The Bauer .25 ACP (arrived Monday) next to my first wheel gun..a S&W 66-3 .357 magnum 6" brl (arrived today)
The Bauer, from my google-net research on the innernets, appears to be a lower to mid-range S/N in the 32,000 range (they made them between 1971 and 1984, essentially a baby browning knock off), indicates it should be about my graduation year, 1978.:) The Bauer .25 ACP was determined to be UNFIRED after inspection and field strip! The S&W .357 mag was cleaner, less fired than what I expected based on pictures of the auction. Turn lines on the cylinder? I couldn't detect ANY! I couldn't be happier for these two purchases. No buyers remorse! (Pistol for wife's birthday and the magnum because I felt inferior after handling the .25 ACP) A shout out to Paul Notch, of Notch's Iron Works in Puyallup (Right off Canyon Road) that has done seemless transactions for delivery of my last 6 firearms and seemless easy I-594 transitions for a mere $20, pistol or rifle. Thank you Paul Notch!

Gun Porn has everyone's permission! :) I've been stalking Baby B's as well as 1908 Colt Vest .25 ACP for a couple years now. I'm patient. I will add those two some day. :) _________________ "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me."- Hunter S. Thompson |

I came here expecting to see a Luger.
Still wasn't disappointing. _________________ Sign up for Uber using this link and receive a bonus: https://partners.uber.com/i/1p9ey |

Man I thought mine was small. I bought a .32ACP just to have those tiny rounds. Now I want a .25ACP. Thanks for that.
Beauty Revolver as well. VERY NICE PAIR! _________________ Why does the Penguin in Batman sound like a duck? Because the eagle sounds like a hawk. |
