Thanks!
Even though I engraved it over a year ago, it still turns heads.

Kimber Custom Classic ser.# 90xx
She has about 130,000 rounds through her.
Still shoots like a champ. If I were to remove the skateboard tape, you'd see the wear marks from my grubby little paws.

Sorry for the blurred pics. Thankfully, I can shoot my guns better than my camera.

Colt Series 70 Full Custom
Leather...
Milt Sparks Shark and Elephant.


Colt Combat Elite XSE Series 80




I have no safe queens... don't believe in them. Both are regular carry and IDPA shooters.
Both also used for instruction at POST.

Here are mine.
4" Sig Revolution Carry, 3" Colt New Agent and Sig P-238.

Does the 238 count as a 1911? If not can I add my Browning Hi Power?
