I am confused here in Middle America. Fly over Country and all, I am sure I am not hip enough to understand. Maybe in California it makes sense to them, because I can't understand anything they do. Eric

rcurtner, you know that is how you get an Internet Stalker, don't you? Looks fantastic!

Yes, this Cold Steel does fit in your pocket. But it is pretty much regulated to BBQ Knife status...the knife equivalent to the comical oversized Hillbilly Cigar popular at Ozark Tourist Traps. Eric

I think that is why I enjoy Will Dabbs MD works. He reports the facts, but adds a "human touch" of humor and personal experiences that so far appears beyond the reach of computers.

Springfield Loaded Lower with a Mil Spec Upper. I just could not warm up to forward cocking serrations, but wanted to have ONE 1911 with an ambi safety in case I ever want to go with a dual gun Galco Shoulder Holster. (hey, I can just about always justify a new 1911 purchase) The other is my...

I always like to support local merchants...and BBQ joints are my favorite way to help the community!

Dang! That does seem like not only a lot but a criminal lot! All I can realistically offer is come to Missouri. You will have a huge property cost advantage.

I used to reply with "You shattered my old record of three years, and she was thin, blonde and her Father owned a liquor store". Which was true, but wife 2.0 has been going strong for 13 years and counting...congrats my friend. And prayers sent!

Covering losses costs money. With materials cost over the past few years (before Mr T got into office, haters) going up, insurance is naturally going to go up. Pro Tip-if your company also writes in California and such nonsense, their rates in not Cali are going to go up too. A company like...

You are a winner Sld. Don't know if you live in a mansion and drive a brand new Mercedes AMG...but to me, you are a winner in the game of Life. Well played.

But my favorite part of the story is that your daughter was at a used book store and thought enough of you to go looking for something you might like that was probably not in a section she was looking. That is AWESOME! A tip of my hat to you Sir. Good parenting is a classic tell of the...

He was an LA Cop in the Gang Unit during the crack bad old days. He is the real deal.

Columbia MO is my hometown, and we never used to have much trouble. Now shootings are common, and it is almost always the under 21 crowd. Kids don't fight with fists anymore. Go straight to guns. Sad. I personally think a significant contribution to this fatalist attitude is Climate Change...

Funny story on that knife since nobody asked. Thru no fault of my own, I was at the 1996 Soldier of Fortune convention and got called up on stage during a knife fighting demonstration. They were asking us to demonstrate blocks, so I did so mechanically and naturally incorporated a strike...

The daily is generally a 1911 of some sort. It changes depending on activity and dress code. But the knife is always the same.

Suarez got me started on the optics on sidearm back in the day. Like in the 90's. He was making slides for Glock 17s, and I put up front money to get him to make 19 length. He got enough pre orders and the rest is history. I have a lot of respect for his knowledge. He was ahead of most of the...

Missouri always has room for a few more gunnies...California Liberals stay put, please!

Great catch on the Beretta. My old college room mate was on the Columbia PD after college and was in on the eval team for the switch over from revolvers. Which meant by extension meant I was on the team. :) First time I got to shoot a high capacity 9 or a double action semi auto. The Beretta...

No experience with an online tailor but keep us posted. Bespoke suits really do make a remarkable difference, and a tailor can really help you conceal a 1911. I am curious as how it works in the "modern age" in which we live.

Shooting is a perishable skill. One could not walk away at the top of their game in their twenties and return in their 30's to the same skill level. So shoot as often as you can. The 44 Magnums get 44 Specials these days, but the .45 1911 is still ok. I always finish the session with at least...
