Extra batteries for my immobilizer and alarm. My overide alarm switch doesnt work and once my battery died in so I had to call someone to bring me a battery. Not a good situation with the alarm sounding and not much I can do but hit the kill battery switch-another added safety device-and wait for a battery to arrive.

Andreas,

It is my old HK94 with a dummy supressor tube, 5 x 30 round H&K mag loaded to 29 rounds (Never fully load up the magazine), so 145 round ready to go.

Actually I took this picture as a joke when I was in Georgia, as to compete with all the rednecks with gun racks in their truck.

I have since sold the gun to a friend for $3500, with all the magazines.

Robin,

Verrrrry cool.

Andreas,

One of my clients in upper Harford County has thre AR-15's, various HK's, an Uzi and a few others that I can't name but was quite impressed by. He's offered to let me shoot them, once he finds a suitable range or befriends one of the farmers up there who'll let us shoot butane cooking fuel cans. Wanna come? All I can supply is my piddly Glock .45 and Mossberg shotgun. I can lend you my Crosman BB gun.

My carry weapon alternates between a SIG P220, P229 and H&K P7. My 1911 should arrive any day now. Other than that, a cell phone, spare DME relay and belts.

Mines the same more or less.

BTW-What happens if you disconnect the car battery while the immobilizer is in force and the alarm is sounding? I think I could replace the FOB battery better if not while alarm is blaring- although it would be a good test of concentration.

When I was living in FL I had a CCW, and the H&K P7 M8 was my choice, safest gun in the world. Of course it is German made!

I started out with a 1911 .45 which I turned into a IPSC race gun, sort of like all the mods on a car but just much less expensive. The trigger pull is rigged to a 3lb pull with the cut sear, kings guide rod, Ed brown beaver tail, S&A mag well, I cut the checkering by hand, titanum trigger, firing pin, Kings compensator, the whole 9 yard. The guide rod spring is modified to handle one particular round of ammo, which makes highly unreliable for self defence..... Sort of like modding a street car to a point of not streetable anymore... Funny similiarities.

I have since lost interest in all firearm/rifle shooting, now only do skeet.

Robin, CA's insane gun laws are the primary reason why I can never join you out there. I want out of VA, but will have to go to AZ or NV to have the car and gun culture I want all in one place.

It shuts everthing down-kill switch is the key. Without it, your patiencem drys up quickly. It happened to me 2x and glad it wasnt like 2am in the morning but rather once at a bank and the other time at car wash. Also, keep a very small phillips screw driver to get in immobilize when you battery is dead.
