couple years since I bought one...it was a RIA 1911 in 38 super.
and sadly it sat in the gun safe until a month ago, when I finally started to load up some ammo for it.
The NOE 358-128-SWC (it looks more like a TC) pushed with a charge of Win 540.
I had it out to the range a few weeks ago..I fired 50 rds and only had one FTF, I put that same round back in the mag a couple more times and each time it wouldn't fully feed, I could not physically see the problem, so I just chucked that round.

I never liked the factory grips, so I sniped these off fleabay for $12
They didn't fit perfect, I had to get out a couple of hand files and do a little fitt'n to make 'em work.

I took this photo after I got it...those boolits are 135gr Ranch Dog. I haven't loaded any for this and probably won't.

[Green Frog]

A little over a year ago I acquired a NOS barrel for a K-32. Being impatient, I bought both a Model 14-3 and a 15-? While waiting for it to arrive. Since the profile for the 14 was what I needed, the 15 was sold to a member of this forum and my “newest” revolver is a recreated Model 16-3 built just like the factory sometimes did back then by altering an existing Model 14. I didn’t have the proper SB grips with square edge bottoms, so the grips are Roper style from Altamont. I think it came out pretty nice. BTW, the muzzle isn’t worn shiny, I just couldn’t eliminate the glare from the overhead light. :?

Now that is NICE. I knew they made them but I had no interest in 32's back then. Times change and I'm currently in a 32 stage and they're hens teeth. I bet recoil is horrendous.

[Green Frog]

If I had kept the 6" Model 16-4 I ordered about the day they were announced, I would probably have two fewer custom guns today. Truth to tell though, I'm glad I got the stainless 327 built when I did, and really like the class of my recreated Model 16-3 mentioned above. I can't help but wish I had kept that 16-4, but then again, you can't have them all, can you? :???:

If you can look past the holster wear and slight rust on the back strap, apparently from being used as a hand rest.

Hi...
I bought a Uberti 1875 Remington clone in .45Colt on Friday.
Blued steel, case hardened frame with a 7-1/2" barrel.
Paid $299 plus tax.
I thought it was a good deal.

[JM7.7x58]

Well I have been reading about how you all love your .32 cal pistols. I’ve been looking at a few. A .327 mag revolver was out of my price range. Many things I want to buy are out of my price range. So I had accepted the fact that no .32 cal pistol was in my near future.

Then wouldn’t you know, I was given a MidwayUSA gift certificate for Christmas. When I first received it I thought great I can buy a few thousand primers and a few pounds of powder. So I started putting an order together. I was gonna match the gift certificate and double my order. Then I noticed that they were selling Italian Police surplus Beretta 81 pistols for $219, and I could get one for around the price of my powder and primer order. All bets were off I was gonna get a .32 ACP. It ain’t a .327 Magnum, but it should be plenty fun anyways. I Filled out the transfer paperwork on Saturday. I’ll have it in ten days or less.

I have the Lee 93 grain mold for 30-06 plinking. I hear that it is a little to heavy and long for 32 ACP. Looks like a new mold is my next purchase.

They had to kill this one bear because it was getting too aggressive. The bear was shot with a .30-‘06, the shooter jerked the shot. The bear took off and everyone chased it. My buddy got up front and turned to point out where the bear was only to find himself alone facing the wounded bear. He popped the bear in the ear with six boolits and saw its eyes roll.

Here's my latest, a fingergun that has some growing to do to become a handgun.

[El Greco]

SIG P226 LEGION for$750 almost brand new. It came with 4 mags. Original price tag showed $1299. Now my other P226 has a little brother to keep him company.

[Blazenet]

Beretta 92 Inox 9mm

[GhostHawk]

Classic Firearms had a shipment of Bond Arms guns in. I chose a 4" barrel "Earl" in .22mag.

Half a pound empty. Fixed sights but they work reasonably well.

At 20 feet they were all on the paper but tended to spread a fair amount.
At 10 feet I got decent groups, holes touching the previous shot hole, etc.

All in all for around 300$ I'm happy. I have another lighter weight option to carry if I feel the need.

Reloading is not fast, only 5 shots. Still for what it is, it appears well made, solid. Easy enough to learn to shoot it reasonably well at close range.

In other words I'm happy.

It is not my best shooting/grouping small pistol. But it has advantages of light weight, small size, fairly good trigger. And it goes bang when I pull the trigger.

A lot of people don't like the price of .22mag but I think a lot depends on what you compare it against.

