A 1918 Webley MK VI. Saw service the end of WW1 and WW2, owners father somehow acquired it. Has one arrow signifying it was in the Army but no opposing arrow signifying release for sale by the Army? Cylinder shaved to use 45ACP with moonclips, or 45 Autorim, have moonclips and 45ACP brass but want to find some 45 Autorim brass to load. Any thoughts were to find them?? Just scored a brick of LPP primers. Shipping was high but I have them to use now.

A 1998 Browning 1895 BPCR new in the box. Believe I gave too much for it, but it's mine! In 45-70. I know absolutely nothing about loading black powder. Looks like an old dog will have to learn some new tricks.
Mossberg 42B .22 bolt action to replace my Springfield and to fit in with my mossberg BA .410 and 16ga.
Just bought a Coonan. Can’t say exactly why, but I’ve wanted to try one for a long time even though I’m happy with my revolvers. In general do love a 1911, and 357mag is a great cartridge, so we’ll see.
A 1955 Marlin 336 switch barrel levergun in 38-55 and 7-30 waters. It has a barrel shroud ala Dan Wesson revolvers and barrel inserts in the above calibers. Somebody put a boatload of money in making this thing. Hoping to shoot the 38-55 barrel this weekend as 7-30 waters ammo seems to be hens teeth rare right now.

Been a while, but the last one I bought was a Norwegian Krag - 6.5x55.

The last gun I bought (abouth4 years ago) is probably the LAST gun I will ever buy. Wife said "we need no more"! And ammo and supplies are so expensive to even make ammo, why have a bunch of useless guns lying around? The ones I have all work perfectly and you cannot shoot more than one at a time anyway!
My other hobbies are still alive & active and I can easily buy, trade, and sell items in those venues. No stupid HAZMAT or FFL's required!

Enter the arena of PCP air rifles. Just ordered a Benjamin Marauder .22 with the Lothar barrel

Yes, I have several very accurate air rifles that cost very little to shoot. And I have 4 airsoft hand guns (and one Thompson machine gun) that feel and act and weigh just like the SIG and S&W real guns they are made like. And they use real interchangeable magazines that hold 20 or so rounds. With real blowback action powered by propane (or green) gas, they are fun to shoot and are totally legal in town. The Tommy gun is battery powered............... but is really fun to shoot!!!!!! It has the stick mags and the round canister mag.Originally Posted by snowwolfe
Have fun!
OK, I jus picked up a Smith & Weson M&P Compact with a surpressor barrel AND a bucket list rifle in the form of a Marlin Papoose in .22LR. I'll post pictures when the Papoose arrives.

Its been months since I bought the book, "How to scam people online". It still has not arrived yet!

S&W model 57 and loving it!
Might want to do some research on 45 acp in those old Webleys unless you're rolling your own I remember reading an article online about factory 45 acp causing damage and that the cylinders were shaved for expediency during the war.
Good luck though I have a real yearning to own one of those bad boys.

I got the 24 GPC finished with its suppressor mounted. Got a few more rounds to finish the barrel break in with 80g then will switch to 95s and 100s for distance. If it does right, I will pull the Japan Bushnell cam scope off I guess put the Thor 4 on it for some warm shooting.
