    If it works, why change it?
    Don’t blame me. I didn’t vote for that dumb bastard.

    I had one of these, which was the first non-parent directed car I purchased (in the 90's). Still sort of miss it. Cool rig, but man did it have some problems by the time I bought it used.

    It did have an awesome in-car factory cell phone in the center console.

    In honor of the keychain:

    Speed six, half moons
    And I don't know where I am goin' to
    Waved knife, flashlight
    I don't need a reason why

    They come runnin' just as fast as they can
    'Cause every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man...

    With the exception of the wave adaptor and G10 handle material on the Civilian, I can assure that the rest is period correct. Including the civilian design, LP stamped torch and keys.

    I was thinking about the wave bit, and the knife itself as a whole... I remember Spyderco being around, but I didn't remember the Civilian being a thing. Then again, I wasn't quite old enough to pack a gun back then. I did read about a bazzillion hand-me-down GUNS magazines in that time frame though.

    Every once in a while I feel the need for a 9x19 revolver... then practicality takes control, and I stop myself. Nice pocket dump.

    ETA: I don't know about the ammo either... cant read the headstamp or make out what it is. Not that it matters much. 9BP or 9BPLE?
