Must have missed this on the first time through - Nice piece you got their Jo. Looks like she shoots well with just plain old range ammo, with a little more trigger time, and some real ammo, you will be blasting out that "X" ring in nothing flat.
Nice addition to the home arsenal - and you finally found one that was Kali friendly - no small task I am sure.

Thanks JD
And thanks for your help in the decision process.
You and Cane both had to listen to my ranting as I tried to find a nice 45 that was in stock, and Kali approved. | |

No easy task, that is for sure. Looks like you got yourself a keeper though.
I have that same rear site on Big Thunder II and I can't stand it. Gets snagged on everything. If you are considering concealed carry with it, I would look at getting a change out done.

Thanks but I have the Star 9mm and the Colt super 38 that work much better for CCW.
Which I am not allowed here in Mexifornia.  | |

I thought you could, but you had to take the 16 hour class and demonstrate the ability to safely handle the firearm during a "range session"
I was able to get a permit when I was in Redding in like 2002 by going through that process.....

It's actually decided by county not state. Here in LA you have to be seriously connected, like Sylvester Stallone. | |

Not cool. Well, can't you just arrange for a toilet problem to happen at the local Chief of Police's residence? Then you can get a special "Friend of the Force" card like they used to issue back in Chicago in the Capone days. __________________ "as for my Sword & Spear we will serve the throne, but NEVER that man who sits upon it" - Achilles - Warrior of Warriors
