For a Glock 19, would you recommend generation 3, 4, or 5 and why?

 

[romaso]

Actually, I collect and shoot old bolt action military surplus rifles, mostly 1890's through 1960's.

No Lee-Enfields?

The one on the very left is an Ishapore 2A. That's as close as I can get without adding another caliber to the supply line.

Here’s what I keep in my desk. A S&W Model 65-7 .357 Magnum.

S&W's have the sweetest trigger of any revolver.

Just discovered this thread. I've been licensed to carry concealed in New York since '84, am a peace-lovin' man, and smoke a pipe. Call me crass or even ill-bred, but after gunning someone down in a rabid frenzy of typical gun owner rage, I tend to favor the full flavor of a good cigar. Don't know why.

"Typical gun owner rage". ?‍

Well, sad story. My step Dad passed away in July due to complications from bypass surgery. He was an avid collector of the .22 and had most of these when I was a kid. Was a major pain getting them all shipped from California to Georgia (and costly) but they are in a good home. Will be passed down to my kids along with the 30 or so I already owned. I miss the guy and think of him every time I hold one.

Kurt, So sorry for your loss. Think of him when you shoot those!

I will indeed. Thank you my friend.

Nice to see a responsible gun owner using a secure cabinet for his collection.

Regards,

Despite what some might imply, most of us do take necessary precautions.

No way to "home protect" with my .58 Zouave carbine, as I haven't seen musket caps anywhere for some years now.

Yeah, I can imagine. Have a couple of Derringers chambered for .32 ACP and can’t readily find ammo for them these days
