The Model 1915 is a rare one. I have come across a Model 1917 in the past, but couldn't afford it at the time.

They really are. Very art deco in it's design

You sir are a pyromaniac. ;)

Picked this up about a week ago at a local gun shop. It had been languishing in the display case since last Christmas. the price tag was $400, I offered $350 and the shop agreed to sale at that...

They also use them in Germany. During my tour of duty there (93-96) I received a couple.

Our local Starbucks is fine and I go there frequently. I really think it depends on the area when it comes to Starbucks.

I applied with Houston, Las Vegas and Portland (OR) in 2000. I didn't get hired by them. The agency that hired me is in Idaho and started me at $11.50 an hour. I'm up to $32.00 an hour now. It's a...

Thread Drift. The struggle is real.

She did but so did her mother and I. Go figure. Anyway we'll do our level best to keep it civilized. She's our daughter.

Appreciate it. It's been a few days so the shock is fading. The funny thing is that I used to read about parents who experienced similar situations in the late sixties and early seventies and...

So I'm reading that there are nine Minneapolis city council members (a veto-proof majority) who are going to vote to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department. That is approximately 800 officers. I...

These were introduced a couple years after Miami Vice went off the air, but They would have fit in just fine.

I didn't care for them when they were being made. It was a few years ago that I started to appreciate them when I purchased a 745 (2nd Gen). I then inherited my father's two (4586 & 4516) and I...

Combat Commander manufactured in 1975. Purchased by my father the same year at a little hole-in-the-wall gunstore in Idaho Falls, Idaho. I was seven that year and thought it was great that dad had...

Good looking pistol. I used to own a 745, but it got away from me. I'll be holding onto my 4586. I like your username. You out in the Arco area? I grew up outside of Rigby. Live in Caldwell now. My...

I saw ever one of the movies at the theater in 86 or a second-run theater in 87. Boy that brings back some memories.

I don't carry my Colts and I don't shoot them all the time. However I've talked to a few old-timers who carried and shot Colts in the past. In a couple cases thousands of rounds fired through their...

Yes a bad thing indeed. I couldn't believe my luck when I found this one and still in 455 Webley. No importer stamp and in addition to the British proof marks it also has New Zealand markings. If...

You too. I was searching for info on 3rd Gen S&W autos and stumbled across this site.

I know what you are talking about. A couple years ago I came across this old warhorse and I knew that I wasn't going to go home without it. Out came the old plastic and the classic cry of "Charge!"...

Class of 86 (Idaho Falls High School) and Class of 90 (Boise State University). Dad was Idaho State Police (1973-1994). In 1989 ISP celebrated it's 50th Anniversary. S&W made a limited run of...

I'm there with you. Mine was manufactured in 48. Love that long smooth action. I've owned mine since 2009. Very nice shooter and I like the five inch barrel.

A plain-Jane S&W Model 49 Bodyguard (mfd. 1973). It serves as both my back-up (GLOCK 19 is my primary sidearm) and often serves as my CCW though sometimes it's the G19. Just depends.

In the past few years I've become rather enamored of Colt DA revolvers. In particular the non-Mk III actions (though I have no issue with the Mk III models). The post-73 DS (top) was gifted to me by...

Joining late.My father was Idaho State Police from 73-94. ISP transitioned to autos in 1991 when the organization went the 4586. Dad purchased a 4516-1 a year or so later just because. When he...
