Dean Martin said he didn't have a Fairy Godmother, but he had an Uncle they kept a close eye on.....

9 mm 1911's are notoriously picky. Wilson has done a lot of work to get the mags reliable...can you verify they are the latest type mag that have received all the benefits? I bought one of every "premium" 9 mm mag that MidwayUSA carried to try. They all ran great in my 1990's era Colt 1911 9 mm.

Most people overlook my favorite aspect about bottle neck cartridges...with that shape, the .357 Sig just about HAS to feed. Since reliability is perhaps the number one factor in a defensive firearm, the .357 Sig should be way more popular.

I dig that Galaxy! Makes me want to take a road trip!

Back in the day, I had some furniture for sale. So this girl shows up to buy it, and I am cooking. She smells it and says what brand of sauce is that? Brand, I said. My mother would come out of her grave if I was using canned sauce, and she is not even dead yet! Anyway, I agreed to cook for her...

Not an operator. But on a sales call, the client sees a Rolex and he understands this cat has money. I sold my vintage Rolex GMT for ten large...to chunk off my house. It was worth it.

Well, I got into it right and it is way above me...but folks see it on my wrist and don't know it, which was advantageous when I was a working man. It left me along with most of the gun collection when Biden got elected. My wife and I sat down knowing he was going to run the economy into a...

I must admit, the thing is HUGE. But I always shot it remarkably well, and it was confidence inspiring because of that. A lot to try and hide, but as a house gun? You bet!

Brilliant. Clearly, a man that has been married a long time!

I was perfectly happy with my red dots/reticules till one of my shooting buddies showed up at the range with a green dot. Now I am at risk for a divorce telling my wife I have to replace all my existing optics.....

I kinda feel sorry for the Late Night Hosts. They did what they were told by the network, and hemorrhaged cash doing it. The Network Boys thought it was worth the money, low ratings be damned. Then when they figured out they were not reaching the youth vote like they thought, all these late...

It was a small car for sure. Here it is on Spring Break 1987. Schedules being what they are, I had fallen behind and it was still under primer. Still, the draw of hitting the beach in Texas in a Lotus was too strong, so we took it anyway. Note to self: when trying to pick up girls, you and your...

This 68 LeMans convertible had a date with a GTO hood to make a head turning car you could still beat on since GTO's were starting to climb in value by the late 80's.

Bikes were easier to store, so they tended to multiply even faster than the cars. Mostly Triumphs and Nortons with a smattering of Japanese Sport Bikes. When I bought my first house, it was brand new and I only had a bed and a desk furniture wise. The people at my office wanted me to have them...

The external safety was the thing for me. Back when I started to carry a Trijicon, Suarez was making slides for the Glock. I reluctantly gave up my 1911 for the advantages of the optic. Years later, I switched to the SIG 365 XL because it was offered with an optics cut and a manual safety. I...

Javbike, with 60 in the rear view mirror I am down to the Backdraft Cobra and the '73 Four speed L-82 Corvette shown at the left in my avatar. Should have kept everything, but who has the room? I have only listed two cars for sale over the years. Everything else has gone away because I was out...

I have heard the TPH was finicky. CCI plated Mini Mags seem to help. They seem to dislike the bulk lead ammo. It has not cooled my desire to own one!

Nice! I always thought the PP series was proportioned just right. I get the PPK, but a long grip and a short slide PPK/s didn't make any sense to me. The grip is the hard part to hide, so short grip and longer slide make sense to me but not the other way around. Nice TPH too...I have always...

Yeah Corvettes have long been a problem with me. Here is my 62 with the Thunderbird in the background. And my Camaro. I told you I was without adult supervision and with a suit and tie job the cars came easy!

It was a highway cruisier...dwarfed my MGB! Actually, I think it was about as long as my Jeep truck.....
