...but cannot decide which one.  I'm a revolver guy, since I'm old school, and have thus narrowed it down to three particular Smith & Wesson's.





S&W Model 66.  .357 Magnum six shooter. 4 1/4" barrel half-lug.  This one would probably be the most 'practical' in use at the range.

S&W Model 629.  .44 Magnum six shooter.  6" barrel half-lug.  'Go big or go home,' with classic lines that I like.

Then again, if one wants the 629, why not go completely 'Dirty Harry,' and get the Model 29?  .44 Magnum six shooter.  6 1/2" barrel half-lug.

Hmm not too familiar with guns, more of an archery guy here, but the first one with a matte silver finish looks pretty nice.

I´ll just stick to my licensed assault-rifle.

WTF do you want one of them for?

To hold and to caress, and also the occasional trip to the range, to bust some caps.

They are beautiful.

I've owned handguns before, but ended up selling them to a friend, as I just wasn't going to the range very often.  Now I'm getting the itch again.



I'd also like a 1911 style .45 Auto.  There are many to choose from, however.

The Colt Series 70 Government Model is something I've had my eye on for some time also, but as I said, there's quite a selection of 1911 style pistols...

I'm too mentally sound to even think about doing such things...  The world has tried to break me from day one, but has been unable to do so.

Whenever I get pissed off, I´m thinking of hacking certain people to pieces with an axe..



Thats just normal when dealing with unreasonable people.

For those people, I hope that society will eventually end up giving them what they deserve!

I'd also like a Luger P08 from WWII, but unfortunately most of them were made with a barrel under 4.25" in length, which makes them impossible to own in Canada, unless you're Grandfathered or as classified as a collector.



It's replacement, the Walther P38, would be no problem to own here.  That might be something nice to own, finding a good condition P38 from WWII...

How do you get classified as a collector?





Luger with documents of previous owners...



The amount of jews killed with the pistol is gonna drive the price up.

Quote from: "Odinson"How do you get classified as a collector?


"To be able to possess or acquire a restricted or prohibited firearm for collection purposes, individuals need to know the historical, scientific and technical features of the firearm. The Chief Firearms Officer (CFO) of the applicable province or territory is responsible for deciding whether individuals are eligible to have the firearm for a collection when they apply to register it."
