When you were younger, what guns did you like?
9thMarines replied to Malice4you's topic in Firearm Hobby / Sport Discussion
Back when I was in my early twenties (in the very early 60's) I really dug some of the German WWII weapons. Did finally get a Luger,a P-38 and a Schemiser MP40. Regrettably all long gone. Would still like to get a M1918 Browning B.A.R. This was my baby in the service. It was just sooo John Wayne. Being 83 I'm not sure I could lift it now.... but thats what the sling was for, right! Agree with the praise for the Model 19. My 19-3 is my oldest and most reliable revolver. Gotta keep dreaming.... -
Modifying magazines to 10 round capacity

Was never really good at math but.... My HiPower goes from 13 rounds to 10 = (-3)... But if I buy 10 rounds mags for my Springfield Loaded 1911 = +3 Am I even???? (sarcasm -On)- 165 replies

Just bought a new pistola at RTSP around 1:30 this afternoon. Rec'd e-mail from RTSP at 3:30 that NICs cleared. Looks like they are back up.

Similar experience. I'm in my 80's and worked for over forty years at Newark Airport, so my hearing wasn't great,but not too bad. About 3 years ago I was at a trap range and the instructor was saying something to me and I couldn't make out what it was. At that time I was using my old airline ear muffs which worked pretty good.. So I broke the seal on the left earpiece and one or two shots went off next to me. I didn't notice anything wrong til the next day. Had the ringing (tinitus) and it sounded like people were mumbling and I had difficulty making out what they were saying.. The ringing was moderately bad and it lasted for about three months and then finally went away. So, if you aren't having trouble understanding what people are saying, you should be all right. Unfortunately for me I still have trouble making out what some people are saying. Apparently, I blew out all those fine little hairs in my left ear, so if people aren't speaking clearly,or mumbling or swallowing their words I usually get one word out of three. Had to get hearing aids but they are mostly just amplifiers and really don't help with speech clarity, no matter what anyone says.. All the best... Sounds like you should be OK Kenny

Just two guns for the rest of your life

Will have to defer to God, AKA John Moses Browning . Want my B.A. R back. (May not be able lift it 60 years later but that what the bi-pod is for.) and my 1911. -
Old Dog, Thank you for your service should really be Thank you for the sacrifice you made for our country. A belated but hearty "welcome home". and you have more friends than you know. Wishing you all the best.

That was tough----blowing out those 242 candles on the cake. Semper Fi

Hi Griz, Saw a note about the firing pin. Good catch. Will check it out, just out of curiosity. As this is just going to be a range toy to play around with, it won't be carried loaded. Hope to get to the range sometime next week to check it out. It does fit my hand so nicely. All the best, Kenny

Any time, John. All the best, Kenny

Hi John, The Sig is nice....but... being an old fart on a budget, just couldn't pass this up for $150 plus NICS.. And... I just love the old stuff... Guns,cars,etc. All the best, Kenny

Be interested to know if anyone has had any experience with this neat little pistol. Apparently F.I. was going to make these for Colt as the Colt Pony but the deal fell thru. They still have the CPA serial number prefix (Colt Pony..) Wanted a little .380 but didn't care for anything out there. Too big, too small, too plasticky, or too expensive..etc Found this little guy. A scaled down 1911. (my favorite format) Real metal!!..
