Yellow er'body.

I just got back from helping my buddy set up a fish tank...I finally got to use all of this useless knowledge to help someone besides myself.

Always good to be the expert at something. NO matter how mundane.

 

[spasmo]

NO.

I drove to South Bend a few weeks ago for a deal. Might as well drive to Canada.

Yes, but in Canada, they at least have Poutine. yummy yummy yummy

My idea of camping is falling asleep on the couch.

I fell the same way. But have done a lot of real camping with my son and the scout troop.

Well this is mine!

That looks like the kind of roughing it I could handle.

I know we usually frown on gun talk in here but help me out. I am thinking about getting a Colt 1911a1 model. Like a stainless gold cup or something. Or a SA but I would want a better one than the base models. But I want one that I could carry concealed comfortably. I have thought about a H&K or Sig in a .45....

I love 1911's. Just feel right to me. I have others but they are my faves. The commander sized is pretty easy for me to carry but I am a pretty big guy.

I am about 6' and 270 currently. Yes I need to lose some weight... quit judging me.

Not passing any judgment here. I got 6" and 30 pounds on ya.

Look at this dude's picture. I think he is nekkid. He is suing England's health services for letting him get fat.

[johnb62]

Not sure what to say to that.

I thought that was his balls in the middle at first...

Let me start out by saying I love the 1911's also! that being said I own two of them! I would not carry one as a EDC because of the fact you have to carry locked and cocked! What I am looking for is a gun that is combat ready! If I pull the trigger it shoots if I don't pull the trigger it would not shoot! Now what fits that bill If I absolutely had to carry a 1911 it would be the Para Ord LDA here is a picture of mine!

It has a double action trigger, down side is it still has a safety on both the slide and on the grip!

What I would want would be an S&W M&P or a Glock, H&K or Sig Khar, those come closer to a true combat gun and would be what I would and do carry, Just my 2 cents worth! When it's life and death Milli seconds count and could make the difference between walking away or being carried away.

Sorry, I'm a bit confused(surprise, surprise)...What about a 1911 isn't "combat ready?"

Couldn't you carry it without the safety on just like any other pistol without a thumb safety?
