    If I wasn't saving money for another project that would be something looking into for sure.

    Now this is something I would be interested in. Too bad the better grades are already sold out.

    I wish we would get these surplus ones here in Canada. I would buy one in an instant. I own a Canadian WWII one but it is a safe queen. I would love a "Beater" to take to the club. only ones around here are the commercial ones.

    Note the douchbaggery of DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED STATES....

    Not for sale in MA.
    Not for sale in CA, CT, HI, MD, & NY with Mags.


    At least we can get them in California without the high cap mag. We have tons of 10 rounder Browning mags for sale here. But what is up with Massachusetts? No Pistols at all???? WTF? Finally states that are MORE FUCKED UP than California......

    Yes today, but my history of collecting them they were about the same price. How can that be you ask? Well in 1976 I purchased the Python nib with factory mangaported barrel option. It cost $350. In 2003 I got the High Power from Aim Surplus, it is a Belgian Police Pistol, it cost $350.

    A Python is something every gun nut needs in their collection.

    $350 was very pricey for a handgun in 1976. I bought my first handgun that year, a nib K-38 S&W Combat Masterpiece for $125. One of a handful of firearms I've owned over the decades I wish I still kept.

    Still, it was no Python.
