Robocop called, he wants to know how you nicked it from out of his thighholster.

Outstanding job, guys. This is my newest favorite pistol, I just got one a few weeks ago, and I appreciate your effort on this one, and all the shows.

Great Video, thank you! I'm always waiting for the Austrian stuff since, well, I'm Austrian ^^. But is there a possibility that your M12 is a bit worn inside or there were differences in the safety? If I put the safety on on mine with the hammer down, there is no way to push it forward to strike the firing pin, I'm pretty sure it would also prevent firing if it would fall on the hammer. It's a 1918 serial number with austrian army acceptance mark.

Great episode. Congratulations on the 50th and best so far. Great job ...... and I loved Mae's laugh.

Back in the early 1980's, I picked up a case of the M1911 Chilean pistols, with a wooden case of the 2-pack stripper clipped cartridges.

I discribed them to people as looking like the pistols used by the 'Beagle Boys' when the always tried to rob Scrooge McDuck and his Money Bin (Disney comics).

BTW, the (10 gun) case, with the crate of ammo, cost me close to $300 Canadian with tax. But since they were three digit s/n, I splurged. 😉
