Why is it Mark@Sea has all the neat toys?

He doesn't anymore.

[Moped]

Well you got one of them any way!

The reason I asked was I posted about one of those Systemas over at Randy's Guns a couple of months ago. Which reminds me. I need to go another round to all the gun shops and see what new old items are on the shelves. Man, I'm getting the hankering for a new to me firearm bad!

I'm glad you did the circuit, because I LOVE my 1911!

[Moped]

So that's the one! How does it shoot?

I haven't had a chance to shoot it at the range, but I have hit rotten stumps with it with ease at my friends place. I just put part of a mag through it. I'm hoping to get out and shoot it enough to do a range report in the near future. I'm kind of busy with BS at the moment.

Looks nice. I want to get me hands on a 1911 of me own, one day.

Thanks! I couldn't pass up the deal. This one will not be leaving the family.

[Moped]

I love 1911s! I have an older Springfield Operator in SS. Great shooting pistol!

[Guest SUNTZU]

Now I don't have to listen to Mark make fun of my plastic.

[Moped]

Hey, plastic is good too! I have one of those as well. It's the only pistol I've never traded. I gave it to my wife, so that wouldn't happen. Still get the benefits though. It goes to the range from time to time.

[Guest SUNTZU]

I wear my plastic all the time. It seems to shoot a lot more reliably than many 1911's that I've personally seen.

[Moped]

I've found that 1911s tend to be a little tight out of the box. They need to be broke in. Once they are broke in though, they run fine. However my plastic has always ran flawlessly. Still there is just something about a 1911... Once you go there, it's hard to turn away!

[Guest SUNTZU]

I do find that the Systema just feels right in my hand.

[Moped]

JMB designed it that way. He was one smart cookie!

[Guest SUNTZU]

That's Saint JMB.

[Moped]

Truat! It's funny how all my favorite guns are his designs. I had a Hi-Power that I loved until it got stolen in a burglary. I also have an Auto 5 12 gauge that is a fantastic shotgun. Bit heavy to carry for any length of time, but it's a shooter!!!

I have a copy of the A5. Love it!

just because you now have a real .45 does not mean Mark will stop making fun of your tuppergun.

Your the man with the melted down toaster, so don't talk to me about tupperguns. I know, Mark won't let it go. It was funny the last time at his place when everyone shooting had repeated failures. I didn't fire my Glock, since I had defensive ammo only, but it was funny.

[Moped]

The only time I had a FTF in my Glock, it was my fault. I was shooting reloads and apparently forgot to put some powder in one. Unfortunately the primer wasn't strong enough to push the bullet out the barrel. It hung about 3 inches in. We had to take a long screw driver and hammer it out. I was pretty embarrassed. It was shooting in an IPSC match at the time.

[Guest SUNTZU]

The only failure I've had was when I limp wristed. Granted, I was thinking of Mike.357 at the time, but who wouldn't limp wrist when thinking of that man.

[Garufa]

Was wondering how long it'd take you to catch on.

JMB is b****-slapping you from the beyond.
