Beautiful Collection! But, they look sooooo clean! Do you shoot them, or are you primarily a collector? Not that I have an opinion one way or the other. There are many ways to enjoy firearms. I met a guy once who swore that he entire retirement "fund" was tied up in vintage militaria and firearms collections. His intention was to sell off his collections a bit at a time during his golden years. Never saw the collection and never met the man again, but it was an interesting conversation. |

Hahaha! ![]() That SP101 will soon be moving from your sig to mine!!! ![]() ...and on the topic of zombies, well, all you really need I a good shotty, a reliable pistol or two, and most importantly, a good melée weapon for when you're out of ammo! I have everything except the shotgun. Last edited by SOUTHPAW; 01-22-2010 at 05:37 PM. |

If you have a Marlin room, I'd love to see that! Reminds me of when I was a kid and had my old tape deck with only three tapes to play: AC/DC Highway to Hell, Aerosmith (1), and Van Halen (1). I listened to all three of those over and over and never had a problem picking out which one to listen to. When I got older and CD's came out and I accumulated hundreds of different albums I could never pick out which CD to listen to. I'd spend more time trying to decide what I wanted to hear than actually playing music. I can't imagine what it would be like deciding what guns of yours to take to the range... |

Hey Zealot, If you get to my neck of the woods (Framingham) give me a shout. We can have coffee and take a trip through the room. This goes for anyone else traveling through Ma. Russ

Can I ask you what drew you to Ruger? The only people I've ever met in person who spend big money on guns usually go for something like Purdy shotguns or a collection of Perazzis, that sort of thing.

Marlinspike--To Ans. your question ---About 5 years ago I decided to start a collection and was looking into many Manf. I could see that I could not afford Colt and after some research I picked Ruger it was and still is an afordable gun, also the Co. was started the same year that I was born and the headquarters and factory were somewhat nearby giving me a chance to meet some of the employees. It has been a good choice ---Russ
