The Czickness LII.2…..the sunshine and roses version.

It was recently (a few weeks ago now) mentioned which 1911 CM recommended to start a project with, but I can’t remember if it was a SA, Garrison, or what? Can someone enlighten me?

I know he liked the Springfield Range Officer for projects. That's what he used to do a project for me. It's the lower one in the picture.

Is it a problem to take a high end 1911 that you go all out on and give it a ‘red dot’ sight picture?

You mean like a $x000 Nighthawk with an optic?

Plenty fine with me.

Evening all. A million pages behind on here. Tried to keep up. Worked way too hard last week training new hires for my team. Honestly last two weeks. Hope everyone is well and gets to have a short work week and much deserved time off. Picked up one of the cheap p09s from a friend who ordered then thought it was too big for him. Seems like a perfect house gun to me!

The mouse liked my 'Loaded', and so do I !

I bought a Range Officer Target on CMs recommendation, unfortunately they are no longer made. I am sure I am not a good enough shooter to get its full potential.

That one is the last AllenM/Churchmouse collaboration 1911...Allen said it would probably cost $4500 to build it now.

Wow.
You know how when someone comes home and bought a bunch of stuff on sale and they try to convince you they “saved” money?
I wonder if I can tell my wife I bought an airplane ticket and saved a $6500 haul bill to get my truck home from Texas and I can spend that on a gun?

I’d better not.

Well, if you ever want to part with it I bet it wouldn’t be hard! It’s bad for your health to hang on to something that keeps you down!

You are not factoring in how much you saved versus a new truck or even how much you saved buying that used one versus one off a dealer.

Don’t undervalue your “savings”.

Morn'n fellas :bgoOJ:

Morning all...

Way overslept this morning, but it felt pretty good.

 

[Born2vette]

Morning gang!

Man oh man we can be friends.
But not if I want to stay married.

 

[ChrisK]

You always tell the wife how much you paid and just say plus shipping. When asked how much is shipping just say I’m saving more by going and picking it up.

My wife monitors every transaction.

We used to explain and discuss purchases beforehand, then later on in years we did that after a purchase but, now, we just makes sure it is a legit charge and move on.

Marriage is a two way street with the same traffic laws on each side.

EDIT: Like on Friday when I saw $400.02 to "PC+". I asked. She said it was legit. Later I get home and there are three Christmas trees, wreaths and fresh garland on the front lawn. I walked in the house, right past her without speaking, opened the ammo closet and looked at the stack of boxes from AEAmmo that arrived in the last couple weeks and thought "Yep, $400.02 is just fine!".

I like those grips!

Hope Jagee is doing better than I am hunting, have seen nothing and heard no shots for 24 hours. No one at the HNF access since opening morning.
