    Show us your Guns!

    I just took his word for it. They didn't have any 357 maximum ammo in stock when I bought the gun. I couldn't find it in any of the gun stores locally. I found a guy that sold reloads and he had a stash of the 357 maximums and I bought 200 rds. from him.

    All that can be shot in it is the 357 maximum ammo. The gun store where I bought it said another customer tried shooting 357 magnum in one and it caused the cylinder to explode.

    This is one of the most accurate handguns I've ever shot but finding ammo for it is a real challenge. It's my Dan Wesson SuperMag in 357 maximum caliber. I placed a 357 magnum cartridge beside the 357 maximum cartridge to show the differences.

    I don't know Inkstained. I bought it from an old guy that had retired from the DNR about 10 years ago.

    My Colt 1911. I looked up the serial number on the Colt website and it was made in 1918.

    I found this 38 in a pawn shop a couple of months ago and just couldn't live without it.

    Men rings - How to choose? What do you wear?

    I've got a few but this one is my favorite. I had this custom made by a jeweler back in the mid 70's. It's 14k with two 1/4 carat diamonds.

    A couple more. First one is a 1920's Trojan with a 6 jewel American Standard movement. And a 1930's Fontain with a 15 jewel movement stamped Sorority. Fontain and Sorority were brands put out by Helbros.

    A Wittnauer today. It has a 17 jewel 9WN movement. I'm guessing on this one that it's from the early 1950's.

    Cowboy Boots

    Hi Paololital. I would recommend you take a look at Lucheese boots. They are hand made in El Paso, Texas and are durable and comfortable. Do a google search and you can find their website.

    I like my Rocket Busters for kicking cow piles and stomping roaches when they crawl into a corner.

    Here's a 1951 Bulova Allerton model I found in the graveyard. After putting it on life support and giving it a lot of TLC it came back to life.

    Thank you Fading Fast. It was in pitiful shape when I first received it and not running at all. I took it completely apart cleaned, oiled and adjusted it. It's keeping time within +/- 4 seconds a day now.

    Very nice Elgin Luftwaffles. I just found the site James listed the other day and it has a wealth of information on Elgins.

    Bulova Watches

    I've had the Bulova on the left in this photo for quite a while and thought it was the Bulova "La Fayette" model. It's a 1929. Then recently I acquired the one on the right and now I think it's the "La Fayette" model. It's a 1931. Both have the 10AN 15 jewel movement. It's a never ending search...

    I recently bought this old Ingraham planning to use the band on something else. The minute hand was off of it and I assumed it wouldn't run. But when I received it I wound it and it started running. You can hear the no jewel movement tick from 3 feet away. I took the movement out of the case and...

    Bulova Watches

    Thank you Luftwaffles and Jamespowers. If you have a collection of anything, you should have pictures and serial numbers if that applies to what you collect in order to prove they are yours in the case of unforeseen circumstances where they are stolen or damaged through no fault of your own...
