Good day at a gun auction yesterday.

I won the bidding on two pistols. First was a Beretta model 71 Jaguar .22 (yes, has the Jaguar name in left grip). The second was a S&W 469, black steel frame 9mm. Less than $400 on the 71, less than $300 on the Smith.

The Beretta looks unfired, the 469 is almost as nice. I can’t pick them up until Thursday. I’ll post a pic after that.

Ya done good

Cool! On the Beretta, what length barrel and how many mags? I scored an unfired 6" version from TGS for $399. Couldn't believe nobody had jumped on it.

This one is the short barrel version. It has Only one mag, but I have three or four extras already for a 71 that I shoot suppressed.

My 1959 Jaguar is a great shooter. Pawn shop find with some finish wear ( don’t care bought as a shooter!) for $250 out the door. Spent almost as much to end up with 5 spare magazines ( aftermarket came with the gun, 2 more after market and 3 original beretta magazines) I think all the mags ran me around $200!

I owned a couple of Beretta Jaguar .22lr with push button safety. I found the Jaguar to be the only .22lr semi auto that would never choke on ammo.

They loved CCI Stinger.

The 469 has a steel frame?

I was able to pick up the pistols sooner..... Here is a pic. And my bad, the 469 is an aluminum frame. I may order some wood grips for the 71 from grips4u and keep the original plastic grips in a safe place.
