Great rig and pistol
You've got to rock one of these though.
Sure. But what would you put into the mag pouches?
This brings back memories. My first duty pistol was a 1086, and the flaming asshole of a chief we had was anti-gun and would only authorize the duty pistol fir off duty carry. I had a Miami classic for it. I wish I had bought a dozen of those pistols when we traded them in. Ive seen them go for close to 2k. And I really wish I had the pile of mags I had. And the 1006 and 1066 I sold when 10mm was fading away.
Never heard of that flavor before - damn, that’s sexy.

DAO 10mm. IIRC, only 1200 or so were made. My agency and one other adopted it, can't remember which one. There is another variant out there which is more rare. I think it was a four inch version of the 1076 made for a state bureau of prisons. I want to say it was Maine, and there were only four hundred and change of them.
The 3rd Generation S&W Autos were some of the best service pistols made. I'd rather have a 4566 than any M&P.
Well, as long as we’re going all old school here… A Python nest. (And, yeah, I know it’s not a semi, but it happened to be what I was wearing earlier today)

I might have to get a setup like that when I get my 1965 Trooper back from its reblueing adventure.

When I first saw this thread title, knowing who posted, my mind immediately went to Davy Crockett. Then my mind confused Davy with Jim Bowie and I expected to see a giant knife when I opened the thread.
I mean... we've got revolvers.
I'm certainly not opposed to seeing a giant knife
Or a Roman gladius, for that matter...
