Just ordered a pps-43c for myself...and got one for the store as well. Should be a lot of fun with 4-35rd mags to play with and will make a nice companion for my Zastava M57! I just cant wait for it so im selling my Colt Detective Special 3rd generation to get it faster...ohhh well i dont need another conceal gun anyway.

Finished my retro Carbine this evening. It basically looks like below.


I was originally going to do an XM177E2, but going to wait until the pencil barrel on order comes in to get chopped and flashhider pinned.

I tried S&Wshooter, I tried. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=275911040 I don't like bidding against someone with no feedback. The seller also didn't have a fixed shipping price listed. So he very well could have added $10 to $15 over the actual shipping cost. Besides there's a gun show this weekend, might find something there.

$323? I'd definitely have paid that much if I wouldn't have had to bid against someone. I'd probably end up paying something in the area of $450 of I ever found one at a gunshop anyways

If you still want a older doublestack S&W, Predator, there are a bunch of Model 59's on gunbroker for relatively low prices
