I have one that was manufactured at the point of a gun. When the Germans invaded Belgium, they forced the FN plant to manufacture the pistols for them It has swastikas and tangent sights... I've never shot a more accurate 9mm.
Thanks, jj... this is the second time I've had crosshairs in place and heard the "click"... 1st time, I was about 33' up a tree and didn't know my friend had un-loaded the chamber... I did the same thing as I did a few days back, jacked another round into the chamber and boom...
I was in the shooting house on the 31st of Jan. (last day).... a plump doe walked into the food plot and began eating. I'd chambered a round and took the rifle off safety and aimed... got the crosshairs where I wanted them, then squeezed. Click...

These rifles, I found, will shoot and cycle CCI .22lr "Quiet" rounds. That's a plus if you have neighbors... the bullet makes more noise when it hits a squirrel than the rifle report does.
I have friend from High School who became a chemistry professor. He's been teaching now for about 30 years. He commented on social media that anyone who doesn't thing this earth is getting hotter is stupid. I wanted to shoot back at him, but we were best friends back in the day. What I wanted to...
One thing I did that quieted that tick on startup was a can of seafoam in with the oil. I drove it for about 500 miles with that stuff in it, the dropped and changed the oil... no noise for about 15,000... then a retreat...
