Tinker Exchange today. They had at least 18 boxes of 7.62 x .25. I’m not familiar with that caliber but they had plenty, lol.

I didn't actually lay hands on it yet, but I paid for it so technically, it's mine; all mine! With the nasty weather moving in, it looks like it might be a week to 10 days, if not more, before it will be in the hands of my FFL, and very shortly thereafter, in me own grubby mitts.

Anyway, I picked up a very nice (from pics and description) blue Manurhin PPK/S in .22LR. I'm a sucker for anything Walther or Manurhin, PPK or PPK/S, except for the ones that were briefly made by S&W in Houlton, Maine and the new models out of Walther in Ft Smith, Arkansas. These both have a humongous "tang" or beavertail, as we Americans call it. That bulbous, knob-like protuberance ruins the classic lines of this classic pistol as far as I'm concerned. My interest runs to the post-WWII/pre-S&W pistols. I will of course come back here and post pics of this little jewel once I finally get it my possession. In the meantime, you'll just have to look at this artist’s rendition:

Words is, the poor guy's mom was involved in the early research stages for "The Pill". Seems that in some cases, it didn't kill the sperm cell, but it kinda like dented it or something.
