Bat Masterson's Colt 45


Of the original 300 guns, I have reacquired over 100 in varying conditions. Some survived the fire intact with very little damage, while others are just rusted pieces of once beautiful works of the gun-makers' art. Some have been meticulously restored to their original pre-fire condition while others remain just as they were pulled from the rubble. I have exhibited the collection at numerous gun shows, museums, and historic functions in an effort to procure leads on additional missing guns from the original collection. All surviving documentation on the collection are in my possession along with related family papers, photographs, museum inventory lists with serial numbers and accompanying photos. Among the more famous pieces that were once a part of the original collection were guns carried by the likes of Billy the Kid, Bat Masterson, Geronimo, Pancho Villa, Sam Houston, Grat Dalton, Captain Bill McDonald, Bill Tilghman, Wild Bill Hickok, William "Bill" Cook, James B. Bonham, Bill Doolin, Sam Bass, Frank Jackson, Cole Younger, Buffalo Bill Cody, Billy Dixon, Tex Rickard, Belle & Sam Starr, and Frank James. There were also numerous weapons taken from the not-so-famous, petty criminals who were killed in poker games or robbed a bank or store. I have been working for a few years on a book about the collection and the early history of the Clay County, Texas area during the time in which these men lived. I hope to publish it at some point in the near future. This web site was created to assist in the search for pieces still missing from the collection. I've traveled all over Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Mississippi to find these old family treasures and purchase them back. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

LIFESAVING CARRY AMMO

gunfight

Along with a quality handgun and holster, I have long considered enough spare ammunition for at least one reload to be essential personal safety equipment. Uniformed law enforcement officers routinely carry a pair of spare magazines, at least one less-lethal weapon, handcuffs, and a portable radio on the duty belt. Ironically, many of these same officers forego carrying any spare ammunition off duty or when on plainclothes assignments. Armed citizens too, erroneously feel that since they are equipped with a hi-cap pistol, an extra magazine isn’t worth the effort.

Armed confrontations tend to be fast breaking, short-range affairs that are over in just a few seconds. But while extended exchanges of gunfire are the exception rather than the rule, are you willing to bet your life on that? I’m not, and that slight inconvenience in carrying extra ammunition will pay dividends should Mr. Murphy call and you find yourself in an unusual event.


ROBARIZED G22 9mm

robarized-g22-9mm
With the Glock platform pistol set to surpass the M1911 as the most prevalent pistol in circulation, it is only natural that an entire aftermarket and custom industry surrounds the design. Robbie Barrkman and Robar Companies have been making Glock pistols “fit” and “feel” differently for many years now.

I know this fact may be sacrilege for many in the audience, but the Glock platform pistol is set to surpass the M1911 as the most prevalent pistol in circulation here in the U.S. Hundreds of thousands of Glock pistols are in the hands of citizens nationwide.

This being the case it is only natural that an entire aftermarket and custom industry surrounds the design. Numerous companies are offering parts and accessories to modify, customize, and enhance the Glock. Custom gunsmiths across the nation have been applying their own unique grip patterns and reconfigurations for many years now.

robarized-g22-9mm-c

All the steel components—slide, slide stop, slide lock, etc.—were coated with Robar’s NP3 finish. One of the most striking changes was the fabrication of a beavertail tang where there was none. Meanwhile, both the front- and backstraps were reduced and textured on the frame.

The primary subject for this review would be a standard Glock 22 chambered in .40 S&W. For this piece I would take the stock pistol and have several modifications made, both practical and cosmetic.
Robbie Barrkman, through Robar Companies, has been making Glock pistols “fit” and “feel” differently for many years now. They have an entire menu of choices. These include a grip reduction, to include removal of finger grooves if the owner desires, removing the triggerguard hook, and fabricating a high beavertail.

Their slide work includes forward cocking serrations, beveling/rounding the forward slide face, and custom engraving to name a few. Robar’s custom shop is the place where all of the new/additional parts for this pistol package would be installed and where the transformation would take place.

Custom Upgrades
robarized-g22-9mm-b

Ghost, Inc. offers a number of drop in parts for the Glock including back plate covers, mag releases, spring kits, firing pin stops, slide locks, firing pins, recoil springs/guides, etc.

I wanted the pistol to look good and shoot well. In addition to the custom shop work, I shipped a number of aftermarket parts for the Glock along with the pistol. Having previous experience with multi-caliber Glocks, I knew that I could safety and effectively fire 9mm ammunition from the G22 or G23 platform.

