This picture is probably at least 5 years old and I have added a few more originals since then.
The display was basically present an example or two of all of the main lever guns that Winchester ever made. All but 3 are Winchester--some original and some Miroku. The two brass frames and the 76 centennial are Italian clones since the original versions of those are a bit beyond my budget. I generally don't by any antique that I can't take out and shoot occasionally.
Front to back: (1) 1860 Henry (Italian),(2) 1866 Yellowboy (Italian).(3) 1873 short rifle (Miroku).(4)1873 sporting rifle(original), (5)1876 in 45-60 (Italian), (6) 1886 in 45-70 (Miroku), (7) 1892 in 32-20 (original),(8) 1894 from 1915 (original), (9) 1894 from 2006 (last year of US production), (10) 1895 takedown in 30-06 (Miroku)

It was used, but looks unfired. And it came with all the goodies. I would say what I paid for it, but I hate to make grown men cry.

I have never been a big fan of HK. Most don’t fit my hand, have that silly mag release and cost a lot. But I was having gun withdrawals and the price was right so, I bought it. Well let’s just say that when the dropped the price by $80, I bought it.Always have been fascinated by the VP9 after I rented one. Not enough to buy one but enough to always feel the pull.
I know I don't shoot it any better than a comparable Glock, but it still calls.
I’m curious of your opinion on the VP9 once you shoot it since you’re a Glock guy. I only have three polymer guns left and two of them are striker guns. The VP9 is one of them.I have never been a big fan of HK. Most don’t fit my hand, have that silly mag release and cost a lot. But I was having gun withdrawals and the price was right so, I bought it.

But I have been looking at adding something different to my service size pistol collection.

PS, if you’ve got larger hands the paddle mag release may surprise you nice you start using it. I really like it.
Let us know.
I do like Glocks but I really prefer the S&W M&P. I’ve fired a few VP9s and liked them, one had a mushy trigger. This one seems to have a good trigger.I’m curious of your opinion on the VP9 once you shoot it since you’re a Glock guy. I only have three polymer guns left and two of them are striker guns.

Not so much that I don’t like the mag release, it’s just that it’s different.I also really like the paddles on my dad's Walther P99.
