Geeez, so many guns and only one holster!!!

 

I like large collections, wish I could see them closer, all those semi-autos look the same.

Clone this, clone that.  But still fun to throw brass and lead around.  There must be a Colt 1911 in there.

 

I'm droulingDrool, I might pick up my Colt 1911 this coming Friday.  Like a kid waiting for Christmas or a Birthday.   BTW, my birthday is this month if you want to send me a gun or two....poke

Happyness is a Hot DW and a pile of used brass!!! Rich

Outstanding collection of semi's!  The 1911 is the largest produced and selling handgun in history and after 100 years it's still the largest seller.  It's a platform that just can't be beat.  The Nighthawk looks like a beauty with those ivory grips!

I just got a couple unusual semi's in this week.  One is a Vektor SP1 General's model - it's a pretty exotic looking 9mm manufactured in South Africa and based on the Beretta 92 frame.  The other is a Beretta 92 Compact NIB.  I was looking for a Type M with the 8 rd. grip but they're a tough one to find.

 

Really nice collection!

Nice "Starter" collection… but…

No Dan Wesson 1911's?

No Les Baer's ?

No Wilson Combats, Fusions, or Ed Brown's, Clark, Marvel or Brazos' STI's?

Looks to me like you have plenty of opportunity to improve your collection with any or all of the above makes!  Your Nighthawk and Gold Cup are very nice pistols, IMHO.

All Kidding aside… Question for you….

How do you figger out which one(s) to bring to the range…..?

I have the same problem… and I kind of rotate them in the safe….

I had a Wilson, a Bear and an Ed Brown at one time. I didn't shoot them often; the Night Hawk has 6 rounds through it and the Gold Cup has never been fired. Traded the Wilson and some cash for a Devine M14; traded the Bear and some cash for a FNC F/A carbine; and traded the Brown for some Harley Davidson performance parts and work.

I rarely shoot any of the guns I have with only a couple of exceptions. When I do go to the range I always shoot the 3 I carry: a Walther PPK (380); a S&W Airweight (38) and a Kimber Ultra Carry (45). I have a 7.2x39 upper on an AR15 lower I use for hog hunting that I like to take and keep in practice; other than that I just grab a couple of other things on occasion.

The odd and sad thing is, of all of the DW revolvers I have, I have shot only two of them.

Between the Dan's and the 1911's, how do you store all these ?

 I see the safe, do you have a custom rack ?

Four.....with another scheduled for delivery the end of the month.

When I get some time I will take a picture of the cats and dogs (all of the other handguns) and post it. I'm waiting for Jody to open a long gun forum, too.

I have an amazing wife. For my 50th birthday she bought me a new LeMans blue C6 convertible Corvette; she has been hinting around the past couple of months that she thinks we should move into a more modest home on some acreage where I can build a large out building for my toys. She even asked what I thought it would cost for an indoor or semi-underground "range" so I could shoot indoors at home.

I got one in a million. But, then agian, she doesn't know for sure what and how many toys I haveLaugh
