About Me

Me.

I'm 18 and I love guns. I like to screencap and have done a ton of it for IMFDB. I love the 1911 series of pistols and I am a Browning enthusiast. My father and I work together in a gunshop, although I don't run a full time job in his shop and am currently unemployed. I know proper stance and combat training with firearms and hope to pursue a future in film making where I can show this off. Michael Mann is my inspiration for gun-accurate film making. I may be young but I show a level of maturity not typically found in teenagers (at least around adults or strangers... I'm only human). I live in New York, a crappy state for firearms lovers. I'm an Independant as I don't neccessarily agree with all Republican or Democratic views, and don't like being judged by either party for my views. So there's my quick description.

-I'm younger than your typical gun nut. Being 15, it is hard to be excepted by older people as a viable source of gun information. I try my hardest to show them wrong. I've had major experiance with firearms, being in a gunsmithing business with my father. It's a small business, but it is also a small New York town. I've been called a redneck before, and I hate it. Liking guns is not a good enough reason for someone to typecast you as one. I'm not a redneck, just a gun nut. I've come a long way in five years of extremely devoted studying from my father, books, the internet, and hands on experiance. I've come a long way for someone with such little money. I've shot around maybe 100 or so firearms, and learned and studied hundreds more. Most of them I can strip and clean by memory. Having my own place to shoot at home helps. Although I've been to a range more than a few times. I envy people like MoviePropMaster2008 for being able to work with movie guns. I wish I could be a movie armorer. Although my main passion is film direction. My dream is to juggle both one day. The chance of this happening is extremely rare but, hey, a guy can dream, can't he?

+Some of my more notable and impressive guns in my collection (which I share with my father until I'm 21.)
+===Hybrid 1911 "Gladys"===
+*My pride and joy, a customized M1911 pistol with a 1913 frame (note extreme lack of finish) and an M1911A1 slide. Fitted with nickel plated three cut compensator, replaces barrel bushing and reduces recoil substantually. The feeding ramp and frame are ground perfect for flawless chambering. This gun may look rough, but it fights tough. I named it "Gladys" because I was going through a ''[[Sin City]]'' phase, and the name stuck. I will eventually reblue it with mil-spec bluing so it looks better. Note the cuts in the mainspring housing, which is an obvious add-on, since the M1911 had a flat backstrap. The cuts are so it can be fitted with a stock. Since I don't have the 16" barrel on me to photgraph right now, I'll avoid adding on the stock so I don't get arrested for having a 5" barrel carbine. :P

+[[Image:GM45M1911A1-2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Left side of "Gladys".]]
+[[Image:GM45M1911A1-3.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The .45 layed out.]]
+[[Image:GM45M1911A1-4.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Close up on the compensator. This isn't some shoddy barrel bushing extension, this actually ''works''.]]
+===M1 Garand===
+*WWII issued [[M1 Garand]], reissued during the Korean war, marking prove it. Fitted with '50s era sling.
+[[Image:100 2842.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M1 Garand rifle with En-Bloc clip, loaded with dummy rounds.]]
+[[Image:100 2843.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The gun is too long for one clear shot! This is the barrel end, note '50s era Korean war sling.]]
+[[Image:100 2844.jpg|thumb|none|500px|The En-bloc clip loaded half way in the Garand.]]
+===Luger P08 "Black Widow"===
+* WWII German [[Luger P08]] pistol 9mm, special edition "Black Widow" model.
+[[Image:100 2822.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Luger P08 "Black Widow" - 9mm.]]
+[[Image:100 2824.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Luger P08 with toggle locked open and magazine removed.]]
+===Nambu Type 14===
+* Japanese [[Nambu Type 14 Pistol]], which I would not fire if you payed me. Very rare though.
+[[Image:100 2827.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Nambu Type 14 pistol with slide locked back on follower.]]
+[[Image:100 2828.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Nambu with magazine removed (slide only locks on follower, no slide lock.)]]
+===M1 Carbine===
+* [[M1 Carbine]] issued in Vietnam with both U.S. markings and Vietcong markings. (couldn't get my foot out of the shot sadly.)
+[[Image:100 2839.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Close up on reciever on M1 Carbine. Note double mag pouch.]]
+[[Image:100 2840.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Barrel shot of M1 Carbine. Note bayonet lug.]]
+[[Image:100 2841.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M1 Carbine with bolt locked and magazine removed.]]
+===Spanish Llama XV "Especial"===
+*Spanish scaled down 1911 copy [[Llama Pistol Series|Llama XV "Especial"]] .22 LR pistol, nickel finish with original grips and lanyard loop.
+[[Image:LLama1.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Llama XV .22 LR pistol (right side)]]
