I'd like to post a pic of my RPG-7V weapons crate... but the pic was on photobucket.

But there can't be too many of those in the country.

My Grandad brought this (among others) back from Germany in WW2.

It is a Sempert & Krieghoff. Single shot schuetzen with double off set triggers. We think it's an 8mm. We've never shot it. It's obviously customized to whoever ordered it.

It is hands down one of the prettiest rifles that I've ever held.

Wish I had some better pics but we took these for records purposes.

what the heck, i'll post this for the second time in two days. I've posted this several times lately so forgive me if you've seen it before. I guess I keep hoping someone will have seen one elsewhere and have info.

Victor Collette pistol derived off a 1859 Sharps. .32 rimfire, firing pin rotates to the next barrel when the hammer is cocked. I suspect it is from the 1860s or 1870s

Design differs as this pistol has a small lever to unlock and pivot open for reloading. I have not been able to find any documentation of others like it.

Unusual ammo......the Navy SEAL silent 12ga shotgun shell.

More unusual ammo......T42 full metal jacket .22LR developed for the OSS High Standard suppressed HD pistol to comply with the Hague Accords.

And one more example of odd ammo.......the Navy 81mm Mk120 Mod O flechette mortar round. These were only used on Vietnam era Swifts and Alpha boats with deck mounted mortars capable of firing horizontally into the jungle.

NO FAIR. I cannot identify all those cartridges without a scale or something. (Scale = ruler in engineer speak)

Danish m/49 Service Pistol

which is the Danish version of the Swiss Model of 1949 Service Pistol, which we all know as the P210.

The Danes needed a new pistol for their military and police units, and wisely decided that buying the best pistol available in Europe at the time made more sense than designing and manufacturing their own. A quick agreement with SIG was inked, and the m/49 entered service in Denmark in, you guessed it, 1949. The pistol was so successful that the Danes still have some of them in service today.

This particular m/49 entered my collection yesterday.

The pistol that came close to being our standard military pistol (and my grail gun

)

Savage .45acp. After multiple entries in the trials (including Luger), the last two in the race were this pistol and JMB's 1911:

Guy I hunted with last year had a Deer Stalker in .44 Mag. Awesome little rifle. Basically carrying a 10/22 around the woods. Aren't they the Ruger Model 44? Looking to buy one now, haven't been made in years so they are a little hard to track down.