KKM Precision offers numerous aftermarket barrels for Glock pistols with fully supported chambers. I’ve used its barrels in the past and been impressed by the inherent accuracy they provided. For this particular project I ordered a G22 barrel chambered in 9mm. KKM catalogs four different barrel options for the G22, as well as dozens of others for various Glock models.


Para USA SSP Gun Rights .45ACP

Photo by Sovanski

The name Para USA conjures up visions of high capacity 1911-style pistols, new, huge extractors and their LDA (Light Double Action). Their catalog and website is replete with pictures and descriptions of subcompact, double stack LDA pistols for defense, high capacity/high speed race guns for competition and simple, single-action, single stack 1911 pistols.

I’ve done one or more articles a year on Para guns for several years running. When I’d gone for the biggest part of a year without a Para coming in for a test, I went into “Para withdrawal.” I made contact with them and they promised something special.

History of Airsoft Guns

Back in 1970 there was a big interest in firearms by the general population but it was illegal to own them. This spurted top manufacturers to create plastic spring powered guns that were replicas of the real thing. These toy guns used plastic pellets called BB’s as bullets that eventually became a standard 6mm and 8mm in size.

The earlier spring guns soon evolved into gas powered ones and airsoft gunplay became a popular sport. In 1990 the hobby of airsoft gunplay spilled over to NortCheap airsoft guns riflesh America, and it was then that the low powered cheaper spring guns were transformed into classic airsoft guns.

In the year 2000 automatic electric guns hit the market and many of the original airsoft manufactures in Japan went out of business as Japan hit a big recession, and only Tokyo Marui was left to be the primary manufacturer of these guns. Since then the AEG (automatic electric guns) market has grown to become the most popular of the airsoft replica guns. Mostly because a large number of manufacturers joined in from China and Taiwan to create airsoft gun replicas.

Today almost every type of real military weapon is replicated in airsoft style, including, auto and semi-auto, rifles, shotguns and hand guns, it is an intricate and realistic hobby for many who participate in the military battle style games with airsoft guns at the many commercial battle groAirsoft Guns Automaticunds all over the US.

The original source of the actual military type style of play that is so popular with airsoft gun enthusiasts is unknown, but its popularity continues from 2001 to the present as many enjoy the hobby of battle with airsoft guns.

Saddam Hussein's Golden Gun Collection

Colt Infantry Automatic Rifle (IAR)

The Colt IAR is Colt’s entry in the Marine IAR competition for a lightweight automatic rifle to replace the SAW in certain situations. It is an interesting weapon.

Under the barrel you can see a hefty heatsink. This is used to prevent cook-offs (when the primer of a chambered round is ignited by a hot chamber). It weights 9.5 lbs and has a 16″ barrel.

smglee ausa huge dscn0965 tm Colt Infantry Automatic Rifle (IAR) photo

It looks like the barrel may be be changed by simply removing the bolt you can see just in front of the magazine well.

Surprisingly the rifle/machine gun does not use a gas piston and uses the AR-15/M16 direct gas impingement system.

The above photo does show a Magpul PMAG but the Marines have specified that the IAR must be compatible with 30 USGI magazines, so it is unlikely the military will be adopting PMAGs, even in a limited role with the IAR.

Other IAR entries can operate with either an open bolt, in automatic fire, or closed bolt in semi automatic mode. This allows the accuracy benefits of a closed bolt with the heat reduction and reduced chance of a cook off of a closed bolt. I am not sure if this weapon has this feature.

Colt already have a lightweight automatic rifle, the Colt Automatic Rifle (CAR), which itself may meet the Marines requirements. I do not know if the Colt IAR has anything in common with the CAR, other than the shared AR-15 heritage.

ParaUSA LTC – Gun Blog 9

ParaUSA was kind enough to provide me with a firearm for the duration of the event, a 9mm customized version of their LTC platform. Hit the link to check out the standard version of the gun. The pistols that we had in 9mm were slightly different from the standard version, as you can see. (Note: Click all pictures for the fullsize version.) The flash wiped out the coyote brown finish a little bit in this picture, but the rest of the details of the pistol should be readily apparent. It had a single action trigger, a fiber-optic front sight, adjustable sights on the rear, an ambi-safety, skeletonized hammer and trigger, and of course the cherry on the Sundae of Awesome, a pair of Crimson Trace laser grips.

