re: 1911 question

Who's he talking too?

Ha! Meant it for Daniel. Posting from my phone. My bad!

This guy's absolute disrespect for his weapon has given me urge to take some new pics of my baby.

New post coming soon.

But afterwards realized that it was a special edition, right?

I can see shooting it if you want to, but carrying it in a holster which will prematurely wear down the finish and exposing it to scrapes, knicks, bumps and gouges is just silly.

But hey... It's your money and your gun. Do what you want with it. But don't be offended if someone calls you a fool for wanting to carry it.

Disrespect? I originally bought the thing to shoot. How is deciding wether or not to shoot it disrespecting it?

I think this is a valid question.

If I just randomly bought a gun for carry and didn't realize it's real value, I'd be a bit shocked after nailing a deal like that as well.

Personally, I don't like owning safe queens. If I buy it, I plan to shoot the frick out of it.

My advice to you - flip that gun and sell it. You can hold on to it as long as you want or sell it not for 2-3x it's original value. I bet you would easily get that much cash.

But besides that, good find!! You scored one hell of a deal.
