Yes, here is one for 8295 kronor or $1069. It's a HK USP C 9 mm (.40 is rare in Sweden):

HK makes good shit but they charge too fucking much, Glocks and Sigs do the job just as well. That said you would probably be quite happy with that HK if you could get it.

My dream is still a Beretta Cheetah 84. It looks so nice. Though I'll probably get some Eastern European illegal shit at most.  :-\

I considered going to UVM... Burlington seems like a really great town.  :agreed:

The 380 doesn't have much power but Beretta does make fine pistols. The Makarov is tough as shit, I like mine it's 14 years old with over 6000 rounds through it and still in great shape.

Have you ever done any target shooting TOW? It is a lot of fun.

Makarovs are pretty common on the black market here. You just have to find a willing dealer.  :angel:

So I've heard... Never given it a try, though, given my complete and utter lack of dexterity.  8)  Does sound fun/intriguing, however.

I have, but not recently.  I'm a pretty decent shot.

I've only been to the SW corner of Colorado Callaway, but that is good country for shooting. My brother used to live in Blanding Utah, I like that high country desert plateau stuff.

As strange as it may seem to you Lit (it is to me) the midwest is actually East of the Mississippi River. Colorado and Utah are more the Intermountain West, but your point is noted.   :indeed:

No, that's not so weird. "Middle Sweden" is pretty down south, while in reality the geographical middle point of Sweden is much more far north.  ;)

Depends on how you decide what the middle point is, there are lots and lots of mathematical ways of doing it.

Anyway, this is really interesting and shows that there are as good as no problems at all with free guns in a homogenous society. Only 2.67% of all crimes against individuals were carried out with guns last year. The most common violence was with bare hands or feet!
