Howdy guys, Tyler here, just dropping by to say hello. I'm 21 and from and live in Memphis and enjoy guns, car stereo systems, dogs, and photography.

I frequent thehighroad.org, The Firing Range at somethingawful.com, and glocktalk.com

My current inventory is a Para Warthog, Glock 26, and a old 7mm Mauser

Old guns include

Ruger 10/22

Sigma .380

Sigma sw40ve

Walther PPS

Ruger p95

Beretta p2fs

Taurus 85

Walther PPS

Kel-tec p3at

PA63 (Makarov clone)

Wish I still had em all!

Heres some pics of my current guns

Welcome, TylerC.

That's a heck of an inventory for a 21 yr old.

You must be a heck of a horse trader.

I didn't have that many firearms til I was over thirty and I thought I was buying guns and ammo as hard and fast as I could since I was 21.

What happened to them all?

Hard times, stolen, a trade you could pass up?

Hey Joe, it was a combination of all!

Ruger 10/22-stolen

Sigma .380-sold (these seem a little rare now)

Sigma sw40ve-sold (thankfully!)

Walther PPS-sold to fund other purchases (still in family)

Ruger p95-sold (to big and hunky)

Beretta p2fs-traded (for Warthog)

Taurus 85-traded (for 92fs)

Kel-tec p3at-sold (for Taurus)

PA63 (Makarov clone)-sold (bought it for $55!)

The Glock will be buried with me and the Warthog will probably be traded for either a nice snubbie or a full size 1911, I'll see what my options are once I reach 50 posts!

Welcome nice start on the collection. Better yet are your picture taking skills. No matter how hard I try I just cant seem to do it right. I got three safes full of stuff, just dont want to post crappy pictures. Any pointers?

I just use a good light source, a steady hand, and a Digital camera that cost right over $100. Play around a little bit and you will be suprised with the results, and remember to crop your photos!

Welcome to TGO! :up:

How do you like your Warthog Tyler? You mentioned you're thinging of trading it....just wondering why. I've been looking at an older Para P10-40 (basically an old .40 Warthog) in nice shape.....heard there've been a lot of issues with them though....

I like the Warthog A LOT but my only other gun is my everyday carry Glock 26 which is basically the same size. I either want to go smaller, for deep concealment or maybe get a full size 1911. Suffice to say that I'm now a big 1911 fan.

I have heard of issues with the Warthog, but this one seems just fine. I guess like any gun there are 'bad' ones out there, but this one hasn't given me any issues. Sort of how I had a Kel-tec .380 that never once gave me a problem, but everyone else I talked to had issues.

Anyways, heres a link to the thread if you're interested

For the record, TylerC is cool as hell. I know him indirectly from SomethingAwful and can attest to both his uncanny ability in trading and general good naturedness.
