You, Sir, seem to have a small problem there. I'm not sure quite what it is, but...

 

That is a nice collection.

 

Just need some Glock, Smiths, CZ, Sigs, Rugers, etc. You know, shooting irons. LOL

I thought if I stuck to just colt 1911s it would save money by not buying a lot of guns . It did not work lol

West... I got ta thinkin about your 1911 collection a bit; and lettin my mind wander back to the "old days" when the 1911 wuz first birthed... The 1911 replaced the Colt Single Action Army, which was the first (...and i think greatest...) of the calvary pistols... Lots of folks don't know it; but the 1911 was first and foremost a cavalry weapon... There are lots of old timers from the civil war on who talked about carryin at least 4 loaded pistols on their calvary mounts... If ya do the math on that one; you've got an armored up set plus 5 1/2 reloads.... That's a helluva lot of firepower... Ole Nathan Bedford Forrest or JEB Stuart would be proud of ya...

To my way of thinkin, there's nothin more fearsome than a man on horseback bearin down on ya with a pistol blazin......

 

Keep shootin...

The sad part is that I'm better at buying colts than shooting them . But I'm working on it

The problem is that he needs 2 more to make that bottom row line up properly.  :up:

Somehow, I don't think that will be a problem for him. Probably already has them and just didn't want to appear too Coltish. lol

I would have bad 5 1911's if I didnt sell 3 of them. Learned from my mistake. Now I will diversify them.
