I have a set of sweetheart grips on my Springfield G.I. M1911A1 with Carole Landis on them. When I bought them, I was looking for a picture of a "girl next door" type from the 1940s, and thought she fit the bill! She was an angel who left this earth far too soon!

Damn, I'm gonnna spend all my 2024 gun money in the first month of the year! Just bought this from PSA, a CAR-15 clone... PSA PA-15 11.5" Carbine-Length 5.56 NATO 1/7 Phosphate BTR Classic Stealth Pistol w/ Carry Handle | Palmetto State Armory $499 with free shipping!

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. "Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" And this is what we end up with...

Not just a fighter pilot, but a Top Gun fighter pilot!!! https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/madison-marsh-miss-colorado-may-become-top-gun/ What was Rainman's #1 rule again? I guess the USAF PAO is pushing this!

ADMIN NOTE: Could we please stay somewhat on topic? Thanks! M2

To be fair, I don't think Biden knows where he's at the vast majority of the time! On the other hand, it shows how (un)important Austin is in the current administration!

Always wanted a Walther P1 (P38), so today I picked up this nice, originally unissued Bundeswehr example rated in 'excellent' condition. The previous owner only put about 200 rounds through it. I see a lot similarities to the Beretta 92F (M9), which I don't particularly care for; but the Walther is way cooler in my book!

Maintenance in the old days...

The only Power 5 Florida school that didn’t lose a bowl game this season!!

And for Biff...

Back on topic...

Cue "but the Gators didn't even go to a bowl" response in 3, 2, 1... They won 1 more game than UF while playing a MUCH easier schedule. Yawn. Enjoy!

The P1 will be yet another range toy. The only time I have a manual safety on a carry pistol is when I'm in true Texan mode and wearing a M1911! As for the M9, in my opinion it's a brick of a handgun with poor ergonomics, which is why I hesitate buying a P1! You can really see the similarities in the stills from this video comparing the the Beretta with a P38...

Holy shit, B@iff_T! How about manscaping that profile block a bit! 🤣🤣🤣
