    a few recent additions; some new, some old!


    Big Brother and Little Brother...



    cal
    Rock Island Tactical II Government and Commander both in 10mm


    After I get them both broken in at the range (already took the Government Model to the range once) I think they will make a great carry and back-up combo! I have a couple of Bianchi Carrylok holsters (5" and 4-1/2") Model 82 that they fit into...even the railed Commander!


    Here's the first target with the Government Model:





    French MAB Model D 7.65mm aka .32 acp
    top: H&R .32 cap auto-loader; bottom Webley & Scott Self-loader marked 7.65mm and .32 auto

    Love the 10mm,looking at the Rock Island pretty hard too.
    "An armed society is a polite society"
    "...shall not be infringed" What's the confusion?

    Picked this one up today: Winchester Model 52B, made in 1949, complete with a 10X Lyman Targetspot Scope and Redfield Olympic Front, Redfield Palma rear sights including a total of 10 front sight inserts. When you look at the magazine please note that it is a factory single shot magazine; the follower wings are wider then the body. I've found a source for 52B 5 shot magazines, $60 each for NOS! Not US marked. This is my third vintage bull barreled .22 lr target rifle. All three models have a military connection but only one of mine is US marked. I have a US marked H&R M12 with Palma and Olympic sights and a Unertl 10x scope; this Winchester, and a Stevens 416 not US marked either.


    I've had some guns on consignment at a friend's gun shop for a while; he sold a Benelli M1 and an 870 Marine Magnum so I took this very clean target rifle in lieu of cash. I also got a Browning, made in Mexico Basketweave Western Style High Power Holster and a Bucheimer "Semi Shoulder" snub nose revolver holster; a high rise paddle holster that unsnaps and can be used as a belt holster.


    Its a very clean example of a non-US marked early postwar .22 target rifle:















    Despite me naming the photos as "52D" it is a 52B as noted by the serial number!
