Not talking antiques, or zip guns you bought from Texas97, but oddball stuff that most don't own.

I have a G3 Glock 31C, so it's a factory compensated .357 Sig. It ain't anything super special as far as a shooter goes, but I had to have it.
 
I live in the g19 or 44 blackhawk land. Don't see many tiny 45's

Stupid thing shoots better than it should. Everything I read says the officer size guns are picky. This one doesn't seen to care.
 
The other odd one. Shoots softer than it should. M69 2 3/4" 44mag in some shaved x frame grips

The other is the updated version. Always wanted the 357 sig version but haven't bought one yet.

Remington 51 .380 (although some may consider this an antique, I don't circa 1918*1926)
Many considered this design superior to the Colt 1911, although politics prevented the Navy from adopting a .45 version.

Most unusual pistols are probably a toss up between my IMI 44 mag desert eagle, FN5.7, or my East German Makarov.

By fare the rarest pistol I have is a Sig Mosquito that actually works and cycles.
 
or maybe my 2nd Gen Colt SAA with ivory grips. but i dont have a picture of that handy.

I dunno, I feel my IMI .44 DE (MkVII) is actually not all that unusual (the most unusual aspect would be that it's NOT chambered in .50 AE). Seems to be more of a source of mockery... :flipoff2:

If I were to label a pistol as unusual it would be my H&R Sportsmen (?) 9 rnd .22lr revolver. It is unusual in the fact that the trigger pull is just shy of 100# in single action. :laughing:
 
Detonics Combat Master .45ACP, Savage 1907 in .32ACP, and an NAA .32NAA Guardian "my Pocket Nuclear Device".
 
Colt officers 45 in stainless or sig p245.

Gotta pic?
Here's mine at top. With my other submission for odd/unusual guns. My 1908 Colt in 25 ACP with a tape measure for size comparison.

this guy shows up online from time to time
built it when I was too young to own it rofl

also got a tt33 in 9x25 dillon that's been converted over to a rampy system to tilt the barrel instead of a normal toggle link, been meaning to figure out a compensator for that guy for the last decade or so, slide velocity is absolutely retarded
 
I've got a styer and an FN57. They can be ordered anywhere though so I don't think they are abnormal.

I've also got a Smith-Wesson k38 masterpiece and a 1st generation glock 17.

I need to do some research on the glock, my grandfather bought it in the early 1980s when he was a night guard at Indian point. It's probably one of the first glocks imported into the country.

I really like my L9A1.
Also, other piece that’s a little odd is my Star BM in 9mm
 
I had a PSL pistol I built. 7" barrel and 7.62x54R. Almost cost me my fingers. But the fireball and report was something I'll never forget:dustin:
Because it blew up, or your fingers slipped in front of the muzzle?
