Well, maybe Sarge, but my plan is for them all to go to an auction house on my death with proceeds going to the Wounded Worrier project.

Well I hope you stick around with us for a while and that you don't check out any time soon!! Again. Thanks for posting some really nice wood and steel!!!

Star Model B, supplied by the Facist Spaniards to Germany in the 1940s for use by rear echelon and police units.

Now that's interesting! We always hear about the German weapons to Spain, like the Bf109, He111, Ju52, and Do24s, but never the other way around.

Well all I needed was another 94. Found this old warhorse at the LGS where I worked for a while. Couldn't pass up the price as some past owner had spilt coke cola all over right side of receiver. However the piece is otherwise tight and clean. And I did have this old Redfield #70 receiver sight laying around in need of a carbine home ;)! I'm a sucker for cheap winchesters. Oh yeah, it was born in '53.

New Pick up truck gun!!!

Really nice. If I were in the US, a collection of lever action Winchesters and western hats would be in my hand.
You do know I envy you.

About time for a new revolver I think?

Bought on Sunday last, shot yesterday, sending to Ruger tomorrow :( the front sight must be out of place or the barrel not fully aligned - shoots about 10" left at 7 yards, the rear sight has to be ALL the way to the right to find the X ring...oh well [huh], they'll fix it.

Ruger usually stands by their products---now. Make sure to let them know that this one got by quality control.

Wow, that looks nice. I agree Ruger will take care of it. I have had to send a LCR back to them and they fixed it and fixed it fast.

Nice find! Mike. Bummer is it will have to be overnighted due to handgun regs. Equals $$$ in shipping. Try calling Ruger quality control and see if they will send you a prepaid postage label. Sometimes mfg will! Doesn't hurt to ask!!!!

I spoke with them this morning Bob, they've sent me a FedEx label & return number - good folks to deal with.

Great!!!!! That will save you at least $80+ overnight shipping!!!! We always shipped handguns fed ex. They seemed to be best to deal with.

I forgot, use to be Fed reg that all handguns had to be shipped by FFL holder. Long guns can be shipped by individual to repair station. Might check into that as well keep you out of trouble.
