Nice collection...Ok, correct me if I'm wrong: The one on the left is a Bersa ultra compact 13+1 in 9mm, and the one on the right...eh....hard to tell, but I'm going with Browning or CZ also in 9mm...
It's also nice to see more folks into Ham...My friend just got her extra class....I really need to get off my duff and do the same.
You are correct, the pistol on the left is a Ultra Compact Pro which is a fantastic sidearm I must add! And that old thing on the right was my Dad's Browning Hi-Power, it is quite old and has many thousands if not millions of rounds fired through it and it has never failed not once and is a tack driver!!
I have many more firearms, those were just the two closesest to me for my quick pic. I got a few more lights too, and I had to throw in my good ol' Spyderco I carry everywhere.
Me and my wife both love to shoot and Ham radio is also great fun!
Welcome to BLF Lawnmowerman! Damn fine collection.... It looks like you found a couple of models you're fond of and stuck with it. That's never a bad thing...
Thanks. Funny you mentioned the people because they kept walking and driving past me wondering what the hell I was doing. They just kept circling around me over and over trying to get a better look.
About the lantern attachment: just remove the bezel and screw in the lantern. I've used it on the patio at night with friends while drinking beers and it isn't all that bright but does an ok job I guess. It does impress my friends though.
As for camping use, it should work just fine in and around the tent or even using it around the campground. The cool thing is that you just unscrew the lantern and you have a regular flashlight. I can't wait to see how much brighter it is when my XML gets here.
