This is Alex from Patriot Pawn and Gun in Star, Idaho (near Boise, Idaho).

Hope you all had a great Christmas. We did a little R&D yesterday and test-fired some of our current inventory.

One of the firearms we test-fired was the Desert Eagle 50 cal (50 AE) pistol developed by Magnum Research and manufactured by IMI. This is the “big dog”…the one that’s famous. It has a gas operated piston in a freakin’ hand gun (technology normally reserved for rifle platforms), which allows it to shoot a powerful and very large caliber round out of a semi-auto pistol platform.

Here’s what it looks and sounds like. The Deagle featured in the video is currently on sale at Patriot Pawn and Gun, in excellent used condition, for $1199.00.

We are selling a Husqvarna Model 1887 Officer’s revolver.  This is a beautiful piece of history as it is a Swedish Nagant.  From what research I’ve done the best I can tell is that this revolver was made in 1901.  If that is the case it is possible this revolver saw service in both WWI and WWII. The serial numbers on the barrel, keeper, frame and trigger is 9337.  On the cylinder the number is 665.  Stamped on the right side of the gun is L No 6943; which my understanding is that is its unit number.  This revolver is chambered in 7.65 and the bluing on this pistol is in excellent condition.   The grips are the original wood grips completely intact with well defined checkering.

Please come out to Homedale and see this pistol.

For those customers who order firearms online, or have moved to Idaho from another state, we can handle the transfer of your firearm.  It is a very simple process.  The first thing that needs to happen is get in contact with the shop that is sending your gun, ask them for their fax number or email address.  Then give us a call at either one of our stores in Star or Homedale.  We will then fax our Federal Firearms License (known as an FFL) to them.  Next, they will ship the firearm to us.  Be sure to have them include your name and phone number in the package, that way we know who to call when it gets here.  Once it is here we will give you a call, and by law, we have to have you fill out an ATF form known as a 4473.  With this form we call into the FBI to do a quick background check (it is just a background check, not a gun registration).  If they give you the thumbs up, then you get to walk out with the gun.  The process take 5 – 10 minutes.  There is no waiting period here in Idaho. (We are not the People’s Republic of California).  We have one of the lowest rates in the Treasure Valley for a gun transfer.  We charge only $20.00 for the transfer.

This is one of the most collectible guns we have in our shop.  It is a-made-in 1900 DWM American Eagle Luger.  What gives this away as a 1900 Luger is that the lugs on the slide are hollowed out, and the shape of the frame.  Luger made this gun for the American commercial market before the wars.  The Luger was in competition against the Browning 1911 as a military side arm.  History tells the rest of the story as to who one that competition.  It is chambered in 30 cal (7.65 MM). This is a real niece piece as all of the numbers on the small parts match the gun’s serial number, including the numbers on the pistol grips.  This pistol includes two magazines, one with the original wood floor plate. The other magazine does have a wood floor plate, but it looks like it was a hand carved replacement.  Included with this pistol is a period correct 1909 Portuguese M-2 Army holster, (or 1909 Manuel II).  The holster is stamped “AE”  Which stands for “Arsenal de Exercito”.  Come and see this fine piece.  We are asking only $1999.00 for such a fine piece of history.
