    Why I Carry with an Empty Chamber — Should You?

    I really enjoy the Doc's articles! In this case ;^) , it's good food for thought. I've trained with the 1911 since I was 21. I use a double stack 9 now, cocked and locked. I just can't trust that faux safety on the trigger of the Glock style guns.

    I don't have that pic, she kept all the photos and wouldn't share when we broke up. She had the pics of the two airplanes I learned to fly in also. Darn

    WWII’s Most Bizarre Battle? Blimp vs. U-Boat

    I had no idea. Thanks for the article. I was lucky enough to find the Goodyear blimp tethered and unattended so I reached under the gondola and lifted it over my head while my girl took the pic. Ha, she thought I was amazing ;^)

    Ukraine’s One-Shot Wonder Weapon: The AT4