Vs .22lr yes it is expensie.
Vs a shotgun shell for killing a varmint around the house it is IMO a wash. But will commonly run in the 24 to 30 cents per round average.

If you compare it to a higher powered rifle it can often be 3-4 times cheaper per round. In the right gun and situation it is capable of doing the same job.

So it all depends on what you compare it to.

YMMV

I very seldom purchase a new manufacture handgun but I could not let this one pass.
Freedom Arms Model 97 in 327 Federal mag. with a 7.5" barrel and micarta grips, it also has a factory action job.
My favorite load is a 98 gn dewc with 2.5 gn of HP-38. This load clocks around 820fps and will group about the size of a quarter @ 25 yards. I have shot 6 factory rounds just to experience that, but that's all I cared for.

Just picked up my 6.5" S&W model 24-3 today. Looks like it was hardly fired. Good timing and lock up. Cylinder throats are about .432" so it is near perfect for as cast with both my .44 molds. It has the appearance of a model 27 on steroids. All up it cost about what a new 29 classic does. Feels like a lucky find.

Sig P365XL and a Hidden Hybrid IWB holster for it. I don't like sub-compacts, because all my fingers never fit on the grip without an extended mag, but the XL has a long enough grip that I have good, positive control even with the mag out. Stock tritium sights. And it shoots like a Sig.

It's small and light, 12+1 in a standard mag, and conceals easily in shorts and a t-shirt (with a decent belt).

Also, if I feel like getting all tacticool with it, they come pre-cut for the Sig Romeo Zero red dot. Two set screws to swap out the rear sights for the RDS. And I think it'll still fit in my holster.

Even with a 3.7" barrel I hit 49 out of 50 in the 9 ring first try without breaking a sweat at 15 yards. That'll do.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200914/7303d09f04e373ed3996e8dcae7cf500.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200914/2dbde72097046759c0bb9576b744f256.jpg

Not sure why I waited so long to get one of these. 3 rounds at 15 yds. offhand was enough to tell it's a shooter! Only shot 3 times because all I had with me was expensive hollow points. Drifted the rear sight to the right a smidge when I got home. This was a used gun at my local store. Mag and holster coming for it today.

Every one I've shot has been an absolutely great shooter, consistent, very smooth action, feeds reliably; basically everything you want in a firearm. One if my kids has one in .40S&W and it easily rivaled my Sig P226 on target.

Unfortunately, when I'm buying I'm not shooting, so I'm only thinking about the field strip, the look, etc.

CZ got the three important things right; Inherent accuracy, ergonomics and a decent trigger. Needing a bludgeon to tap out the slide stop is different but in an emergency I would just use the magazine base plate. I like the lines of a 1911 better but something this easy to shoot well cannot be discounted imho because of it's form, which I find pleasing enough. Pretty good buy at $579.

Hi...
I picked up off of layaway a new to me Monson Dan Wesson blued .41Magnum with an 8-3/8" barrel this past weekend.

Put about 100 rounds through it on Sunday between my son and myself. Had to make a couple of adjustments to the rear sight and it rings steel plates at 25yds consistently.
Switched over to breaking big rocks up into little rocks on the 25yd handgun range berm.
Great fun...

I did not need another .41Magnum and I didn't need another Dan Wesson but then again when did need ever enter into the discussion.

I bought a Beretta M-51 for laughs and giggles. The sights are pretty poor, the safety is weird and it has an odd magazine release, but it goes bang every time.

[gnoahhh]

I bought a couple over the last month. A 1949-vintage K-38 6" that has about the slickest buttery action and trigger I ever saw on a Smith. To go with it I couldn't resist a 1952-vintage K-22 that's almost as sweet. They both shoot like young rifles.

In addition, a 1932-vintage 6" Woodsman in about 95% condition tempted me into submission. Life is good.

[Jedman]

A couple of weeks ago I stopped in to a local gun store that I have bought a lot of guns from and they just got in 5 USFA single action revolvers that were all NIB never fired . Being I am not really a handgun enthusiast I looked at them and could see they were quality made and being made in the USA made me want to know more about them. Later that evening I looked them up and found that they are a very hi quality copy’s of a Colt SAA and built at the old Colt plant in Hartford, CT. The prices on them was very good and my plan was to go back the next day and buy them all and just hold on to them a while. Well I play golf on a league and we had a early tee time and as soon as I was done I hurried to the gun shop as I thought they wouldn’t be there long and I was right,�� the hard to find models were already gone and all that was left was 2 USFA Rodeo models in 44-40 so I bought them both.
I wount say what I paid for them but it was about 1/3 what I see them selling for on Gunbroker as any of them I have watched have sold like hotcakes and that is for used guns and these are NIB never fired with all original papers etc. and the caliber 44-40 was a $ 150 option.
I bought these only as a investment as I will never shoot them but they are real prurdy.
I didn’t take any pics of them so I guess they don’t exist which is the way I prefer to keep them.

