    Well, in San Francisco it's been established that it's okay for Manuel to operate a firearm with impunity.

    Yeah, and you'll only eat one Oreo, you'll pay up by next payday and you won't come in..... ah, you get the point.

    I don't hold a candle to him. But yeah, if firing magnum loads out of a Model 27 doesn't put a smile on your face, go take up archery.

    That’s certainly a nicely setup pistol what with all that custom work. I usually paint the sights and dry fire the crap out of mine. 😉

    I wouldnt be too surprised if we ended up with some sort of barrel length limitations, depending on who winds up in the WH. As we all know the smaller a gun is, in other words concealable, the more dangerous and powerful it becomes. Or something like that.

    What about a gun that’s mostly right from the factory? The 3” Wiley Clapp GP100’s are pretty darn close.

    You're going to TacCon in Dallas, right? The Texas crew will drag you down the rabbit hole for sure.

    When I looked at the lower Clapp in Hizzie's pic, I did a double take looking at the grip when I realized how far I've tweaked mine.
