Nice looking blades, I should have been paying attention myself.

I seen it on the local news this morning. He fought a hard battle for sure. Brings things into perspective, especially for me. I've been battling stage 4 Colon, and Liver cancer for close to three years, and it's been tough. May he finally rest in peace without pain.

Here's a mid 1920's Smith & Wesson 22/32 HEAVY FRAME 6"Bbl. Blued 22lr. The Blueing is orginal, and shows some wear( see pictures) Orginal Wooden Grips, the lettering is crisp and clean, Rifling is good. The Serial Number puts it out of range for the Bekeart Mod. see pic of article. $700 CASH FTF. I live in the Whitehouse area and can meet locally around Goodlettsville, Hendersonville, Gallatin, and Nashville area but willing to drive a little to meet and complete the transaction. Thanks for looking.

Stop by one of the Play It Again Sports store and pick up a good used Bat. Then go see said Plastic Surgeon and let him know he's going to need surgery. But seriously file a complaint about the Surgeon with the medical board, and also let his insurance know what happened. I hate to say it and I know $4000 is a lot nowadays with everything going on, but if your son was to sue I bet he'd spend more than he would get back. I'd probably find another Surgeon and explain to them what happened and don't pay up front.

The warmest pair of boots I ever bought where a pair of the "Mickey Mouse" boots. I worked back home a few years ago back up in Pennsylvania. I worked on a Gas Turbine project. I got put on a crew that was welding up the high pressure steam lines at 130' level. My feet were always cold, I worked next to a guy from Canada and he had a pair, so I ordered a pair and got some good wool socks and a good insole for them my feet never got cold after that. We worked all winter long on that project in at least 2' of snow and Single didgit temperatures 10hrs a day.

I've been in your shoes, recommended a friend to an employer for about the same reasons you did. One day the boss asked to talk to me, I was a little surprised when he started telling me about "Jed". When he was done talking to me about him I told the boss I would go and have a heart to heart talk with "Jed" and explain the situation to him and what would happen to him if he didn't get his act together. I told him to meet me after work because I wanted to talk to him. I told him everything the boss said and I also told him how I felt because I saw first handed what was told to me, I politely told him he would have to shape up and get his head out of his ass or he'd be kicking cans down the road after he was fired. I also explained that I took a chance on the recommendation for the job and his actions could effect me, after that little plain talk we had he actually did a 180° turn around, and the boss noticed that and they both thanked me for doing what I did. Good luck, and have a good straight forward talk with your friend and just spell it out to him.

Nice looking SA, to bad your to far away.

Ed Brown is another good one, I bought a used Special Forces mod. on here about six years ago. It was a great gun, I should've kept it but I got talked into selling it to a coworker.

Chambers is a good one for sure but his wait times are probably a year or two right now as with most top smiths. I liked my two NightHawk's and my Wilson CQBE, I've probably got close to 20,000rnds + down it and all I've had to replace were the springs and an extractor. Gun Crafter by Alex Zimmerman is another good 1911. If your looking for a custom built one PM me I know a local builder that is great, he builds 1911's and 2011's just as good as Chambers and few other top smiths plus he personally knows most of them.

I've owned probably 20 1911's and 2011's give or take. 1911's were NightHawk GRP, NightHawk w rail(can't remember the model), Gun Crafter Frag, six Les Baer's, two Custom Built Wilson Combat CQBE's, Springfield Armory from the std. model to the Operator Full Rail and half rail models, I only have one 1911 in 45acp and that's one of the CQBE's. I've had seven Staccato's but I've downsized to just two of those, C Single Stack 10rnd 9mm, and the new CS Double Stack 16rnd 9mm. As far as to what 1911 brand you want I would go with a reasonably priced one that has a good set of sights, if it were me I'd have to go with a Springfield Armory Garrison mod. and buy a 500-1000rnds. of ammo and go shoot it, also either one of the cheaper 1911's that are mentioned above are good starter guns. Then if you enjoy the 1911 platform go ahead and upgrade to a semi custom or full custom that way you don't have $2500-$3200+ in something you don't like. Just my opinion good luck in your search.

I bought one about a month or two ago, I like it so far.

Thanks

Nice N Frame, those are some great S&W's. Do you know when it was made? I'm interested.

You need to oil it up and shoot it about 500rnds. like what was pointed out. Lapping Compund is ok but it only takes a very small amount because if you use to much you'll ruin the slide to frame fit by it becoming way to loose. Ask anyone here who ever owned a Les Baer 1911, those are some of the tightest frame to slide fit guns that there is, ask me how I know. The four I owned were so tight fitting that I could hardly rack the slide, so I lubed the hell out of them and shot about 500-800rnds. down them once that was done they worked great. Just my opinion and thoughts on this, I've owned seven Staccato's and after breaking them in by shooting them a bunch they feel like the slide is on ball bearings.

One more bump up. There is some discoloration on the upper back strap and bottom of the trigger guard.

Back up one more time for the holidays, then after that back in the safe. Thanks for looking, Merry Christmas
