Morning Pretty...

Evolution of the 1911

I'll take one of each, please. Even the Para Warthog... I'm especially interested in the Smith & Wesson E-Series commander (#28) - it's newly MA compliant, so I could even test it for them (my first 1911 T&E guys...) :)

As Stretch send when he sent in the link, I'll be in my bunk...

That is all.

  2. What's neat is comparing say the S&W E-series (which is about as high tech and radical, with its external extractor, bob-tail frame, scandium alloy, modern appointments like the swept beavertail and modern low-mount snag-free sights et al) to the old M1911 from the first half of the 20th Century, to a Model A Ford and a SVT Mustang GT500.

    Guns are a VERY mature technology!

  3. Interesting both for what was there, AND for what was NOT there...
