FR's Gun Club - Friday's Gun Porn

[Shooter 2.5]

This is one of the first installments from Free Republic's Gun Club. It's going to be a daily discussion on subjects covering firearms, Gun Rights and overall firearms experiences.

Some years ago, Friday seemed to be the time to post photos of our favorite toys. I volunteered to make it a weekly occurance.

One of the things I did learn through the years, though. It's not the gun. It's just a tool in the hands of the person who makes it happen. That rusty and pitted .38 revolver may not look like much but to the owner, it may have helped in getting out of a lot of scrapes. Also, that match pistol may look good but it might have been instrumental in losing more matches than the one half it's price and bone stock.

So let's see 'em. The pretty ones, the ugly ones and the dusty ones including the old favorite grampa gave us when he passed on.

I’ll have you know, this is a gun thread. There should be something firearms related in your posts.

I know....I should be ashamed of myself.

BTW, your furry friend was one handsome guy.

I see a couple of nice guns in that picture. There’s also a pistol and a rifle.

Your thread caught my eye this morning. I have a question for everyone posting. Has anyone attended the Gunsmithing program at Trinidad State Jr College?

My son will graduate from High School in 2 years and has his heart set on going there. I have heard it is the best gunsmithing program in the nation. Can anyone confirm that or suggest other colleges?

Thanks in advance for any advise.

"I see a couple of nice guns in that picture. There’s also a pistol and a rifle."

I saw the guns, too...nice pair a' bazookas...and mind you I have no issue with that sort of thing in the proper time and place...I simply stated this is a firearms thread, and I observed nothing firearms related. You seem to think there's a pistol and rifle there somewhere, but frankly, I hadn't noticed them.

[andy58-in-nh]

Well, now that you mention it: I realize I'm getting older because I actually noticed the firearms.

Are those evil hi-cap magazines for your evil plastic gun that can’t be seen in a metal detector?

(I hope I don’t need /s)

[wastedyears]

Evil, man

"I actually noticed the firearms."

I still have no earthly idea what firearms you're talking about :-P

[andy58-in-nh]

Surely, you can spot the attractive piece in this picture...

[wastedyears]

I see a blond wrapped up in chainmail.

There’s supposed to be a gun?

[SJSAMPLE]

All fourteen of them ;)

"Surely, you can spot the attractive piece in this picture..."

Can't miss her ;-)

I like the N-Frames too.

A nice 3-inch Mdl 13 in 357...the last of the FBI issued revolvers.

2-inch Mdl 64

Colt Gov't 380

And a custom Colt Commander.

I love the K-Frame snubbs, 3" and under. I've got two 3" N frames also, a 24 and a 29, love those 44s!

The .475 Redhawk weighs half of the smallest S&W 500 revolver. That'll let you get an idea of how much recoil we're talking about here.

Joe. This one has taken a 900lb Alaskan Brown.

[P8riot]

Where’s the gun? .......... oh yeah......... I’ve always liked the CZ girls.