[pattern14]

Picked up my last handgun about March this year- it's a Belgian manufactured 455 Webley @1890 vintage. Hard to tell you more detail because the markings are so obscure. While mechanically perfect ( it kind of looks handmade and very well finished ) I initially had all kinds of hassles trying to get it to shoot consistently. It must have the worst sights ever fitted to a revolver; fixed, really small and fine, and difficult to get a proper sight picture. I guess it only had to shoot minute of Zulu or something at point blank range, but the potential was there.

Originally chambered for the MK 1 cartridge, I can only get the shorter Mk 2 cases, and black powder is not commercially sold in Tasmania at present ( ??? ). Couldn't find a .455 mold anywhere, but reloading dies made by the Australian company Simplex are still readily available. Ended up getting a two cavity Lee mold listed as .456 calibre from one distributor, and started experimenting. By the way, a 45 long colt bullet will drop down to the brass case when inserted in the muzzle. It still has good rifling, and the cylinder locks up nearly as tight as my GP100, plus the trigger is very crisp and light on single stage.

First attempts were woeful, then I turned the projectiles back to front, drilled holes to replicate the original "manstopper " round, played with the seating depth, and it shoots really well for such an old pistol. Only using 3 grains of trailboss behind the customised bullet, and it hits with a substantial thump. Lots of fun....just have to figure my way around those sights without destroying the collector value.....

[one-eyed fat man]

Not really one for shooting, but certainly an American icon. Best I can figure, based on the "REMINGTON ARMS CO, ILION NY" marking on the top rib it's a Third model, 2nd variation, made some time between 1888 and 1911. I don't know when or how it came to be in Letcher county in eastern Kentucky. Someone cared for it. It has been spared the ravages of black powder and corrosive primers. The hinges are not cracked, as they often are. The style of the partial box of Remington ammo came with it dates to early Thirties. Makes you wonder where the missing rounds went...into a stump or a chump? Half the fun of finding an old gun hidden in old furniture is wondering how it came to be there and what tales it could tell.

PS I intend to mostly shoot .22mag in it. Convertable is a cool idea but barrel that works for .22mag is too large for good accuracy in .22lr IMO.

[GhostHawk]

Well I let my daughter who was moving down to North Carolina talk me out of my old Heritage Rough Rider in .22lr/.22mag.

Took me 20 years to figure out that the gun vastly prefered .22mags and would shoot nice tight bottom of pop can groups at 20 feet. Well after 3 weeks of missing that gun, I got an email notification that BudsGunshop had the 6 5/8ths in barrel model with adjustable sights in stock. I did not waste any time. Cost 60$ more for the sights vs the notch in the frame plain jane model.

Well I made it to the range with it yesterday. First 5 bullets were all in the 2" stick on bull at 20 feet.
Next 5 I shot a little faster and a couple were just on the edge. And then I put the .22lr cylinder in and it did just as well as the .22mags.

So happy I am, I have a 6" barrel single action back in .22mag for whatever needs doing. Be it woods walking, camping, plinking or varmints. Quality control was excellent IMO for a 230$ pistol. And I see that buds is sold out of them already.

Snagged a RIA Ultra FS 1911 on gunbrokers. Previously owned several high end 1911’s but was always concerned about scratching them. Wanted a reliable and “inexpensive” 1911 that had decent sights and trigger. This one will ride in the boat or ATV or sit on a table in the garage until it’s needed. The slide is dovetailed so changing the front or rear sights should be easy.

A good friend gave me a p365. It shoots really well.

I also have one of these Colt retro 1911s [bought new] and it is a beautiful 1911 but be warned-wear gloves when you tear it down. Mine has cut me several times since I’ve bought it. I do shoot it and naturally clean it and it has the sharpest edges and corners. I don’t understand it as my other 1911s don’t have them. My grips were very mismatched so I contacted Colt and they sent me a better set.

Just picked up a S&W M&P Shield in 40 S&W. My son got the same only in 45cal, all with about 250 rd's each of ammo. At a good deal to boot.

Nice!

I love the lighting on that picture. Completely accidental, but it turned out great.
