[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2513099, member: 76194"]Nice coins. I personally have a cut off date of 1500AD for my collection, so no guns on any of my coins. In regards to guns, I'm not a big fan of them, so I keep a bare minimum...certainly not more than what I need.

As far as pistols are concerned, only a Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Shield (my concealed carry), a Colt M-1911 (my desk drawer gun at the office for self protection), my Ruger SP 101 revolver (alternative concealed carry), my Beretta Cheetah ( for fun at the range), my Walther PPK (my concealed carry for hot days when I dress down), and a Ruger MK III (for plinking at the range).
