Czech Republic making Gaston Glock look bad! CZ P-09, poly frame, steel upper, 1 in the pipe 19 in the magazine = 20 rounds of 9MM in hand! A great pistol; a more compact version is called the P-10.

Very nice, but don’t forget about the P07.

You can say that again!
A friend let me shoot his P-07 (shorter version) at the range. If ever there was a plastic magic wonder nine I could love, it's that one. Great ergonomics, points naturally, trigger is nice. My wife shot it, his wife shot it, I shot it. Everyone that shot it was slaying plates on the plate rack as if the gun was aiming by itself.

During WWI France was desperate to arm its military with sidearms. In the North of Spain, near and around Eibar the Spanish small arms industry worked overtime to make what has become known as a “Ruby” style pistol. Chambered in 7.65mm (aka .32 acp) the French Military bought them by the bushel basket! This one, marked “Destroyer” has two markers that point to its service with the French Army - one, a lanyard loop, and two, a round steel button on the left side of the slide to prevent the manual safety from disengaging when holstered. I need to work on tuning the magazine to reliably shoot it; mechanically it fieldstrips like the Browning 1903 the Colt clones...

21 April:

I recently bought a Beretta Olympia "Dual Action" Rimfire Rifle from J&G Sales. Leaving the bolt handle up the gun functions as a semi-auto. Locking the bolt handle down after chambering a round you must operate the bolt manually. One misfire out of 50 rounds - a defective round. It cycles and fires CCI Stingers without any issues.

Here are some pictures of the rifle; will get it outside when its not raining and take some better shots. It has a Beretta Date Code of XVI for 1960. Considering age its in great condition.









22 April:
Picked this Ballester-Molina up last year; matched serial number on frame and inside of slide; all matching numbers on frame, slide, barrel, and two magazines. No import marks to be found anywhere... I can't find any evidence that it's been refinished; if that holds up to your discerning eyes - I think winner, winner, chicken dinner!

SARCO has the “Peron” Grade BM for sale at $995.00; I’d hate to see how much they’d charge for mine!
