    Guns and knives are fine, gun politics isn't (this includes both sides) just because watching Americans yell at each other is far less entertaining on the internet than it is on the Maury Povich show.

    Gentlemen this is not a debate thread. You don't have to follow it if it is not your interest.

    @sc-texas - really do miss the 8500ti. It really was one of the best looking watches I ever owned. Just could not get over the thickness of the watch.

    Love the firearms hobby, but like my love for watches, my tastes run to vintage examples.

    Here's the large and the small of the Colt double-action revolver line in the first decade of the 20th century. A 1905 vintage Colt New Pocket .32 Long Colt and a Colt New Service U. S. military contract Model 1909 in .45 Colt. Cartridges are shown with a .22 Long Rifle for comparison purposes.

    Yeah I got my pee pee slapped there once for having part of a 1911 in the background. So out of focus I didn't notice.

    No pictures yet but recently picked up a M14 sporter. Have several of the ARs, started adding retro versions.

    If you like the P226 you should check out the P229 SAS. Won't fit in the watch pocket of your jeans, but a bit smaller. And damn accurate for a compact pistol. And in this case its ok that they polished off all the sharp edges :eek:

    How many rounds does the little Ruger hold? When I'm looking for something small I use a H&H P2000sk or a Springfield XDs 9mm.

    6 + 1 (chamber). Ruger also makes a 7 round magazine for this one.
