Browning Hi-Power

A single action, all steel 9mm semi automatic pistol with a 13 round magazine. It was the last pistol developed by John M. Browning before his death in 1926. Design and manufacture was taken over by Fabrique Nationale of Belgium and completed in 1935. It is in service with 100 countries at present, from Great Britain to Korea.

The Browning Hi-Power is a fantastic combat pistol.

A double action, stainless steel revolver chambered in .44 Magnum. It replaced the ever-famous Model 29 blue steel revolver. Availible in 3,'' 4,'' 6,'' or 8 3/8'' barrel lengths.

The cop looked the woefully inadequete .38 Special strapped to his hip, shook his head, went to his car, and pulled a 629 from the glove compartment.

.44 Magnum

A handgun cartrige orignially developed for the Smith & Wesson. Model 29 double action revolver. The .44 Mag is the brainchild of pistolero Elmer Keith.
The .44 Magnum was forever immortalized when it was first seen in the Clint Eastwood movie, 'Dirty Harry.' It has become a popular handgun hunting round, and can be found chambered in various handguns, including the Smith & Wesson 629 (and variants), Ruger's Blackhawk, Redhawk, and Super Red Hawk revolvers, and of course the ever popular Israeli Desert Eagle autoloading pistol. While no longer the reining heavyweight champion, it is far more practical than cartridges such as the .454 Casull, .475 Linebaugh, (.50 Action Express), and .500 Smith & Wesson.

Do you feel lucky punk?

AK47

The famous Avtomat Klashnikova Model 1947 (AK47) is, along with it's scores of variants, the most widely used and manufacutured assault rifle in the world. Developed orginally for mobile units of the Russian Army, the AK rifles have found their way into the hands from hundreds of other militaries, as well as terrorist groups. Caliber of the orginal AK47/AKM was 7.62x39mm. The 7.62mm caliber has been phased out in Russia, which now favors the 5.45x39mm, chambered in the AK74.

In the days of the Cold War, the USSR made and distributed countless AK47 assault rifles.
