Forget Valentine's Day, it’s 1911 day! On this day John Browning patented the 1911 pistol in of course the year 1911. ;)

My collection of "true" 1911's. (When I say true, I mean in .45 cal, not a fan of calling other caliber guns a 1911 but that's just me and my opinion. lol)

My 1911's are all shooters. My father bought one commemorative edition 1911, which honors his U.S.M.C. battalion from Vietnam, that stays in the case. We make an exception for that one. Even then, I suspect that he may have given in to temptation and fired it on at least a few occasions.

The commemorative Colt is a beautiful piece. I went the police route, rather than the joining the military. I highly doubt that my original Glock 22 will ever be as cool as the Colt.
