I really would not call it a club. More like old men sitting around talking about the good ole' times.

Looks awsome. Good choice, hope you enjoy your new toy!

Nice man, I'm jealous.

The first 1911 I ever shot was a Springer longslide. I think it shot better (easier) than any 1911 I've shot to this day.

It was the gun that made me long for a 1911 of my own.

Congrats and enjoy, we'll be awaiting your range report. BD

Nothing like being 16 and your first car being a caddilac. Not that I would know, I'm just saying. Welcome to the club.

That is the way to start things off. That would be more like an ending point for me. Good job.

It's how I learned to swim I don't see why it doesn't apply to other things
