I know nothing about guns, and would never consider owning one, or more, but it looks like a 20 gauge Ithaca Model 37 Featherlight, several decades old.
Just did the count, and at the moment I have 16 handguns and 11 long guns. Everything made between 1900 and 1950, with the exception of a 9MM Calico Liberty I that a customer ordered and never picked up. Sorry to take so long to reply - I just got in. The way it would work is as follows: 1. Buy the gun. The seller will ask for payment and give you contact info. to give to your transfer dealer. 2. Give the contact info to the transfer dealer, who will send the seller a copy of their license. 3. Once payment and license are received, the seller will ship the gun to the transfer dealer. 4. When the transfer dealer receives the gun, they will notify you, and you will arrange to pick it up. Usually, storefronts will tell you to come by whenever they are open, and individuals will have specific hours and might ask that you call in advance. 5. When you go to the dealer to pick up the gun, you will fill out form 4473. You will also need to bring a driver's license. This is what the seller uses to run the background check. 99% of the time, you take 5 minutes to fill out the sheet, the seller runs the background check which takes about another 5 minutes, and you leave with your gun. People do get denied, but I never had anybody get denied that didn't seem to expect it. They can also "delay" the transaction for up to three days. Non US citizens always get delayed 24 hours. I had one guy who was delayed because someone had stolen his identity in the past and another who had a misdemeanor drug arrest 20 years previously in another state. I can think of one instance when the individual didn't right away know why they had been delayed, so again, if it is going to happen you probably should already expect it. Finally, it is my experience that when someone has never bought a gun, they are pretty nervous when they show up, and they usually expect the process to be more arduous that it is, so my only real advice if you chose this route is just to tell the dealer that you've never done it before, and try to relax.
Ooooh........I remember lusting after a M37 English Ultralight back about three decades ago. Never bought one..........regrets.
LOL! :grin: http://thedailywh.at/2012/02/03/are-you-kidding-me-with-this-of-the-day-3/?fb_ref=newpromocopy
Actually at close range, it can be extremely efficient and quiet. 2 pops to the back of the dome. The bullet doesn't exit. It will bounce around in the skull obliterating the brain.
Just because it can kill living things in a perfect scenario doesn't mean it's designed for it or efficient at it. A chainsaw or a piano wire can kill things too, but it's not made for it.
I don't anyone that uses a .22 for anything but killing. I guess some people might consider it a target round only, but it can be very lethal in the right hands. It makes a damn good squirrel gun and can bring down a deer as well.
I have a Ruger New Vaquero .357 I have a double barrel shotgun 12 ga. I'm looking for a 1873 Winchester clone in .38 or .357 as well. I'm also looking for a second Ruger New Vaquero .357
Yeah, I love it. I haven't been able to go in a while, and I miss it. I feel bad borrowing the guns I don't have anymore, and so I'll wait until I complete the set before I go again. It was actually someone on this board who spurred me to follow my interest and check it out.
2. My right arm and my left arm. I'm not a gun guy but I do own a sword, a Qin dynasty jian that I got in China recently. I also have a Chinese spear and some Eskrima fighting sticks.
