Anyone else here addicted to little guns? I cant get enough, since I took this picture I have bought 3 more. The funny thing is I am a big guy. I have a friend that is bigger than me and he loves them too. He is Samoan an some of his guns dont even fit in his hand!

That is quite an impressive collection! I got a couple small guns, a SP101 and a NAA Mini Revolver. I think I will get the new Ruger LCP when they become available too.

Thanks they are all locked in safes. This is a small portion of my collection. I do love guns.

The Sp101 you see here is 9MM parabellum. I couldn't resist.
That is a wonderful collection you have there. :)
I am impressed that you are able to have so many living where you do.
Little guns, BIG guns. I LOVE Them ALL!

That is what many people think. We can have more guns than people think. That is for sure. There is no limit to the amount you can own.
Nice collection, for sure.

I have a P-11, P3AT, and a P32, I sold the P40 as it was a real handful! I recently got a Ruger LCP and I prefer it because it has a slide lock. at 330 bucks it is pretty affordable and sweet. I shoot it pretty well also.

I have the model 83 not the 82 I am looking for a model 100 to round out the herd. Salinas is sure different than I remember it. It was a sleepy town in the 70's and 80's.:(

IVA,
I like your avitar, thats a cool one.
I'm a big guy, and don't like lil' guns for only one reason, my hands are too big for them.
I remember looking at the Colt 1911 CCO and thinking, why the hell would you want to put a shorter officer's grip on a commander slide!?
I have an Officer's 1911 and only use it for carry purposes, hate the shorter grip,.....
I saw some old Colt and Browning .25 ACP autos at a gun show that looked like they came out of a cracker jack box, now those are some lil' guns, you could fit them in a coin purse!

Yeakh I am a big guy too that never stopped me from liking the little guns. I have a baby browning it is not as small as it looks once in your hands. I will say that the smaller guns get dirty to the point of not working faster than the bigger ones.
Top right for size comparison.

I guess another problem I have is that an unusually large number of compact guns, at least semi-autos are el-cheapos that aren't durable or dependable, I had another compact 45 acp (that will remain nameless) and it was so cheap and unreliable I got rid of it and got the Colt officer's which is a great gun by the way, other than being short in the grip dept, I've actualy thought of building a 1911 with officer's slide on a commander frame.

I just received an e-mail from Karl and George at Makarov.com. After 16 years they have stopped their on-line sales of parts. Many of you may have used them in the past, I have and was always happy with their products and service. I relay this message for your information and a request to anyone that may have the same services or link to a site like Makarov.com. PA831

That is a sweet looking gun. when was it made?

She was made in the mid 70's star and colt were going to have a joint venture that bottomed up and firearms international took then up . Ive read that colt had made some frames and star made all the internals. Shes a real joy to shot and she dont mis a lick. The 380 is pretty nasty round aspecally horndys 380 hollow point. I oridganlly bought her just because she looks like my 1911. It was one of those I got to have things you know. As you can se by the wear on the finishes all my guns are shooters.
where is the 44 derringer? Lol
