* Mr. "I Hate Me Some Ambi Thumb Safeties" now gets to install one on her OACP and on the house GM.  She shoots better lefty, it seems and it looks like the manual of arms will be easier, as she can use her index finger on the mag release.  Oh, and pass the crow...I like mine med rare.


Thread Drift:
Wilson Bullet Proof Ambi Safety.

As a southpaw that likes 1911's I have gone through about 4 or 5 different designs.  I've only broken 2 so far. ;)  Ones that are retained by the grip panal suck.  I have a couple of the retained by sear pin type on my RIA's and they work well, but the tonuge and groove loosens up.  I put one of the Wilson's on my Dan Wesson. It's head and shoulders the best design out there.  The opposing arms on the axle are almost a press fit to squeeze in, the lock tighted screw and hammer pin retain the right side safety, and allows for a positive stop on the down stroke to stop wear on the axle joint.  It ain't cheap, but I wouldn't put on any other type any more.

On the brighter side, the gangs aren't modeled after Vikings or Mongols.

That hasn't been for lack of trying.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Too many times also the victims and witnesses don't want to cooperate.  I would say, "Oh you know who shot you but won't tell me, then no hospital for you."

Take the damn animals to the nearest vet and let them deal with them.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

What makes you think that DVMs deserve that?
"Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own governors, must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives. A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy or perhaps both"

My cat said so,  every time he tried to lick his junk and realized it wasn't there anymore.
