What I bought and added to my gun collection.
A while back I told the members of this forum that I got started late in the gun collection game and had a goal of 20 firearms to buy.Twenty because that's what I promise the wife I would stop at. Well with what i've bought this year along i've pass the number 20 with the wife blessing.These are what i've purchased in 2016.I will be buying two or three or maybe six more.lol

My dad and brother have the Hi-Power sickness. Dad's is a 1958 and my brothers is a 1962. They each have more than one, but won't stand for Portuguese production!
I have a 1911 condition, I'm down to 8 of that diagnoses, I have relapsed from 13, but am always looking for an additional infestation! I'm not too particular, they don't have to have a pony on them.
45 ACP, Cocked and Locked since 1911! 9mm the choice of defeated empires since 1908!
Now I've gone and started it!

I agree. For range-time any will do, but when it's carry-time the Mark III is the best choice.

Every time I've ever said I'm done, something comes up.