When I first saw it, I thought to myself “this is a pretty cool heater”, and then I flipped it over and looked at the right side of the gun, which pretty much cemented my decision to purchase right then and there. I mean come on, who wouldn’t want a gun that said “Gun Blog 9″ on the side, right? As to the actual shooting, I had not previously spent a lot of time with the 1911 platform, having maybe put 500 rounds downrange out of 1911s in my entire life, which really isn’t a whole lot. I didn’t have anything against the platform, I thought that it was a fine gun for stuff, it just didn’t fit my needs.

Putting north of 1500 rounds through this gun changed my opinion of 1911s, not because I now think it’s the ultimate weapons platform, but I understand the gun a lot better. I still don’t like grip safeties very much, but I will say that the 1911 grip angle pointed more naturally than any other handgun I’ve ever run; the fact that when I listed to Todd Jarrett and did my part that the Para LTC would come right back on target didn’t hurt either.

I shot more than 1500 rounds of ammo through this gun, and I had exactly 1, count it 1, failure to feed, fire, or eject. The gun was on it’s 700th-ish round, and hadn’t been cleaned and failed to fully chamber a round, a malfunction that was easily fixed by a sharp “whack” to the rear of the slide to seat the bullet. In terms of accuracy, the ParaUSA LTC is far more accurate than I can hold. In fact, once I figured out the Kentucky windage, I was able to easily knock down 8 inch steel plates at 35-40ish yards with the pistol, which was a fun sort of “bang-wait-clang” exercise.

Now, the LTC is designed as a carry gun – as soon as I get my mitts on mine, that’s exactly what’s going to happen to it, is it’s going to end up riding around in a holster with me whenever I put my pants on. I’ll get the adjustable sights lined up for 147 grain hollow points and then we’ll be off to the races with my new gun. It’s light, and even with a full mag will be much, much easier to conceal than my much beloved 92D.

Here’s the part that hurts a bit. I liked the ParaUSA LTC so much that it turned me on to 1911s, and after spending 12 hours in a car with Tamara, I’m now equipped to make a smart decision on what kind of pistol to buy as a starting point to my .45 ACP 1911…which will end up getting used in Custom Defensive Pistol in IDPA and Single Stack Classic in USPSA.

If you were wondering how I felt about the Para LTC – Gun Blog edition, I loved mine. I’m (of course), going to buy it, and can’t wait to get the FFL and all that other stuff squared away so I can get it in my hot little hands. If you’re looking for a Commander sized 1911 but don’t want the whack and roll of a .45, think Para LTC. Seriously, this was a fantastic gun. If you don’t believe me, check out the video Sebastian posted. I’m the only one with an LTC in the video, and you can see it in action at around 2:37 mark. That’s six steel plates, and we had to shoot them in the order 1,6,2,3,4,5. The gun was so fast back on target that I nailed them in about 4 seconds with no misses. My LTC is going to be used as carry gun, and an IDPA and steel gun, and I can’t wait for my first match.

Mossberg Silver Reserve Shotgun 20g 26 inch




moss_silver_reserve.jpg


The Reserve Series was conceived to fill the void recognized in the field and by sport shooting venues around the world - that of an affordable over-and-under. These double-guns share the same classic lines, craftsmanship, and most importantly, the reliability associated with so-called "high-end" over-and-unders, all at a price everyone can live with.

MAXIMUM VERSATILITY
Every 12, 20, and 28 gauge Silver and Onyx ReserveTM Series shotgun is equipped with five interchangeable choke tubes and wrench, providing the ultimate in versatility with lead, steel and other non-toxic loads.

A DISTINCTIVE TOUCH
Rich scroll-work and gold accented hunting scenes decorate the receiver, further distinguishing the Silver ReserveTM from other models costing much more.

At the heart of every Reserve Series over-and-Under is an underlock design, box-lock action for superior strength and low profile. Low profile barrels are positioned lower in the receiver and in closer alignment to the shooter's eyes and hands. So when you shoulder the gun, you'll almost instinctively be right on target!
Precision machining keeps the action completely closed, keeping dirt and other unwanted debris out of the receiver, helping to reduce wear and maintenance.

Manual extractors provide a smooth, effortless operation of the action, while serving as an environmentally friendly way of keeping spent hulls from littering the range or hunting fields.

