No it's a Blackhawk I bought in about 1992, it has the transfer bar safety. I love it though, my bear gun.Is that a Black hawk before the transfer bar? Back in the seventies, we had them and would only load five, never putting a round directly under the hammer! Great pic, brings back memories. Wish I had never got rid of mine, fantastic handgun! The Black Talons aren't bad either! I'm jealous!

How do you like the Para's? They seem to have a kinda mixed rep from what I've seen.? Also, what would be your choice .38 Super vs 9x23 in a 2011?View attachment 6873575Back row left to right - Les Baer - Colt Commander Wiley Clapp - Wilson Combat CQB - series 70 Colt worked
Front left to right - Para Ordnance P14 - Kimber 3"- Springfield Armory 38 super - Series 70 Colt 9mm
I used 1911s for 30 years, great guns once you get them to run.
How about .38 Super vs .38 SuperComp? If you've had the chance to run the supercomp brass, anyhow.The para was built for me back in the 90s. It doesn't have a factory part in it. I've shot thousands of rounds through it and had one or two failure to feeds, all ammo related, reloads. Shot it in many matches and still do, love the gun! I've heard the factory guns where really problematic and where hard to get running. I'm partial to the super, probably because we ran them in IPSC back in the 80s, loaded them hot to make major and the components where and still are readily available. From what I understand, the 9x23 is really high pressure, you should use small rifle primers, which we did with the hot super loads, but the brass is hard to come by and even factory ammo is scarce. I would stay with the super just for the availability of ammo and components. And to get a 38 super to run reliably is relatively easy. Hope this helps, if you have any questions regarding the super, give me a shout.

It takes a second to get used to but you just use your trigger finger and push down on the bottom of the trigger guard to release the magazine. It drops free with almost zero friction. The slide release is also amazingly light, this is actually my wife’s 9 mm. She likes it just because of the slide release, they are so small on a Glock she hated them and fell in love with the P-30. Of course I bought it when they first came out. LOL. Not cheap...Nice stable Bender. How do you like tha mag release on the H&K? Love the little XDS, a lot of gun in a little package! Have one of the early 45s, surprisingly easy to control and shoot.

Figured since we gotta Bolt rifle and Semi auto picture thread in their respective sections, we ought to have a handgun pic thread to go along with em so..
Carry guns, race guns, hunting guns, old school collectible pieces, etc.. whatever ya got/wanna show off - lets see it! Maybe(hopefully?) if we get enough posts, we can turn this into a sticky..

Here’s my CZ75 SP-01 Shadow that I use for pistol and 2 gun matches... and a couple others.
I picked up two new HK’s and the shop I did the transfer at had a M&P 22 so that came home with me too. I had them out yesterday plus a few other pistols.
HELL YEAH!!!!!!! Bad ass!!!!
I'm showing my wife, she always thought I had a problem, but I only bring one home at a time! Nice flock!

That's my first handgun, a Crossman CO2 .177pistol, circa 1968. It's still a shooter.?????

Hey Wiz, you got some serious hardware! I have a few friends that have some Dan Wesson 1911s, they all swear by them! I've shot them and they're one heck of a gun. What's that slide on the Glock? Is your CZ double action first shot? And if it is, have you gotten use to a double action pull ? All your other guns are striker fired and single action, did it take you long to get used to the CZ? Sorry for all the questions, I'm in the same boat, all my pistols are striker fired and 1911s and always thought about getting a CZ. Kudos on a nice lineup!
