Have shot it yet, I picked it up this morning on a whim. I really wanted a USP 45... or a 226 threaded. I couldn’t pass up a NIB Mk23 & they knocked off $100.

Should have gotten a Mateba also pin me nigger

As an owner of both the Mk23 and USP45t you should have saved the 1000 and held out for the 45t.

This isn't new, I got this years ago, but mine also came with manuals, etc.

Did yours show up covered in green specs of shit from the interior of the case deteriorating over time? That crap was gunked everywhere on this thing when i got it.

Haha, no. I can't say that it did. Although it was my friend's first, so it may have.

Bought an M&P Shield at Academy for $361 with my tax refund bux. My CCW

Still in the process of returning the hacked up POS I bought two weeks ago, but already sent payment for another Uzi. This one's supposed to be in beautiful condition. We shall see.

Neat. A usp tactical in 45 is on my short list of guns

Just picked up a Five-seven. What light should I put on it? I was thinking about grabbing a TLR-1HL

Picked up this 1920 production .25-20 Winchester 1892 for $50 yesterday. The father in law of the guy I bought it from had it in his barn for who knows how long, and he had carved his state drivers license number into the stock and scratched it into the receiver

He wanted to just give it away but eventually wanted enough to take his wife out to dinner

Back from when people saw guns as real tools and not fashion accessories.

jesus i thought my FNX was big

That's probably the best bang for the buck.

Hey I’m not complaining, it kills collector value but who cares. It has a nice bore and the action although grimy is surprisingly good feeling in comparison to the looks of the rest of the gun. I’ll clean it up and keep it

I had to re-read the OP where it said that was sitting on a legal pad. Damn that's a big fucker. I've never seen one in person.

Oh, I'm not saying you were complaining. I just think it's funny people used to do that to keep guns from getting lost/stolen, and now on Jow Forums you see posts talking about returning a brand new rifle because there's tool mark somewhere no one will ever see.

MK23s looks big, but they really aren't that big once you're holding it compared to a lot of guns. A DE feels bigger in the hand, IMO. I can even grip and shoot the 23 better than my USP9 Expert.

>$50
Like fifty dollars or did you forget a zero and mean $500? Because $50 for an original Model 92 is theft.

Tigr Dragunov + bipod/sling/4 mags for the low low price of $6,500
I'm thinking about getting an MR73 next.

Oh shit man.

That means a lot coming from someone with actually expensive, rare, unusual guns. Thanks. :)

I think it's great, with Trausch grips and weight I'm sure it will be nice shooting. I would if I had the balls to spend that much on a single gun but the heeb is strong in me. I saw a used one for mid $1,000s on gunbroker the other day, that's probably more where I'd be because the surplus ones are nowhere near $500 anymore and might as well get a legit commercial blued one. But new price scares me.

I'm waiting for Walther Q5 Steel Frames to get back in stock and when they do, with all the goodies, that'll probably be the most expensive gun I'll have bought. Which is nothing compared to some of your stuff.

That's odd. I've give them a call.

My R51 ordered 2 weeks ago hasn't shipped either, I called and it turns out the distributor never got a batch of orders, so it's going out Monday. Supposedly.

My favorite handgun that I own.

I got a FNC yesterday.

This isn't as unusual as you'd think. People in the old days would carve their license or SSNs into guns and tools in case they were stolen or lost.

How awful are these to shoot? I've wanted one ever since I saw an ad in a 1982 Survival Guide magazine, but I know they are basically German Hipoints

>German Hipoints

:'( Please don't say that. They have awful triggers, to be sure, but they are actually fun little pistols. They're sturdy, reliable, and aesthetic. Plus, a piece of important firearm history. No bully.

i've been ignoring handguns for a while and have never owned a revolver. I figured a new mr73, treated well, will outlast and outshoot me and will look great doing it.
I'm getting one with a smaller import stamp than pic related though. croikey look at the size of this thing

When I ordered my M9A3 they didn't have any G models and they only had the ten round SKUs. So I had to order the mags separately. This was directly from Beretta.

Nice

Picked this up at the Maryland Arms Collector Show

Oh damn that sucks for multiple reasons

Hm, your serial number matches, mine doesn't. Wonder how common that is

Nope, doesn't look like it to me.

Very nice my dude.

What are these actually worth? A local shop has an Izhmash Tigr listed for $6999. Scope and three mags.

Hey youre the guy I was talkign to in my FNC thread. Thats not a bad price. Do you like it? Ive shot my NDM-86 a grand total of 4 rounds in 1.5 years lol

>tfw got my NDM in 54r in october of 2017 for $4250

>really aren't that big once you're holding it compared to a lot of guns
>lot of guns
what else besides the Deagle?

bipod? does it have svd flash hider with bayo lug? is furniture a nice wood or polymer? how many rounds through it?
You described a $5,800 rifle by my estimate if slightly used. More if mint
good job. i will get my hands on it next weekend if all goes well. Lol, shoot it more man! Just clean it immediately after. I plan to shoot mine 500ish times, 20 times a year or so

Attached: hh.jpg (960x1280, 181K)

Grip on the Expert 9 is a tad smaller then the Mk23, I tend to shoot the Expert better. Neither one is noticeably more accurate than any of my other pistols in my hands at least.

somewhere theres a German laughing his ass off...We sold another one hahahahahahaha!

I honestly just dont shoot it because

>not THAT much different functionality than my PSL/M76?tabuk
>expensive as fuck is I have something insane happen like a doublecharged bullet
>general parts breakage

I bought it 100% for collectability. There was a guy trying to sell all of the parts needed to convert it to an SVDS on the files a while back for like $2200 which is a really good deal. The TIGR has much better finish on them than the NDM's although they lack those few inches of barrel length. Both are top tier for shitting on poor-niggers who have PSLs though kek.

I chose finish over barrel length, you're right. I think both are great at the DMR role. I get it, but a handful of rounds a year should be ok! Treat your NDM to some more sunlight

They're pretty big here's mine under my 1911

What is it?

Attached: IMG_E1406.jpg (3777x1809, 1.46M)

This is a P-83 Wanad, Poland's take on the makarov. Many of you know the manufacturer as circle 11. All polish AK receivers and arms had circle 11 stamped on them during that time. Circle 11 was formerly known as FB Radom, the plant that made the VIS 35 pistol during WW2.

The commie overlords did not allow the plant to retain its prewar name and certainly didn't allow them to stamp a Polish eagle on anything - ESP the eagle w/ a crown. The crown implied obviously the forbidden idea of kings and of true independence.

Anyhow this one is part of the short run of the commie pistols they made up until after they threw off the commie yolk, which explains the markings. Some of these also got made for civilian export (likely this is one of those)

It was supposed to be replaced w/ a new version, the P-93 in 1993, but it was a failure and didn't get made outside of prototypes. With the open market being an option, I believe they replaced it with a the glock for a time, but then replaced that with the WIST-94, and VIS-100

Pretty unique with some subtle great details.

this fellas stamp isn't in cursive. I'm going to order one.

AHHHAHAHAH... what a retard.

Find me a cheaper one for sale, that is available.

There's one on Phoenix Armslist for like 1100, I think.

Gad blast it, why can't they just do it on the bottom of the barrel?

Simpson LTD goes out of their way to find really creative ways to very subtly place their import marks, pic related, and they do this even on the cheapest junkers they import. Is this so hard?! Especially for a $3,000 gun?

God damn it's worse than dealership stickers/plate frames/emblems because at least those you can remove!

Sorry. Do it user, I'll be jelly. You too