Simple, reliable, easy to maintain operating system
Highly figured, hand-checkered black walnut stock and schnabel-style forearm
Radiused recoil pad for stable positioning, shouldering and aids in recoil reduction
Ambidextrous thumb-operated top-tang safety with an integrated Barrel selector
Steel receiver with top-tang Action Release Lever
Dual locking lugs
Detailed engraving with gold accented game scenes on Silver Reserve™ models
Wide ventilated rib
Chrome-plated chambers and bores
Set of 5 interchangeable choke tubes, including Improved Cylinder(2), Modified, Improved Modified, and Full, with wrench supplied
Includes free gun lock

Women Buying More Guns in Connecticut

Connecticut residents are arming themselves at quite a clip, with women, in particular, packing heat in growing numbers.
The state issued 7,741 pistol permits from January through May, a 90 percent increase over the same time period in 2008. Nearly 12,000 new permits have been issued so far this year in a state that recently posted one of the lowest gun ownership rates in the country, according a study of 2006 data by the Violence Policy Center, a national gun control advocacy group based in Washington, D.C.
Connecticut gun retailers and educators who run the safety classes required for pistol permit applicants report a surge in first-time gun purchases, particularly by women, who account for up to half of the students taught in Torrington.
"I think that the percentage that you'd see of women coming for the first time has quadrupled," said John Petricone, a staffer at Tactical Arms in Torrington. Pistol safety classes that once drew about nine men for every woman are now evenly split, Petricone said.
Herb Furhman, a retired state trooper who now trains correction officers and operates HF LeanSafety LLC in New Milford, said his private classes are running at capacity, and about a third of his students are female.
"There's more single women now," Furhman said.
"They want to be protected in their home."
Furhman said high-profile crimes, including the Aug. 6 home invasion and rape of a New Milford woman and the notorious 2007 home invasion rape and murder of Dr. William Petit's wife and two daughters in Cheshire, fuel much of the interest in firearms. He recently secured certification to teach an advanced course on personal protection in the home, with a first class coming in October.
Ray Sausanavitch, owner of Wolf's Indoor Range and Shooting Center in Bristol, said his began to jump during the 2008 presidential campaign.
"It's all due to Mr. Obama, our biggest salesman," Susanav­itch said, noting that Obama as a senator and a presidential candidate supported tighter gun control. President Obama has not made any movements so far toward stricter gun con­trol laws.
Still, Susanavitch has no doubt that the administration will make a push to tighten gun laws eventually.
"Whenever you get a threat that something might be taken away, it doesn't matter what it is ... sales of that particular item are going to go up," Susanavitch said. "It's just that simple."
Gun control advocates, who failed to secure legislation this year that would require gun makers to imprint serial numbers on the firing pins of pistols sold in Connecticut, worry the surge in gun ownership will eventually bring tragic consequences.
"We're always concerned that more guns lead to more gun deaths," said Ron Pinciaro, co-director of Connecticut Against Gun Violence, an advocacy group based on Southport.
"From our perspective, if people want to have guns for self-defense or hunting, we're not opposed to that," Pinciaro said. "But we do advise people that a gun in a household is 47 times more likely to be used against another member of the household than it is against an intruder."
That statistic, drawn from an article published in the New England Journal of Medicine, is one Furhman views with skepticism.
"I teach safe, responsible gun ownership, safety being the operative word," Furhman said. The three basic rules: "Aim in safe direction, never put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to shoot, and always keep firearms unloaded."
Ammunition is also flying off the shelves. Susanavitch and other gun retailers said supplies of everything but shotgun ammunition remain short, and pistol ammunition is in particularly short supply.
"We don't get every caliber every week," Susanavitch said. "Everything's back-ordered."
John Napierski, co-owner Jojo's Gun Works, a Southington shop that specializes in high-end custom guns, said strong sales have been fueled by a new customer base.
"It's a lot of women," Napierski said. "Not the usual gun guys."
Tactical Arms staffer Samantha Cavallo, 21, said the store's policy that staff should be armed while on duty is not the only reason she secured her own pistol permit.
"I just want it for my own protection," Cavallo said, citing concern sparked by recent burglaries in Torrington, her hometown. "A lot of my girlfriends and family members they definitely think it's a good thing to have. You've got to be ready, and be prepared."

The fight over the Second Amendment

Sure is scary to consider that some lawmakers want us to register all our guns in a separate and new index, and could be confiscated later under certain pretenses. Our gun ownership rights and our second amendment rights are under attack. Thank goodness for Reps like Adrian Smith in Nebraska, who oppose such daggers in our constitutional hearts.
Monday, August 10, 2009
...the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. -- Amendment II

