[slow e30]

some of you fuckers are armed... the the freakin TEETH! lol

It's just a hobby, like any other. I like the old stuff for the historical side of them.
I really liked the other items that RH had in the pics with his weapons. Some of the accessories can run a pretty penny as well, and be as challenging to get as some of the E30 parts we chase.

Jesus Rainier I had no idea you were a guns guy at all until just now. Did you bring a couple sidearms to Home Depot just in case I wasn't legit??

Well, the Sig P232 (at the top of my 'handgun' post) pretty much goes where ever I go... don't worry, its not that I didn't trust you, its that I don't trust anyone ;)

Yes it is a hobby like anything else, more of a sickness really. Some of the 'accessories' in the pictures are worth more than the gun in the same picture. Think of it like brand new BBS RSs on a beater eta... but damn, it looks good.

So what were you selling?

A volvo 'is' lip...

[Vedubin01]

[RainierHooker]

^^^^^^^^^^^

Dude you have a great collection there are several you have up there that are on my list of do want.

How you like the p232??? I am thinking about getting one as a pocket mouse gun for those times when I cant carry my 220 due to dress restrictions and what not.

[RainierHooker]

I love the P232. It is a little bull-dog. Small, but not too small and with the right ammo, I have no doubts about its effectiveness in most circumstances. Gold-Dot .380acp is more than capable within 25 yards or so.
I also have a P220 Carry (the middle-sized one) that is my 'winter' carry-gun, you can't really argue with .45 can you?

Huh, can't believe I'm just not stumbling across this thread. Subscribed because I may be in the market for something new soon.

Good to know, I have always kinda shyed away from .380 just because I love .45acp, and would find a way to hide that big bastard. Even when its hot in the summer I can. Its just those dammed times I have to dress up to go to some stupid event when my normal attire is not permitted

And NO you cant argue with .45 LOL

What's wrong with the XD?

I've got one in 45 and it seems like a fine pistol. It's never so much as hiccuped. Actually runs better than my Springfield 1911 does.

[mrsleeve]

I hate the grip on the XD feels like I am holding a fucking brick, that and the uber stiff main spring just kill it for me. Also it fits my hand like shit but mostly the main spring.

Tupperware is for the kitchen, not for the range...

IMHO CZ's dont get the respect they deserve. My next 9mm is going to be a CZ.

Somebody say CZ?

I just picked this up last Monday.


I love it. I shopped around forever and shot a bunch of guns. In the end it was between the Glock 19 and the CZ. I bought the CZ because it feels perfect in my hand. The sights are a little weird but I'll get used to it, and I can't find a holster because the damn model is so new (march release).
