Friday Gun Pr0n #215

Today's gun picture comes to us from the 2011 NRA Convention (finishing the trend of this week). Perusing the booth of the good folks at Kahr Arms, there was a gentleman there from American Legacy Firearms. They have a series of custom engraved AO1911s celebrating the 100th anniversary of the 1911, with 100 engraved pistols per state. They are definitive works of art:

The art work includes the likeness of John Moses Browning (PBUH) under the barrel, grips with the state name and number in series on one side and the Iwo Jima flag raising on the other, and a depiction of the wars in which the 1911 has fought. It's an impressive bit of engraving, and makes for a truly unique anniversary 1911.

I'm sorely tempted to get one of the Massachusetts ones just out of spite...

That is all.
