Hey man, PM me. I love the .40 and will be out east this weekend.

Aw man I hate I'm just now seeing this. Will PM you.

OXR! Small world!

A drop is a drop. I don't care what end of the firearm contacts the ground.

I don't consider the trigger to be a threshold when it comes to a deciding factor when it comes to an EDC between a 1911 and a striker-fired pistol. The 1911 will ALWAYS have a better trigger; however, the trade-off is having a hammer which can get caught on clothing in a quick-draw scenario. 1911s are definitely not drop-safe. An accidental drop is perfectly possible even with someone who is staunch about keeping their firearm secured: hence the term "accidental". Garand Thumb did a drop test with handguns including the 1911 and even the 2011. A free firing pin in the 1911 has enough inertia to ingnite a .45ACP primer upon a drop. That's all there is to it.

A 1911 is not drop safe. It was a great side-piece for years but modern handguns have surpassed the 1911 in all categories when it comes to carry arms. This is all coming from a guy who LOVES his 1911s...

Are you ever in the Lebanon area?

What is the wattage on that rig? Edit: Output wattage.

Ayyyyy welcome to the world of ham radio! The beauty of modern radios is that SO MANY can be used as mobile AND base transceivers. Really all you have to do is find a compact radio that covers all the bands you desire. You can choose to have low power (roughly 10 watts) or full power (100 watts) for output on the bands. I am a whore for Yaesu these days, but Kenwood was my workhorse up until last year.

How many rounds have you put through it?

Will do! Have to get my new user threshold passed first. Edit: I can't spell.

Let's see...

Will you be close to Cookeville or Lebanon anytime soon?

Whaddup, y'all? I recently moved to the area from Madison, Alabama. I still feel at home even though I work in Hermitage. I'm pretty laidback, with a typical evening consisting of sipping on a bourbon on the back patio with the dogs. Cheers, friends!

I understand that it hasn't had the recall work done. Likely won't be able to get your asking price without that. I do have cash and am interested regardless.
