Ruger Mark II 22LR, purchased this gun after talking a bunch with a research professor I worked with @ the University of Florida Physiology Department back in the early 1980’s. I think I paid about $179, put it on layaway and then picked it up the next week. DrFrankenRuger
Baretta 92FS 9mm, purchased this back in the late 1990’s after getting divorced. I think it was around $499 and I got the version with only 10 round clips since I had gotten it from Dick’s Sporting goods who only carried California weapons (don’t buy from a large chain store or this could happen to you), I have since gotten two more 15 round magazines so I do feel better.
Mosin Nagant M91/30 Shoots the 7.62x54R cartridge. (pronouced “Moi-seen”). Purchased this March 10th 2012 out of a box of about 20 guns @ the Gwinnett Fairgrounds Gun Show from Cherokee Gun & Pawn for $99, $107 after taxes and such.Main Page – Russian Mosin Nagant Forum
37 Million made, served in 35 countries, and used in more than 29 wars.
This dude on YouTube has a bunch of Mosin Nagant videos.
Palmetto State Armory AR-15 got this at a Gun Show down in Jonesboro, GA. I plan on changing a bunch of stuff like the grip and putting a handle and rail on it. I got a 4x scope from AIM Sports. Already got 4-30rd composite mags from PMAG, or MAGPull in black. If I get another AR I’ll be decking it out in Dark Earth instead of Black. I’d also like to replace the stock, needs more padding.
Ruger Mark III Hunter 22LR, Ever since I got my Ruger Mark II I wanted a bull barrel one as well. It morphed into a desire for a stainless bull barrel at some time and when I saw one back a week before I purchased this one I decided I HAD to have one. I talked the guy down to $489, $10 less than I’ve seen it anywhere, but after taxes and 3% for a credit card I was up way past the $529 that was it’s sticker price. Whatever, I wanted it and it shoots like a dream.
Bersa Thunder 380 ACP, My dad has the c-carry version of this gun. Brian and I bought the straight version, mine in Nickel and his in duotone in January 2013. I had also gotten my CC Permit started in Dec 2012 but still hadn’t gotten it by mid Jan. Shoots nice but seems to jam a bit, not sure if it’s a problem or just a breaking in period thing. Brian’s doesn’t seem to have an issue.
Knives:
Gil Hibbin – I’ve collected many of his knives in the early part of the 2000’s. Started with the knife used in an episode or two of Star Trek TNG, as a Klingon weapon. I’ve got about 4-6 others that are fantacy knives of some sort along with two Kempo Karate Knives.
Others – Just simple hunting knives and such
Swords:
BudK – a rapier and a odd wavy sword. Then a ninja blade.
