Whatcha got for pistols

I don't have pictures of most of them but I'll list what I can remember. 1 stainless steel Contender with 5 or 6 barrels in various calibers, plus a chamber adapter to shoot .22 Long Rifle in my .223 Remington barrel. 3 Para-Ordnance double-column .45s, all in different sizes. 1 is an LDA. 2 Ruger .22 pistols, a Mark II Target and a 22/45. 1 75th Anniversary Walther PPK. 1 Ruger LCP. 1 NAA Mini .22 LR/Magnum convertible. I also have a Mech-Tech Carbine Conversion Unit for the full-size Para .45.
It seems like I'm forgetting something but that might be all. My favorite revolver was a Dan Wesson .357 Magnum I got from my dad but no longer have. I took off the 8 inch barrel and put on a 4 inch barrel with a muzzle brake that added about an inch and a half to it. I had a Colt series 80 .45 but sold it to a friend sometime after I built my Para-Ordnance 13+1 from an aluminum frame kit they sold back in 1988. It has mostly Colt Series 80 parts and I have 15 round and 20 round mags for it that also fit the 2 smaller Paras. After 29 years the old gun rattles like a maraca but still shoots.
I also have a pistol permit for my Ruger 10/22 rifle with a folding stock. With the stock folded it's less than 30 inches long which is considered a pistol in Michigan and the pistol permit is required to own it. I also used to have a short-barreled 20 Gauge shotgun with a pistol grip on it that was just barely legal and had a pistol permit for it too.

I don't have a lot of pics of mine as well but here goes..Taurus 605 SS 357, Mackarov 918, Ruger mk III, Springfield XD 9mm, Ruger .380, also two Olympic match air pistols. Also a variety of rifles and shotguns. And no I don't need a security system, every one in my area has a shooting range in their backyard and we watch each others places.

The Mark II Target with 6&7/8 inch barrel was my dad's gun. The first shot I ever fired out of it killed a red squirrel that was way up a pine tree. If you aren't familiar with red squirrels they're small like chipmunks and nothing like the common fox squirrels. I've since put a Houge target grip with thumb shelf on it. Ruger MK II / MK III Rubber grip w/Right Hand Thumb Rest Black | Hogue Inc.

We have some red squirrels around here as well, at least we still have some left! They are destructive creatures and even though small they kill off the fox squirrels by getting into a fight and biting off the fox squirrels genitals so they cant reproduce...yes that would be one heck of a fight!! I have some friends that have a place to shoot them with their rimfire rifles and I have been invited along on a few occasions. Now I hunt with a .22 cal air rifle and we bet lunch on who gets the most. I have never had to but lunch yet, probably why the invites are getting fewer, but the air rifle makes little noise compared to the rimfire so I normally get follow up shots if I miss where he doesn't...
