My dad has the class 3 weapons license, so he bought the suppressor. The gun was $1200 full frame. I only have the one pic of it that i have stored in my computer. I gotta get another digital camera so i can post some more pics of it.
I also have aglock 17 and a Kimber 1911 (which i don't have pics for either)
Here are the pics of my glock and H&K which i think you have seen before....

damn sexy. 1200 full frame looks like the full size usp. any jams or miss fires? i think the compact is 900 but might be wrong about the tactical version. what variant do you have? and how much was the supressor? how quiet is it? enough to shoot in a basement at a target and not desterb others?

Never jammed on me, but i still think my dads SIG fires better. Not sure what the suppressor was, i think somewhere in the ballpark of $300.
Its super quiet with the silencer on, if i fired it in a basement, noone would have a clue one floor up that i fired it.

I got this from the manual.
"Variants 1 and 2 (double action/single action, decocking and safety lever)
Variants 1 (lever on left) and 2 (lever on right) allow the user to carry the pistol in a single-action mode (cocked and locked) with the manual safety engaged. This same pistol, without modification, can be carried in double-action mode, with or without the manual safety engaged, and with the benefit of a decock lever".

Edit: oops forgot the quote marks.

i have a nice little arsenal, my "fun gun" would have to be my bushamaster m4 carbine A3 (red dot and 30 rounders)... you would be so amazed at the guns ive been able to shoot just because of people wanting to shoot my assault rifle at ranges and whatnot. i really want a nice acog for it but they are pricey. you can sort of see it in my avatar...

Cool to see some of your guys' guns. I'll have to post a couple of mine next week maybe. Not too exciting though, just my .357 and a Ruger P345 but they both do shoot pretty nice. My Ruger prefers cheap ammo though. I can buy a pile of .45ACP Wolf and it'll shoot all day. Throw some hollow points in it and it'll jam at least once before I get through the 2nd mag. LOL. I'd probably grab the .357 in case of home defense first anyways.

You can get a carry in cali, its just a PITA to come by. The dumb thing about it is it comes down to the sheriff of your county saying yes or no... and its completely objective and adheres to few standards, so a perfectly law abiding responisble citizen isn't necessarily going to get one.

We also have stupid laws about "assault rifles". I'm not sure why, but they seem to think I could kill more people with an AR-15 than I could with a Springfield M1A1 just 'cause the AR-15 has a pistol grip. Go figure. And of course we have the lameness limitation of no more than a 10 round mag legally, so it takes the fun out of buying some guns like the FN57 or even something as simple as a Berreta 9mm. I looked into buying a Desert Eagle and found out the .50cal is illegal to sell here, but its legal to buy the .44mag version is ok, and then its ok to switch out the parts to change the .44mag to a .50cal. Another winning decision by the law makers. Gun laws suck in Cali... but the weather rocks!
