Winchester Model 70 Heavy Varmint
From the late 90s into about 2005 Winchester sold a heavy barrel varmint/target rifle called the “Heavy Varmint.” These guns were the post 64 push feed action with a heavy barrel and the HS Precision made marksman stock.

Spilborghs Custom Colt
pistol_purview 1967 Colt 1911 by Santa Barbara gunsmith John Spilborghs. Spilborghs immigrated to the US from Belgium in 1967.

USGI M1911A1-Bless The Zoomers
I love millennials and zoomers. I love them so much. Being a M1911 guy, you couldn’t ask for a better class of gun buyers. I love them because they believe internet memes about the 1911 with all of their hearts. They believe how the 1911 is old and obsolete and out-dated and unreliable. They believeContinue reading “USGI M1911A1-Bless The Zoomers”
