What did you buy yourself today - PART 1

[Gunsnwater]

Woo-Hoo! Finally get to post something other than "parts"!

Ordered last Sunday. Arrived at FFL on Wed, picked it up tonight.

$199.99 S&W M&P Shield 9mm (New - after rebate)

FUCK ITS AWFUL

but I'm starting to fall in love with it



Trop lets you shoot used guns before you buy them, I tested this an an FMK (both were the same price). The FMK wouldn't lock open on an empty mag and had numerous failures to extract in 20 rounds. This thing is a snappy little bugger but man was it fun to shoot, and it just fits my hand so well.

LOL!
Stepped out of the car and did the photoshoot before it even made it into the house!

Thunderstorm has left so now stuff was dry enough to take a picture of today's other gun



A really crude $60 flea market cap lock .44 or .45 caliber. No idea who made it, but it at least sets off caps.

Looks like something carried by Flash Bazbo, Space Explorer!

I'd like a report if you buy.

I'd like a report if you buy.

You know this is the "what did you buy today" thread, right?

[Emptymag]

Buy? Today?

What I bought has a shoulder thing that goes up:



And a sight thing that goes up:



Mine looks the same, but with a wood stock; one of the few guns remaining on the "bucket list":




EDITED to ADD: Photo of actual OOW M1918A3 I purchased; photo hosted courtesy of Postimage:



It came as shown (minus the Krag repro sling) with the OOW bipod, front sight hood, 21 magazines, one six-pouch 12-mag web belt, two three-pouch bandoliers (L&R), spare Royal Typewriter barrel, flash hider, front sight hood, two surplus buffer assemblies, two more surplus bipods, gas piston/op rod and carrier, two operating springs, two sets of FCG parts, (I'm not sure yet what will work in the OOW semi-only receiver), two used bakelite stocks with all the hardware, two sets of takedown pins, a complete rear sight assembly, and one used surplus forend. All for $4K. Deal like that I'd be crazy not to take it.
