Generally about the only thing I show off is my Talo exclusives. There is also the Centennial 1911's.

For me its usually my M41 or M46 or Black powder rifles. They seem to be the best of my small fleet.

The Model 27 is pretty. Very few people appreciate the quality I see in th P5C though.

I've got a thing for old guns... One that almost always gets looks at the range A nice Swiss is hard to beat for looks, craftsmanship, and precision. It is a shame such a pretty stock is so dinged up, but I decided a while back to leave it as I got it.

That Swiss is definitely a looker. I'll never forget firing mine for the first time. I was so afraid of that bolt coming straight back and taking off my head. I aimed, moved my head out of the way, and jerked the trigger.

A few of our guys shoot the same rifles here also. They are very pleased with them as they fire extremely well and are quite accurate also.

"Swiss Made?" “It is not generally known that quite a few Swiss companies have watches assembled in China for export to North America, Asia and even Europe, where the brand name is more important than the “Swiss made” label. Such watches may consist of a Chinese case and a Chinese crystal, a Taiwan-made dial and metal bracelet and Japanese hands. If the movement is to be considered Swiss, 51% of its value must be Swiss and at least the last wheel must be added in Switzerland. Swiss watch brands without the “Swiss made” label are usually equipped with a Japanese movement. The “Swiss parts” label means that the movement is assembled in Asia using kits consisting at least partially of Swiss made components.”

I have a very good Bulava pocket watch my employer gave to me for my 25th year with them. After about 7 years I took it in for cleaning and discovered it had a Tag Haur movement in it. The Jeweler told me the movement alone was worth $800.00 wholesale at that time which was around 8 years ago now. I only use that for dressing up with. I have a $550.00 Eagle watch for daily usage.

Blueglass, the original Tag Heuer movement was good stuff, unlike the current Tag Heuer stuff that is like to something the neighbor's dog left on your yard. I wear a Luminox automatic for daily wear and it has more accuracy than my Rolex. I like quality watches more than I like quailty handguns. The accuracy of the handgun depends a lot on the shooter, which is not true with watches. Santa was supposed to bring me a Hublot watch, but since I called him something that identifies as the logo for the Democratic Party, I think I'm only going to get gas for my lawn mower for Christmas.
