1911 Anniversary
1911 Anniversary
1911 Anniversary
The U.S. Army officially adopted the 1911 pistol exactly 100 years ago today, March 29, 1911. What kind of pistolero would I be if I did not give John Browning his due respect and post a little celebration of the 1911 today!
For the first 35 years of my life, including my first 15 - 20 years of handgunning, the 1911 was our military handgun. The 1911s I owned and enjoyed back in the '70s and early '80s were essentially the same guns that soldiers were carrying and training with at the time, just as with the Beretta 92 today.
Old "Slabsides" is still going strong in both competition and on the street. It might be a bit heavy and larg

Upon returning the revolver, he let me know he was interested in trading it for a deer rifle since he was transferred from Alaska and would have less threat from the Big Grizz here in Kentucky and Tennessee. Well, as you might imagine, I just had to trade him out of it, so a few days after this video, the big revolver became mine. I can never be sure a "Big Grizz" won't wander into Tennessee by mistake!

Shooting and comparing the Glock 43 single-stack 9mm. I've been carrying and shooting the Glock 43 since it hit the shelves last week and have pretty well determined what I think about it and how it works.

Meet & Greet
See you at Elks Outdoors this Saturday from 11:00 - 2:00. It's in Pleasant View, Tn, just off I-24 on Main Street. See Link:
http://www.elksoutdoors.com/
Note: A special thanks to Bud's Gun Shop for getting the G43 to us as soon as it was available to the public. As mentioned in the video and in our recent Vlog, we will be sending back the guns that we get from Bud's, and they will be selling them on their auctions. With this part of their sponsorship most likely becoming a "no-cost" situation, even with the 10% of the sales price going to my favorite charity (Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee), we'll be able to request firearms from them every week, or even more often if desired. Hopefully, Bud's will get their money back on the firearms, or more, but that's all their business; we get nothing from the auctions. It WILL be easier to obtain firearms from them about any time we need or want one they have. Should be one of those so-called "win-win" situations. :-)

The U.S. Army officially adopted the 1911 pistol exactly 100 years ago today, March 29, 1911. What kind of pistolero would I be if I did not give John Browning his due respect and post a little celebration of the 1911 today!
For the first 35 years of my life, including my first 15 - 20 years of handgunning, the 1911 was our military handgun. The 1911s I owned and enjoyed back in the '70s and early '80s were essentially the same guns that soldiers were carrying and training with at the time, just as with the Beretta 92 today.
Old "Slabsides" is still going strong in both competition and on the street. It might be a bit heavy and large, but it is still a very viable choice for almost any handgun application. How many other pieces of machinery designed and used 100 years ago are we still using! :-)
I've fired tens of thousands of rounds of .45ACP through John Browning's creation, and I plan to shoot many thousands more through them before I'm banished to that final shooting range in the sky! :-)

Shooting and showing the .454 Toklat Super Redhawk. A local viewer / soldier from Fort Campbell lent us this revolver. Upon returning the revolver, he let me know he was interested in trading it for a deer rifle since he was transferred from Alaska and would have less threat from the Big Grizz here in Kentucky and Tennessee. Well, as you might imagine, I just had to trade him out of it, so a few days after this video, the big revolver became mine. I can never be sure a "Big Grizz" won't wander into Tennessee by mistake! You'll see it again on the range, no doubt.

The U.S. Army officially adopted the 1911 pistol exactly 100 years ago today, March 29, 1911. What kind of pistolero would I be if I did not give John Browning his due respect and post a little celebration of the 1911 today!
For the first 35 years of my life, including my first 15 - 20 years of handgunning, the 1911 was our military handgun. The 1911s I owned and enjoyed back in the '70s and early '80s were essentially the same guns that soldiers were carrying and training with at the time, just as with the Beretta 92 today.
Old "Slabsides" is still going strong in both competition and on the street. It might be a bit heavy and large, but it is still a very viable choice for almost any handgun application. How many other pieces of machinery designed and used 100 years ago are we still using! :-)
I've fired tens of thousands of rounds of .45ACP through John Browning's creation, and I plan to shoot many thousands more through them before I'm banished to that final shooting range in the sky! :-)
PresidentBashar al-Assad said the success of a military campaign by Russia, Syria and its allies was vital to save the Middle East from destruction, a day after Moscow said it would step up air strikes against Islamic State targets across Syria ... “It must succeed, otherwise we face the destruction of the entire region and not only one or two states,” he said in an interview with Iranian television broadcast on Sunday ... Rival insurgents....
WASHINGTON (AP) — Set 'em up, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and lend an ear to the troubles of a presidential candidate. The front-runner for the Democratic nomination appeared on the season opener of "Saturday Night Live" as a wise bartender named Val who pours a drink or two for, ahem, Hillary Clinton (played by "SNL" regular Kate McKinnon) ... "So, Hillary," Clinton asks McKinnon, "what brings you here tonight?" ... . ... ....
