New additions

**cruzans** · March 26th, 2011, 03:05 PM

Gunbroker, GunsAmerica and Auctionarms are going to make me go broke - along with Buds and my local gunshop of course ! Two new additions to the growing family. Alway wanted a mac style pistol - was able to pick up a Cobray M12 for $200 with fake suppressor in pretty good shape. Then, have always liked the COP but seeing they are going for $700-$1000 have been just waiting, finally found one under $500 in great shape too ! Off to the range

Anyone got a COP holster lying around that they don't know what to do with

I have two m-11's. Also have a cop. You will have to let me know what you think of them.

Yeah, I've heard that shooting 357's through the COP is "interesting" ! As for the M12, it's in nice shape, but fake can has some nicks and rust spots, was thinking of painting it with heat paint ? Not sure it that is wise ?

Yes. It is a special edition. There was 50 made for each state. That one is for Arkansas. That one cost m 450.00. The blued one cost m 210.00 with five mags.

Kicks like a mule is an understatement for shooting the COP with 357 rounds - ouch ! 38's and 38+p's were fine to shoot and after getting use to the trigger pull on the COP, I became fairly accurate pretty quick, even with the 4 barrel setup - very happy with the little bugger ! The mac 12 was also very nice, no hic ups, and surprisingly accurate. Shot it at 20-25 feet and was able to get a nice 3-4" or so pattern - not bad for a spray gun
