This is a Russian Nagant M95 pistol, chambered in 7.62 Nagant. This M95 was originally manufactured in 1914 at the Imperial Tula Arsenal of Peter the Great and went through an arsenal refurbishment at some point. Three primary points make this pistol a rather unique design: 1) it's a seven-shot revolver, 2) the cylinder actually moves forward in the frame when the hammer is cocked, and 3) the original ammo (7.62 Nagant) utilized an extended brass case that actually enters the chamber (as the cylinder moves forward) in order to create a gas seal prior to being fired.

Pretty standard Beretta 92FS, caliber 9mm Parabellum. This is essentially the civilian version of the U.S. Military's M9 sidearm. We would have stuck with the .45 if it weren't for stupid NATO.

This is a really nice Beretta Cougar in .40 S&W. The stainless steel INOX finish is a nice touch. Berettas aren't typically cheap, but you get exactly what you pay for. This one was definitely worth every penny. :)

A neat little pistol using a roller-lock system. Originally built in 1953, this one was refurbed in 1987 and still looks new. Caliber 7.62x25 Tokarev.

This HK USP Compact is chambered in 9mm. I was looking for a new carry piece and was originally planning to buy something in .40 S&W or .45 ACP. I ended up getting a great deal on this brand new HK USP Compact. While I at first had some reservations about the 9mm chambering, I've found that overall this pistol is perfect in every way -- feels like it was made for my hand, light recoil, easy to keep on target, admirably accurate out to 50 yards, holds 13+1 rounds of ammo (128 gr. Federal Hydra-Shoks in this case), it's comfortable enough to carry concealed all day long... and it's an HK! Glocks are nice and all... so are Volkwagens. But why drive a VW when you got a killer deal on a BMW? :)
