37mm flare launcher. USCG approved so legal to own. Turns out that 37mm flares can look just like fireworks.
 
A new Schiit Gjallarhorn amp to pair with my Saga 2 preamp - nice minimalist nearfield system for the winter, give some of my receivers and integrated amps a rest...
 
I'm addicted to revolvers. I always wanted a Colt Python but the old classics were just too expensive for me.
Now that they've been reissued they're somewhat affordable and I got my eyes on this beauty with a 5" barrel.

think that the only weapons I have touched in my life were two weapons from the world war, which were lying at home in a trunk, in the cellar forgotten since then. They belonged to my grandparents, who like everyone, during the second world war, had armed themselves for "any eventuality". We called the police and they came to collect them. Obviously you can't keep them without a gun license or permit.
 
A trailer and gps computer for my bike.

While I'm concerned about the number of guns in the US being out of control, and I would never buy one, I do share your appreciation for these beautifully made objects.

Do they offer that Colt with a wooden grip?
 
A trailer that you will pull behind your bike, or one to carry your bike?
The former. Making the bike even more useful. Ps - we are talking pedal cycle here.

While the wooden grip is prettier, if you shoot it the other grip is nicer.

Yes, I assumed a proper bicycle... I see lots of people pulling small children around in bike trailers, but not so much for general toting. I wonder how it affects handling?

Three weeks ago after our first rain, (meaning very slippery roads) I was returning home from grocery shopping and had a very heavy load in my rear panniers which I had pushed far astern behind the rear axel to avoid collisions with my large feet... coming around a sharp downhill curve, the rear end decided it was going to lead the show and it broke free and whipped around in front of me. I took one hell of a spill at about 20mph. I dusted off and managed to slowly ride home with my crushed groceries and bent and shredded body.

I have since realigned the panniers and will watch the load limit... a terrifying and painful lesson.
