An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

Colt SAA in .32-20 originally issued to my ancestor as a Texas Ranger. Dates to ca. 1904. 1965 Ruger Single Six Magnum with convertible 22LR cylinder in original box. I am the second owner and this pistol was originally sold new from a downtown Dallas hardware store.
Pass the gravy.

This is my dads .22 pistol that I got last weekend after he pasted away. He told me he made these grips for the pistol after the original ones cracked. He bought it back in 1954 or $20.00. It is H&R Arms pistol.

Great looking pistols!
I'm a sucker for old 22 pistols, especially old High Standard revolvers.

Fantastic looking pistol. Thanks for the dating. S&W I also have a S&W Model 41 from 1979, It's 43 years old and prestine. Bought it from an estate when I got it home I cleaned it and put in the safe haven't shot it yet. Too pretty I guess

Forgot one. Ruger MKI from the early 1980's given to me by my next door neighbor when he was preparing to move into a home permanently. Looks like this pistol was used as a hammer and other tools as well. I just cleaned it up, test fired it, and put it away. No attempt at refinish will take place.
Pass the gravy.

Tbar, Thanks for the link! My Colt Match Target is a 1974 model (that my wife bought out from under me at the local gun shop for an anniversary gift). Color me surprised at the time!
If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.
