A little history with Ken Hackathorn.......

Here's a nice little vid on the developmental history of the 1911. Nothing groundbreaking, but nice if you enjoy history.

Thanks for sharing.

That's some beautiful countryside.

if I had throwaway $$$$, I would find me a bone stock early 30s Commercial Govt Model. the description of that particular model is cool.

Thanks for the 411. I had the opportunity to meet Mr Hackathorn, a gentleman and scholar of the 1911.

Thanks for posting the video. Hackathorn is one of my heroes. Took a Centennial 1911 Class with LAV and him and enjoyed listening and pointers from both.

I get it, I really do. The waving of the muzzle towards the camera, though....

Unloaded guns not withstanding.

HUGE Hackathorn fan.

VERY educational, none the less...

Yeah, I get it, but let's try not to get all safety nazi on it.

Ken's a wealth of historical info and I'd love to spend time with him discussing stuff. Hell, we wouldn't even need to shoot.

A bit of trivia: the Rolex that Ken has on came from Matt Graham, in a fit of epic trading.

A great scholar of firearms period. I can't think of any category of firearms Ken isn't well versed in.
