No Regular Calibers Allowed...

[HUTCH 7.62]

.25 ACP

[Hunt]

.270 Winchester

LOL! yep, what an odd caliber

A interesting pistol, not rare caliber

Theses pistols started out as 1911 clones for the Spanish Air Force. These are all steel clones (except for the trigger mechanism which is a bit different and no grip safety) were originally chambered in .32acp/7.65. When the Air Force upgraded in the 50's-60's??, InterArms bought them all and referbished them and changed to .380acp/9mmkurts. Star also made and sold new commercial pistols at this time.
So, 90% size 1911 in .380 is fun to shoot and can be reliable with a bit of tinkering.

Another interesting pistol is the Savage 1907.

Very cool looking.
One of the first pistols to have a double stack magazine.

For handguns, 38 Super out of a 1911 is the most "oddball" cartridge I shoot.

For rifles, it's a tie between 6x47 Lapua or 338 Edge. No factory loadings for either.

I have 2 of the Super SMversion with adjustable rear sight. Nice little pistols. Mine have been reliable but I have not really tried them with defense loads, just FMJ. I'd like to find a replacement set of grips for one of them that has very nice (but aggressive) checkered wood grips. The other one has plastic grips with a thumb rest on the left panel.

What's a henway?

Oh, about 4 to 6 pounds.

I don't have many oddballs; .30 Luger is the best I can do I think. 1902 Luger Carbine

[Fatcat]

Colt Government model originally in .38 super. Converted to 9x23 Winchester.
It’s a flat shooter!

These guys have a few different types.

Is this meant for a side mount optic?

Yes.

I shoot and reload for the .22 Remington Centerfire Magnum A.K.A. .22 Jet and the .256 Winchester Magnum. Both based upon the .357 Magnum case. Handguns are the S&W Model 53 and Ruger Hawkeye. PPU makes ammo now for the .22 Jet but the .256 Win Mag is a handloading only proposition and has been for probably 40 years now.

Here are a couple in 38/200
