My first C&R purchase

Post by Glocksman »

A Manhurin PP .32ACP from Centerfire systems for $273.38 shipped.

:D

It's in pretty good shape for a 30-40 year old gun.
The only really worn spot is on the front strap where the German police stamped in a number.

I've got some ammo coming in from Midway next week and I'll see how she shoots. :B

Next week the Yugo SKS and Moisin M44 carbine I ordered should arrive. :twisted:

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

Pictures of you holding your gun with your left hand on a bed with towels in the vacinity.

Nah.

The ATF already knows my FFL and phone numbers.
Y'all don't need to know those. :P

That's a table with paper protecting it. That's not a towel either, it's an old sock that I used as a cleaning rag.

I wasn't polishing the other pistol. :P

Looks good! Now, go get you a 1911A1, a Mauser 98k (gotta be German with the WW2 proofmarks ;)), and an '03A3 Springfield.

EDIT: By the way, what are the concealed carry laws like in Indiana?

If you can pass a NICS check, you can get a carry permit for $25 that's good for 4 years. Indiana is a 'shall issue' state

Packing.org info on Indiana.

This gun isn't for carry. I bought it simply because I've always wanted a PPK, and this is the next best thing.

My Glock 19 (w/preban mags) and my Smith .38 Centennial are my carry guns.

Sure, for a while, then the gun explodes.

Hey, in Indiana, you only have to be 18 to get the license, and TN honors their license although you have to be 21 here. I wonder....

That traitorous bitch?

She wants to revoke the whole Constitution and all our Liberties with her anti-gun and pro-DMCA stance.

I believe the Founding Fathers would be quite strongly compelled to execute her by firing squad as an act of moral duty for the safety and liberty of this once-great Republic we call home...

P.S. What kind of stupid moron believes the shit she spews enough to keep reelecting her year after year?

I was kidding. And brother, you are preaching to the choir. BTW, did you know that the Honorable Senator Dianne Feinstein was issued a CCW in 1976? So now I can sleep at night, knowing that my state government will issue to elected politicans, but not us peasants.

I really do wonder when the General Populace will wake up and realize how hard and fast our Constitutional Rights are being violated every day. I also wonder how many millions will be imprisoned or killed in the ensuing Failed Revolution.

Don't get me wrong, I love and respect the ideals the United States used to stand for, but nowadays I barely ever see a shred of evidence that the government is upholding them...

I don't know about Tennessee law, but while Indiana honors all other state permits, they have to be permits issued to people who aren't resident in Indiana.
IC 35-47-2-21
Recognition of retail dealers' licenses and licenses to carry handguns issued by other states
Sec. 21. (a) Retail dealers' licenses issued by other states or foreign countries will not be recognized in Indiana except for sales at wholesale.
(b) Licenses to carry handguns, issued by other states or foreign countries, will be recognized according to the terms thereof but only while the holders are not residents of Indiana.

The point's moot anyway. Indiana doesn't issue non-resident permits unless you live in another state, but work in Indiana.

Nice try, though. :D
