I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Really? The only other review I've heard of their new stuff was excellent.

I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillement of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause, and lies exhausted on the field of battle... Victorious.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

It was around 20 years ago, no shooting problems, I just did not like it. I also had a Kimber Ultra Carry II .45 no shooting problems. it just broke off the tip of ejector's.
I feel anything under a 4" for a 1911 .45 type is not what I want.
