THE ONLY Colt 1909 Prototype The Colt Model 1909 is a true unicorn with only 22 ever produced. This pistol is one-of-a-kind prototype that John Moses Browning and four Ordnance officers fired 500 times for the right to make the critical 1909.

The .30-06 Thompson Prototype! It's the only known example of the Thompson Autorifle, and this 17-pound beast enjoys some fascinating modifications.

The 1970s was a changing time for @franksinatra . He’d stopped performing in 1971, tired of singing the same old songs. He didn’t sing in concert at all in 1972. He only sang for three audiences in 1973 though he did release a new album, “Ol Blue Eyes is Back,” late in the year.

For a Metal Gear Solid collection, it doesn't get much more quintessential than @HecklerAndKoch 's classic sniper rifle, the PSG-1. This rare member of the G3 platform saw less than 400 imported stateside, making this modern classic as rare as it is recognizable. Good work,
