UJ,

One of my favorite reasons for opting for a .45 ACP over 9mm is that "shooting twice is just silly".

But Ron, that second shot is FUN!!

I'm with you Ron. Give me a .45 any day. The only reason it has 8 rounds is because there may be more than one Illegitimi.

Now that's funny...I particularly like that "Gunny" was working there

Ron, you know darn well sometimes there's two targets. Then you need good gun control to transition. I'm with you on the .45, if it's going take more than one mag I want a shoulder fire weapon, maybe something in a 7.62 range.

UJ,

Speaking of gun control, I just this evening, brought home a really clean M-1 Garand. Holy Moly, but I love that rifle. Can't wait to bust some caps with it. For those in the know...Yes, my right thumb is slightly larger than my left. I've seen what a .45 can do, there is very seldom a need for a second shot in the same target. Now if your in a target rich environment.....

Byron Z,

As a combat sniper, I've always been of the one well placed shot, one kill practice, or are we talking paper targets here with the 2d shot being fun.

I had very limited exposure to the M-1 but would love to own a M-14 which is what I trained with a lovely Ft. Polk (a bit of humor there in case you missed it).

Uncle Jesse, I also trained with the M-14 at Ft Polk. I remember Sgt Spencer saying, "Do not lose your weapon, or you WILL have to pay the $65 to replace it." I wish I could get one for $65 today.

I just bought one of these. A Ruger SR40 40 S&W with plastic frame.

This is my boogie man deterrent. Its a pre-lock S&W 686 .357 with Goncalo Alves grips

Jesse & Joe,

That makes three of us that trained with the M-14 at beautiful Fort Puke....er...ah....Polk. Back in the good old days, fire watch at night, keeping the coal fired furnaces going even though you could see through the cracks in the barracks walls. Peeling spuds, getting stuck on pots and pans or cleaning the grease trap when on KP. I just remembered, I really hated that place.

I got my love of the M-1 while in high school ROTC. They were the rifles we used for drill and ceremonies, tactics training, and marksmanship.
