Mmmmm… now I must photograph my black powder collection sooner or later, the bottom 2 pockets make me want to fondle my cap and ball pepperbox again. One of these days I’ll have the balls, or dislike of my right hand enough to actually load and try it out.

@...tiki god: The grippy part of the third gun down on the right is blue.

Yeah, the grippy part. I went there.

Also, the pully thing is white, what’s up with that?

@...SumoSnipe: You’re passing on the Walther? For shame… 😛

@...LukeV1-5: Grippy part? Pully thing? ROFLMAO…

I think the “pully thing” 🙂 on what I think is a Walther PPK is probably brushed, not white. Hard to tell though, the way the picture is all blurred…

@...Phyreblade: have fired them before, not comfortable, too small for my paws.

@...Karatesaurus Rex: I have a 51 navy… It is so fun to set targets on fire while punching near 1/2 inch holes through em…..

@...SumoSnipe: My SIL a NYPD and she let me shoot her 38 revolver (target practice) and my fingers weren’t long enough to pull the trigger. I ended using a 383 (?). I have an eye like a dead eagle…as it turns out. ;<)

@...SumoSnipe: Yeah, I’ve played with one, they seem to be designed for portability and stealth more than anything else, and don’t exactly fill your hand like a 1911 or anything…

The only reason that it holds a special spot for me is because it’s the 00 agents standard issue… 🙂 It certainly wouldn’t be my first pick if given a choice…

@...nyokki: A *dead* eagle…? LOL haven’t heard that one before..

@...Phyreblade: Hubby uses it all the time, along w/ …has the flightpath of a homesick rock and dumber than a bag of rocks. There’s prolly more, I just can’t think of ’em.

@...nyokki: has he used “as reasonable as a bag of rabid chihuahuas”?
@...Phyreblade: yeah, my pinky ended up curled under the magazine, and that lip at the bottom got in the way of ring finger…not very confident for a grip.

@...SumoSnipe: Haha, no, that’s a new one on me.
