The nine works well in short barrels. Better than the .38 Special. But frankly the flimsy clips are are a hard pass for me. Based on my 1917 Smith and Wesson experience.

What happened to families that sent brothers and sons to Korea or Nam? Are the memories that short? Or did public schools erase them? My uncle Bill would not talk about Korea, but the bayonet scar on his face from when a Chicom stumbled into his foxhole spoke volumes to me. And to this day, I...

Does anyone carry a blackjack anymore? Or a Sap?

Well, I am a gentleman...but if anyone gets between me and my chili there is a fight a brewing!

They try and escape and we keep drawing them back in.... I think my Brownings from the 60's are inferior to the current Turks in terms of quality and point ability....Bassbob you care to comment?

Wait, what? Bad Chili? I throw the gauntlet down on that. Bad chili is still one of the best meals in the Bachelor Food Category. The worst chili dish ever beats Yankee Bean Soup all day long!

OMG! There is a packet of masa to be used as a thickener if needed. You don't suppose Shelby intended you to sprinkle it on her....to close up the gap. Ugh.

And thanks. I am tone deaf when it comes to decorating a house...but am pitch perfect when it comes to a Man Cave.

Welcome to my man cave! :)

We think that...in my heart, I think he is still watching and this is just the ticket to bring him out...we miss him!

True story. At the Solder of Fortune Conference I got called up on stage to help demonstrate knife fighting techniques . So the lecture boss told us to walk thru a block...of course, after the block I incorporated a strike, just like my long suffering father taught me. The instructor stopped us...

Am I the only guy trying to figure out what guns I have left in my meager collection after the "Epic Sell Off" to generate enough funds to buy a Tippman Armory Gatling Gun that takes Glock Mags?

Good Lord. Are you sure that is a shotgun? As a gentleman, I was under the impression that shotguns had two barrels. Bass Bob, perhaps a little help here?

Time is the big thing. Everyone is enamored with higher and higher capacity handguns, but honestly in most gunfights a fella runs out of time before he runs out of bullets. Like of often repeated "Better a 5 shot J Frame in the pocket than a $2000 custom 1911 in the safe". Always have a gun...

Hey, wait a minute! No top, windows or heater either! I got ripped off!

And no radio in my Cobra!

I suspect nobody has it in 3D format because it is so easy to get the part from Springfield for us. Simply no market for a 3D printed part when the factory part is so cheap and available. Interesting question though. I was out of the game long before 3D printers were a thing. I wonder if there...

OK, truth be told, I am old now. The Les Baer is a five inch 1911 and heavy. When I carry optic free, it is either a SIG Nightmare Fastback in .357 Sig because I like the caliber or a Scandium S&W Commander size 1911 with an Ed Brown barrel/bushing and otherwise slicked up by Bill Lauthridge of...

In defense of Mas, what is your safety worth? The safety of your family? If the Wilson Combat 1911 gives you an edge, no matter how small, wouldn't you pay it? You are guilty of dereliction of duty if you did anything less than 100% to keep your family safe. Screw it. I am carrying the Les Baer...

Exactly. Get a good trustworthy 1911 Springfield Mil Spec and spend the difference in cash between that and a true custom pistol in ammunition and classes. Future You will thank you.
