Thanks for the kind words. I must admit that prop photography is sort of a weak link of mine and my friend helped with most of the setup and arranging. Regardless, it was a lot of fun.

We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Can't figure out if it's my lack of any real photography skills or the camera itself, but my pictures seem lacking. Oh well, here are my 2 babies. My Mossberg 500 and my Springfield XDm40.

The background could very well be the problem. Shemaghs have a lot going on, which is part of why I like the looks. Maybe I'll do it on a solid background for my next pictures when I get a new gun.

Count me in!
Jak, watch the edges of your frame too. That last picture would be better had the pistol grip and barrel not been cutout of the frame. The first picture is suffering this slightly too (rear sight).

Well, I upgraded since my last post a few weeks ago on this thread.
Proud owner of a new (well, was until Saturday when I put 250 rounds down her), XD-45 with thumb safety.
I tell you what, this thing is a tack driver and kicks so much smoother compared to my xd-40sc.
That and Icarry 13 in the mag +1 in the pipe +13 more in another mag... All 230gr +P HST's.

I thought that it would look better than just open and empty. Kind of like posing as model. Also, with my pistol being emptied for the picture, it was the only thing left for home protection during the setup and picture taking.

Hey, I am new to the forum, but I was reading this one and enjoying the pictures. I am a professional photographer and if some of you are really serious about learning a little more about taking some nice pictures of your guns I would be more than happy to teach a small class on basic studio photography.
I don't have to many gun shots up here at the moment, but I do have a few up.

I am by no means an artist so I just took some pics of my Metro Arms American Classic commander
And here she is with her new handmade grips.

Thank God, no. (Perhaps orange duct tape would be better...)

I have a book just like that one! I bet it has different pictures in it though.

Haha I bet it does too. Those were good times. I still get chills when I see my DI's pictures staring at me.

Here is my AR and Glock22
Here is my Taurus Model 82 - It has a hogue grip on it now
Can you advise on that Taurus 82, what holster you use (if any) and what you like or don't like about it? I am in the market for such a holster for that model. Any other info on that gun as to reliability, etc., would be appreciated here or PM me. Thanks. OVJ

I actually do not have a decent holster for the model. I have carried in a nylon holster though. I have been planning on getting a bianchi thumbbreak for it. I cannot say anything bad about it other than the factory grips, I replaced mine with a set of hogue grips.
