I'm surprised Texas hasn't legalized carry for anyone over 16! :) Texas is a great state!

Enjoy the toy.

Berettas are Ok. But they're like some women I know - not enough up front and a little too heavy in the butt.

Whats it cost to pull the trigger on that one? Each shot.

Nice collection BTW.

thanks its about $1.25 per squeeze My S&W the 460 is awesome but there about 2.25 a pop but the ballistics are unbelievable 200 gr .45 bullet @ over 2200 fps at the muzzle and at 100 yards I still have more energy then a 44 mag at the muzzle. I need to get back to reloading one of these days but those 2 dont get much range time $$$

Just a thought I am looking at a 4in Kimber Crimson Trace. I think that will be my carry gun.

200 grain eh? I shoot 165. I want to have a wrist left after a half hour of shooting thank you very much!

Where do you do your purchases? Go see Carl at Four Seasons in Woburn if you are near there....excellent person to deal with and a great shop

Yeah, the Mass-hole "Approved firearms" list is a joke. I found a dealer that will transfer ANYTHING. He says the list is a consumer protection list, kinda like them telling you that this crib is dangerous because your baby could get his head stuck in the rails. Does not mean that you can't own one, they just advise against it. He says the list is like that and the state has scared the crapola out of out of state dealers into thinking that if it's not on the list, they can't sell it to you.

So I get someone I know to buy the gun, then take it to this guy, "sell" it to him, and he "sells" it to me. All perfectly legal.
If I could find a dealer out of state that is of the same mind as this guy, I would be in heaven!

My goal is to aquire as many guns that are NOT on the list as I can!

Funny thing is, the 96fs is on the approved roster, but not on the large capacity list (anyting over 10 rounds is large) this gun holds 11. I do know you can get a 10 round mag for it. The one I really wanted was the "90-Two" in .40 cal but I could not find a deal on one like I did on the 96fs. That one is NOT on the list.

Sounds nice, but I like something with a punch to it and easy to carry........
A stainless steel Colt Combat Commander in 45 cal for me!

The .40's have a punch to them, but I agree, the .45 has a very nice punch to it. I'm debating whether my next one will be a Kimber .45 or a DE .50

I really want the M1A Socom II in Urban Camo.. but that's $2,120.00
