Blue Book says $500 in 100% condition. Those accurate and impressive pistols I have fired are the IMI Desert Eagles. Smooth bore with a rifling twist from the twist of the octagon shaped smooth bore. No kick at all. Good consistent shot groups. Only thing is that they require extremely hot 44 mag. ammo to properly cycle the actions.

Speaking of recoil...... I have a Sako Finbar Deluxe in 375 H&H Magnum that is like taking a shot from Mike Tyson with the 300 grain slugs. I would not be interested in shooting larger without a muzzle break and great recoil pad.

I've always had a soft spot for the Colt Officer's ACP for a pocket gun. Really small and light yet shoots a .45 ACP.

Coyotes are the scurg here in TN. They will attack in groups sometimes and kill pets, and occasionally a calf. Coyotes were hunted down to nil for a reason. Just like Grizzly bears. I like the animals but not when I am on their menu. ;o)

Cutter, Blue Book says $7500 for a Bisley Model SAA in 100% condition. Nice piece!

Mark, you are the first person in about 15 years that I have heard mention a Colt Delta Elite. I have 2 Colt Delta Elite First Editions still new in the display box unfired that I bought at the Rod and Gun Club when I was stationed in Germany 15 or so years ago. Nice looking guns but did not do much as far as collector's value. For that matter, not many guns are good for collector's value.

Ever seen the H&K VP70Z? 19 shotter composite pistol? Looks neat but is a piece of junk. It has not hammer and is double action only which hinders a tight shot group.

No, you would have had to fire it. The firing pin spring is more like the coil springs in the suspension of my Dodge pickup.

Not a good idea on a DAO pistol. H&K discontinued this pistol largely for this reason as well as that it did not sell for crap.

Now here is one you guys may not have seen in awhile, but they are sweet shootin' .45's once you get the sear broken in and get descent magazine clips. AMT Hardballer Longslide. All stainless with Millet target sights. Shoots real accurate and not alot of muzzle flip.

Time to start a new thread. This one is getting way to long, is all over the road as far as subject matter, and takes way to long to load up.
