New acquisitions for July 2010

[Mike1911]

OK, here we go!

My new Colt SAA in ALL blue.

Colt SAA, 45LC, 7-1/2" barrel, Single Action Army with FACTORY ORIGINAL WOOD grips, most came with the hard rubber grips.. The vast majority of Colt Single Action revolvers were finished with the case-hardening process. This Colt is finished in all blue. This is an extremely RARE 2nd generation variation of the 7-1/2" barreled 45. It falls outside the range of revolvers in Don Wilkerson's The Post-War Colt Single Action Army Revolvers survey but, Don is careful to say that "Full Blue Revolvers are found in all serial number ranges" but he only found 32 up to serial number range 61000SA. This is a higher number at 623xxSA, manufactured in 1972.

I just picked up my second Sig P220 this morning

I plan to convert it to DAK

 

[daltrey99]

Another P38 to the collection. This one is a very early post war version built in 1958. Flawless mechanics and finish. It came with 2 magazines and a holster from 1962.

single shot in .243

 

[eisenhow]

FINALLY got around to getting my first AR and building up my 2008 NES lower that's been waiting patiently in the safe. Now I just need to find an extra pivot pin detent and spring and she'll be all set to shoot tomorrow.

Went flying never to be found again eh?

It went flying several times, the last time I couldn't find it . I tried using a big plastic bag but I couldn't see what I was doing and didn't have enough hands.

Nice gun but I gotta call foul because there is no way you bought this the morning of 7/1 and had a chance to take pics at 8:32am. I think you bought it in June and wanted first in on the New Acquisitions thread.[bs1]

 

[magoo]

He was in a different time zone or he has a time machine. You never know what people have in there house.

I bought my sig at 8:00 am face to face and was only ten minutes away from home so it isdoable.

You got me. It was bought on 6/30. But heck nobody looks at the previous months acquisitions once the next month starts. I always wanted to be first at something!

Love the Ivory.

I'm glad you didn't post it in June, it'd have taken away from the Russian SKS I bought.

 

[jpdopes]

My new to me Kahr MK9. I got it last month but wanted to wait until I got the wood grips before I posted it. The Holster is made by Garrity Gunleather.

 

[Dirtypacman]

That Kahr is a beauty.

Do you prefer the wood for looks? Or do you actually like wood grips on your CCW, just wondering.. don't see many with wood unless its a revolver.

 

[jpdopes]

Both. I love the looks but I also think these grips feel better than the factory plastic. They're a little thicker but not so much that it affects concealability.

 

[pdm]

Now that's nice.

 

[Hanwei]

Dead. Sexy.

 

[jcliff]

Props on the Kahr. But I will say the holster appears to be finely crafted. Is it comfortable to wear?

Thanks for answering ... enjoy it

 

[jpdopes]

Jcliff, the holster is very comfortable. I have M-Tac and C-Tac holsters that are comfortable but this one beats them in that department.
