On Memorial Day please take a moment to remember all who have served and now serve this great nation. Especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Thanks to all who served, have served, and especially, those still missing and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Don't own a PD marked gun but have my Dad's old model 10-5 4" pencil barrel unmarked duty gun. Up here in the wilderness that's called "New England" we don't seem to mark our guns like the big city does. I do find these old PD gun threads most interesting though.

My deepest sympathy and prayers to you and your family. May your son rest in peace. His sacrifice will not be forgotten. There is no greater honor than to give one's life for your country.

Thank you, it was both an honor and a privilege to serve this great country.

There are some holster charts in the "knives & collectibles" section of the forum. Should find the info you need there.

Another vote for the Model 60 Marlin. A great .22 rifle!

I thought I had made it clear on page 1 that it wasn't a fake???

I always made it a point to take visiting family & friends to see this hallowed ground and those who have the honor of protecting it while I was stationed at Andrews AFB. Very impressive, and a fitting tribute to all who have served and made the ultimate sacrifice. My grandfather was a member of...

I have that same holster still in the original packaging. It is an issue holster, not a fake. The NSN is 1095-00-973-0521 and the part number is 7791495. Mine is dated 3/85 and shows a contract date of 1984. It is a late issue holster, true, but it is the genuine article.

I made a similar post in the Vet's Forum yesterday. I'm proud to have served in the USAF for 20+ years and would gladly do it all over again.

Thanks for your service. We appreciate it. Keep safe.

Late 1976 - Early 1977

I ordered 1K of Magtech small pistol primers on 8/14. They were in stock and I received them today. They also have Winchester 231 powder in stock. Or, did when I ordered them. (I see that the primers are now backordered, sorry!)

Never purchase an AR-15 chambered for ONLY .223, you'll forever regret it if you do. Also, don't purchase one without a chrome lined barrel/chamber. The additional investment is well worth it, believe me.
