Was a Pacific theater weapon modified by my dad's friends during the war. Dad flew (was an officer - and had the sidearm) but during down time on the islands, they searched for Japs. The metal around the grip has pock marked dimples in front and filed slash marks in the back. The solid feel in the hand is incredible. Sweat and humidity not a problem. Get to teach the boy (young man) how to clean it tonight, just as my dad did with me. He likes shooting this and is a good shot. Someday, it will be his.Trialdognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5183651835847025449.post-49237867666182708392011-11-13T20:29:05.118-06:002011-11-13T20:29:05.118-06:00I was hooked after I fired the first shot from my ...I was hooked after I fired the first shot from my dad's 1911.

Head over to Sean linnane, I think it's still up. If not, hit the archives the last coupla days. Nice touch, I almost cried so I immediately did a jigger of Louisiana hot sauce to head that gay shit off. Best hangover cure in the world too!dhanna59noreply@blogger.com
