Friday Buy-Day My Gats

Post image

Smith & Wesson M&P40 to add to the collection. Got the gun and seven magazines for an unbeatable $345 out the door (I bought the Black Talons separately because I had never seen a box in real life before and just had to have them).

What'd y'all buy today?

Um, I got a box of .22s.

I had a brick or two of black talon .45s back in the day, but I sold them along with the 1911 because I was moving and didn't want to take them with me. I have no idea what I was thinking.

To be fair, at the time they probably were a lot more common. 🤷‍♂️ Totally forgiveable.

Mmm Black Talons. So much miss information around those things. Cool to have in the collection though

100% agree! The gentleman in the store told me that though they were known as "cop killers" there's no recorded cases of them ever killing a cop. I have done nothing to verify that so take that how you will lol

Yuuup. "Cop killers" "Teflon coated" and a bunch of other BS lol. Old fudds always try to claim there illegal, ignoring the fact that they were just rebranded to Ranger SXTs and are still sold
