I dearly miss my P9S....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

It's a lovely gun, but I'm finding the trigger has a VERY light pull after reset, which has surprised me a few times.

Nice, no revolvers. I am a semi auto fan but bought a S&W 686 a few months ago now it always goes to the range with me.

I'm not jealous, no, definitely not jealous... :)

Nice collection you have there. Has that Webley been re-blued and with new bakelite grips or has it been stashed away in cosmoline and wax paper? It looks immaculate. No, definitely not jealous...

it's an Enfield mk2 no star, in 38-200 or more commonly called 38S&W, looks very similar to the older 455's, but is basically a scaled down version. before my research, when I saw the revolver I thought it was odd, but fell in love. I had no idea that they didn't use the 455's in ww2.

webley is next :)

it hasn't been refinished as far as we can tell, its more parkerised. and the grips are wooden, with 4 little notches cut in them top left side. It needed a few springs replacing on the latch, but other than that, it looks great
