  1. The only way to travel.
  2. For whatever its worth, recently picked up one utilizing 9mm Beretta mags. Haven't taken it to the range yet, so I'll have to let you know the results later. And no, I don't have pictures, I can just barely use this forum, let alone a camera and transfering pictures.
  3. All of the above. And if you can read that without a tear or three...and don't feel ashamed of how little we give in return for them; I'm verry sorry for you.
  4. I have a long history of being overly anal about keeping boxes from my diecast purchases and other things, so I can understand your dilemma. Personally, I am blessed to have an attached garage that can't, because of some land issues, be used for vehicles. So I have built cabinets and wall storage to house all my crap...uh, make that important stuff. And yes, I do try to keep all boxes for my gunsin the unlikely event I do sell one.
  5. .. .... I mean come on guys...I know there are no tornado's bearing down on us...but at least take a gander out the window. What??? ...and do something logical andrealistic??? Update... it is now 19 in the middle,middle, down in this little hollow between hills on my street.
  6. Beautiful!!

    Vaquero

    My compliments to the photographer. A great shot. And you got good taste in firearms, too.
  8. A brisk 15 here in the middle, middle part. Bring it on, Al!
  9. Any closer to actual production? Or decisions on caliber? I'd be interested as well.
  10. Sweeet!!!
  11. Congrats! I have a TRP and a Loaded Operator, both great. Would someday like to add the V10 to the family.

    S&W 686 SSR

    It's worse than I thought!!! I was in Eastside today and looked at Rabbi's 686 SSR--it feels better than it looks!! Almost makes me want to trade my Model 66 in on it.
  13. Please keep us posted on the project. I've got a 30 with scratches and wear marks that I had considered refinishing. This looks interesting.
  14. Although we've never met, I'd say you are most definitely a fine example of a "Southern Gentleman"...and I take that from your reputation and your posts. But...we do seem to agree on a lot of things and your perspective matches mine somewhat. So therefore, if we share any resembleance at all..you most certainly are a crumudgeon, if not a curious old relic of days and times gone bye. Just like me!!
  15. Thanks, Lester. I just got off the Kahr site and read the info you posted. Paraphrasing, I'd say the only diff between the two is a miniscule size diff and a weight diff from the stainless frame. Still a really good gun,but as you imply, the pm9 series is probably the better pocket gun. Still the k in a iwb or a small belt slide is comfortable for me. Anyway, thanks again.
  16. I know...multiple posts on the same topic. But that's one beautiful springer! kruncknick knows how to pick'em!
  17. Excellent choice! Love mine, but it's still not broken in well.Tight as a....well, you supply your own metaphor here. But it's a great example of the 1911.
  18. Absolutely Great!!!
  19. I haven't checked the Kahr site for dimensions, but the K series seem to have a longer grip and have, I believe, a 6/7 round mag. I know I have trouble with the 7th round as the mag length would seem to hold more but comfortably holds six and functions well with six. It is quite comfortable to shoot and as accurate as I can be with it. Meaning it shoots better than I do. All in all, I like it, but would like to try the polymer series as well.
  20. I'm about to go off on a slight tangent here, so I got this Kahr K9 stainless a while back. Love the trigger on it. I think it's on a par with the SR9c, maybe even a little better...or softer anyway. But haven't had much range time with it yet, so how do you Kahr guys compare the PM9 to it? I'd welcome any comments. Thanks.
  21. Great! Another 1911 to drool over! I never thought I'd get addicted to them, but it's happened. I guess all these good reports will have me looking again. Congrats on a great buy.

    S&W 686 SSR

    Great looking piece! I'm envious. Seems like I want them all these days.
  23. Great job. You reminded me I need to do someting similar.
  24. Congrats, Johnny. God Bless.
  25. Congratulations, Pop! Just wait til' they're all up and running around, it'll be great fun. I still fondly remember being attacked by seven Husky puppies every time I came thru the door. It was awesome.
