He's currently working on a somewhat fugly 1911 I picked up VERY cheap and is working on making it a reliable carry gun. He says I'll be happy when he's done, I'm inclined to believe him.RevGreghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11627218929198779685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-30399997045537387292011-11-02T11:56:27.868-04:002011-11-02T11:56:27.868-04:00That is nice.

I've come to appreciate more the dark ones.<br /><br />Especially after my cover jacket flew open in a breeze exposing my shiny, stainless steel OCP.