Those 14 words, perhaps more than any others in the U.S. Constitution, have inspired discussions, arguments and legal debates for years and years.
Now, legislation introduced in January by Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) and lingering in the House Judiciary Committee has stirred up emotions on both sides of the gun control issue and once again brought these words into the spotlight.
Rush's bill, the Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act (H.R. 45), establishes a federal licensing and registration regime under the direction of the U.S. Attorney General and would make it a criminal act not to register as an owner of a firearm.
The bill will also:
· Establish a federal licensing requirement for ownership of handguns and semiautomatic weapons, not including antiques, with application requirements which include a photograph of the gun owner, fingerprinting of the gun owner, a current address, a completed, written firearms safety test, and private mental health records. These licenses must be renewed every five years;
· Create a federal registration database for handguns and semiautomatics to which every new sale or transfer -- including transfers among private individuals -- in America must be reported within 14 days;
· Require a background check to be performed in any transfer of guns and provides penalties of up to two years in jail for failure to comply with any licensing or background check requirements.
· Establish penalties of up to 10 years for parents whose children gain access to their firearms unless they meet certain federally-established requirements.
It should be noted there are already federally required background checks for purchasing weapons. A government database of all gun owners or longer waiting periods will not keep criminals from getting their hands on a gun.
Furthermore, this bill does nothing to curb the criminals who would use handguns to commit a crime. Just the opposite -- it would turn law-abiding citizens into lawbreakers for overlooking one of many forms or address verification.
Any bill which would require photographing and fingerprinting for simply possessing a firearm flies in the face of our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees -- and as the U.S. Supreme Court definitively ruled in District of Columbia v Heller -- the American people have the right to keep and bear arms.
As a member of the National Rifle Association and the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus, I will work with my colleagues in the House of Representatives to promote legislation protecting our constitutional rights and oppose legislation, such as H.R. 45, which restricts such rights.
We need to work harder to ensure the safety of our citizens, but we must do so in a way which protects our Constitutionally-guaranteed rights.
Our country's founding fathers understood how important the principle of the Second Amendment is in ensuring our basic freedoms. They had faith in the citizens of America. We should have the same faith in our fellow countrymen today.

With the 4-position buttstock fully retracted, the Law Enforcement Carbine is less than 30 in in length and weighs only 5.65 lb - ideal for tactical use.

Supreme Court to take up Chicago gun ban

Fifteen months after declaring that Americans have an individual right to keep and bear arms, the US Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to decide an equally important issue – whether that constitutional protection applies not only in federal jurisdictions but in every city, county, and state in the nation.
The case is important not only because it will be a historic development in the interpretation of the Constitution, but also because it will establish basic ground rules for future gun control efforts.
The justices announced Wednesday that they will hear an appeal in McDonald v. City of Chicago challenging a handgun ban in Chicago. Gun owners in the city questioned the constitutionality of the ban, citing the Supreme Court's June 2008 decision, in a case called District of Columbia v. Heller, overturning a similar handgun ban in Washington, D.C.
The same lawyer, Alan Gura of Alexandria, Va., who successfully argued the Heller case at the high court is also set to argue the McDonald case.
An appeals court ruled in the Chicago case that the city's handgun ban did not violate the Constitution because the Supreme Court had not yet declared whether its decision in the Heller case established a fundamental right to guns applicable throughout the US.

While the Colt name is virtually synonymous with handguns, Sam Colt’s initial revolvers off the assembly line were longarms. That’s right. The first production model of any Colt was the No.1 Ring Lever Rifle. The carbine breech (attachable shoulder stocks for handguns) and America’s first slide action rifle were also part of Colt’s on-and-off ventures into longarms. Then in 1963 the AR-15 and M16 .223 automatic rifles “made Colt’s the small-arms sensation of modern warfare”. Their unmatched accuracy, performance and durability are available in their direct descendent, the Colt semiautomatic-only, sporting rifles. They’re ideal for hunting, plinking and competition shooting.

NV Senate candidate Sharron Angle also deserves gun owner support

Sharron Angle - Nevada Senate Candidate - Interesting article - Here is one excerpt:

Do you believe that the Constitution is the "supreme law of the land" and that the Bill of Rights acknowledges our birthrights?

SA: Yes. I believe that the Constitution insures our inalienable rights and that the Bill of Rights is an inseparable component of the Constitution. I have been to court four times in defense of the Constitution. I have been to the Supreme Court of Nevada and to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals as well as the United States Supreme Court defending the Constitution. The Claremont Institute gave me the Reagan Medallion for the 2003 Ronald Reagan Freedom Award for Courageous Client. Dr. John Eastman and Ed Meese were the attorneys for my case, Angle v Guinn, against the Governor of Nevada who sued the Legislature to make us disregard the Constitution and our oath of office to defend the Constitution by raising taxes without the Constitutionally required 2/3 majority vote of the Legislature.
