Bought a Smith & Wesson model 34-1 from another member here last week. Adjustable sight, 2" barrel, .22 long rifle. What's not to love? Already put about 100 rounds through it. Wish I'd had this 40 years ago.

Bought my first 94 today. Had the option between a 1957 with a Lyman peep sight in about 80% condition and a 1971 all original in 90% for 150 less. I chose the 1971 model and could not be happier.
A Colt New Army Model of 1901. Pretty excited to be able to shoot 38 Long Colt!

Springfield Emissary. Still in the shipping stream.
I got a Sixties Remington 742 30-06 with 90s plastic trim for 70s money.
And it functions with cast.
This might be fun…..

Built another AR from PSA. This time it has a rail and Vortex glass.
Found a blued Ruger Security Six in about 95% condition. Small chip of paint off the edge of the rear sight. Only issue is somebody glued the grips on. They came off without much trouble and the glue is coming off without any finish issues. Need a set of grips now.
A Century C93 followed me home from the gun show today. I pick up strays all the time.

Bailed out a very nice Savage Axis .308 with wood stock last week. Rushed home to get my scope mounted for a test drive, and discovered that it uses 8-40 screws instead of 6-48, meaning I couldn't put my bases on it.
Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

I found this S&W model 915 on GB recently and managed to get it for less than $400, which I was happy with as it’s an all metal SA/DA 9mm that holds 15 +1. It really feels good in my hand. My first 9mm back in the late 70’s or early 80’s was a M39 Smith, which I used as my EDC piece. Got an extra Mag and a Safariland holster this week. Need to make time to get to the range now.

Pretty sure the 915 was one of the last SA/DA pistols they made, I remember seeing it in their catalog in the mid-2000's. Used to see park rangers at Mammoth Cave carrying them.

Among the last few was a CZ527 in .221 rem FB, a Rossi in .44 mag., a as new Springfield SA-35 and I traded a plated Radom for a new in the box Shadow system DR-920.
Picked this up today with half of it covered by a gift card I won in a raffle from Bass Pro 357 Mag side gate Big Boy with a 3 digit serial number, brand new.
