JOHNNY WACKO · 07-28-2011, 12:18 PM

Last friday at the sale.

Star in 9mm Largo.Fun gun to shoot.

deputy125 · 07-28-2011, 12:21 PM

those sold like hot cakes back in the 90's if i remember correctly...........and if i remember the only source of ammo back then besides surplus was CCI

JOHNNY WACKO · 07-28-2011, 12:27 PM

We have been getting it from my FFL for $56.00 for 200 rds.

Thats about what G/B is getting but no shipping.1962 and up is the good stuff. Bad primers in the older stuff. Thats what i have learned so far. I have 2 rifles in that cal. Too.Fun guns to plink with.

Machinist · 07-28-2011, 12:34 PM

Nice! Are the rifles the Spanish police carbines? Those looked like fun.

XLCH · 07-28-2011, 12:34 PM

Looks somewhat like a 1911 just lying there.

that's bouund to be better than that aluminum case blazer ammo.........

Machinist · 07-28-2011, 12:42 PM

Except for the pivoting trigger (I think).

JOHNNY WACKO · 07-28-2011, 12:54 PM

I have some of that ammo 1 box. The rifles are the Spanish police Destroyers deputy. I had 2 and sold my friend 1 so he would fund the ammo. He saw this pistol and would not leave with out it. It sure dose look like the 1911.This 1 has the quick detaching slide lever in the right side. I just liked that picture so i used it. It looks mysterious there i think.

deputy125 · 07-28-2011, 01:29 PM

i think i've read somewhere that those largo pistols are popular movie props for handling blanks.........and fake'ing out the audience into thinking they are 45's.........

Bountyhunter · 07-28-2011, 04:07 PM

Could have posted a better pic, Johnny. How many mags you got for it. Are they hard to get?

JOHNNY WACKO · 07-28-2011, 05:52 PM

Only the 1 mag so far BH. Jim took it home before i got any other pictures of it.I'll get some when he comes to shoot it tomorrow.

Machinist · 07-28-2011, 06:02 PM

If you find magazines hard to get you might try ones for .38 Super 1911s. The cartridges are very similar in size.
