I was comparing the Glock to the 1911. Lot's of ammo is a good thing! That's the downside to my beloved PPK/S...

Ah, okay - my bad! I always thought that accuracy counted for something - now I see it's how cheap things are and whether someone without a clue can work on them......

Carry on - I'll still stick with my 1911, though - I don't need cheap to be good.

With that size fortune he doesn't have to go bang. He just has to fog a mirror.

Well, I'll bet that new young wife of his totes a mirror around to whip it out at every opportunity.

The geezer better watch out.

That's ok, I made a mistake late last night. You need a 3/32 punch to do all pins. No one even noticed. Sandman goofed! 1/8" will knock out every pin on a S&W M&P though. Yeah, I agree. I haven't sold any of my 1911s either. I won't and love them too. I choose BOTH!
