my thought too.
what other people think does not matter.
if you are happy with your purchase, that is what counts.
people asked me last year why i needed a 45-70 rifle, a 9MM and a pocket derringer.
my answer was because i wanted them.
i now have 2 pocket guns. a 22 magnum, and a .410 shot shell/45 colt long derringer.
the S&W M&P EZ 9MM was because the arthritis is making it hard for me to rack the slide on the 45 ACP.
as for the Henry "Big Boy" 45-70 leger action, well, who does
NOT want a big bore Henry??
first is the 22 mag. is a S&W 351PD.
second up is the Henry "big Boy" 45-70.
third is the Bond Arms "rowdy" derringer.
fourth is the S&W M&P EZ 9MM.
fifth is a S&W 629 44 magnum. one of 750 made.
and in top of the case is a S&W model 19 6 inch barrel 38 special, my first police carry weapon when i joined the police force in 1974.
last one is the S&W 45-06 first edition 45ACP.
