If you pay close attention in front of the high caliber hot headed blonde there is a rifle.

Nice, the precision bolt large cal market is so hot, everyones making them. Really want the swappable MRAD and would do the Aero bolt built if it could do 338 lapua.

At the SAAMI meeting this Jan at SHOT Show - they were considering making 338 Lapua "inactive". They needed someone to adopt/support it to keep it active, but no one put their hand up. Sounds like Remington might have finally agreed to support it.

Also painted the slide of my Shield Plus SC in addition to adding night sights & a Faxon threaded barrel

Picked up a S&W M&P9 2.0 Compact today. I still hate 3 dot white sights.
I'll try some orange nail polish on the front first. Otherwise, I'll have to get aftermarket sights

If I don't feel like changing sights, I usually take a sharpie to the rear sight and black it out.

I love the S&W M&P series. My duty weapon is a 2.0 full size, but I own the 2.0 Compact and 2.0 Shield. I think they are great guns

I had a few original M&Ps back in the day. Should have just kept them. I also have a Shield Plus SC & Shield Plus 4" PC that is my EDC.

Any K98k collectors on here? I went down the rabbit hole a few years ago and was luckily able to pull myself out. K98k collecting is both extremely expensive and very difficult as the market is riddled with fakes. Finding a period correct, 100% matching and legitimate rifle is a painstaking process. I was lucky to find these two, which I'll never shoot and will likely keep for as long as I can. Even 80 years later, the quality of German craftsmanship is evident all over these rifles.

Top: 1942 byf 42 hh block with a rare walnut stock. Most of these were lost to the Eastern Front, so finding one is a tough ask, even more so in walnut (production had mostly switched to laminate due to cost and durability).
Bottom: 1940 42 code dd block with a red glue laminate stock. This is a duffle cut GI bring back. In order to fit their rifles in their duffle bags, a cut was made on the handguard. This one has been professionally repaired luckily.
