While you were out......

[Brian Williams]

A Musuem has called you and they recognize your infinite wisdom in Firearm trivia and minutia. They want your opinion on what firearms they should have in their collection. You can only pick one and it cannot be one previously chosen by one of the fellow members of this illustrious board.

My pick would be the first FBI issued S&W Model 13 3" heavy barrel, Round butt with issue holster.

 

[chadintex]

Glock 17

 

[Kharn]

STG 44 (is that the right nomenclature? The German assault rifle from WWII)

Kharn

 

[Henry Bowman]

M-1 Garand

 

[DMK]

S&W Military and Police.

Widely used by the military, police and security over most of this century.

 

[Spackler]

Colt 1911

 

[Hemicuda]

Pre-64 Winchester Mod. 70 in "Alaskan" grade, and 300 H&H caliber...

 

[Mike Irwin]

A Henry rifle.

A Luger. All museums have Lugers.

 

[Mal H]

You mean, never before mentioned in this thread? Or what?

1896 Mauser. Broomhandle. The only problem would be the people visiting the museum and wondering why Chewbacca's laser crossbow thing isn't sitting right beside it.

 

[a9mmfan]

Well if it was a Dallas, Texas museum, I would say a "Mannlicher-Carcano"

 

[Ala Dan]

.45 caliber SIG-Sauer P220A

[Rupestris]

Winchester 94 in 30-30

 

[Brian Williams]

Should we get C.R.Sam as curator

 

[BerettaNut92]

The pistol that was used to kill Ferdinand.

 

[willyjixx]

cant remember the name

but it was a 1 shot 45 stamped pistol. had to pop the shell out with a pencil. it was supposedly made in the millions by the US an distrubited to South American countries to assist an promote assinations of corrupt dictators. i read this in a janes book a long time ago. ill find it tonight and elaborate more. the pistol itself is junk but the history of it would be museum grade material

 

[jsalcedo]

OSS Liberator

 

[Kestryll]
