Some more collectables I recently acquired.

Im not sure if I still have a 37mm launcher. Or at least one suitable for these.

Before and after tisas m1911 upgrade

Bought some original GI grips from Sarco because the ones that come with the tisas m1911 clone look terrible. Super happy with the result, even if the original composite grips are a little worn.

Kinda wish I would have spent the extra on the wood grips with a rack marking. But maybe ill get a yellow grease marker or something and try to recreate them.

Im not a big 1911 guy at all. But having one in the collection is really fulfilling. Of course an original would be cooler. But ive got like 300 bucks into this thing and it just works.

Doing yard work with the Shhh-uzi and the new Rico309

Rico309 is pretty great. Lighter weight than it looks, and top tier in sound suppression. Uzi is a classic heavy brick with oversized grip

I got the opportunity to shoot the OOW REAPR a couple weeks ago.

Definitely a cool gun. Unfortunately I only got to experience it in 7.62NATO. I like the slower rate of fire. Im not sure if the 338 configuration fires at a higher rate or not. Looking at the feed tray, you can definitely tell that this gun is built for 338.

It is definitely long and the barrel is probably the heaviest part. Itd be interesting to see a lighter barrel made just to run it in 7.62 rather than a 7.62 version of the full size barrel.

Sweet shooting gun. Very nice, even by modern standards. Most old guns are clunky, or have a weird manual of arms. The only thing strange was the under-handguard charging handle, which is just a learning issue. And the right side feed, but thats just how this gun was set up at the time.

Pps43 in 9mm. He loved it. I think his favorite was the suppressed sten.

Big Bore Blast. Sometimes things just happen for a reason. Last minute a young guy shows up with a British APC to display and drive around.

Another guy has an M240 and ammo for it.

One of our staff puts two and two together, a little hammering and tinkering to get it all installed, and this old machine was fully armed and firing for the first time in many decades.

The owner of the APC was excited to shoot a real m240 from it. And the m240 owner was excited to shoot his gun from the turret of an APC.

What an awesome experience. Big shout out to Batcave Ballistics for putting their gun up top, and the owner of the APC for bringing it out and keeping every little mechanism in perfect order. Hopefully we can do it again next year!
