Well firstly, no firearm I have owned has ever been a thing of beauty. Not because I don't think a firearm is capable of being a thing of beauty, but because they simply weren't. In fact they were/are dog ugly. :lol:
Don't you have at least one 1911 incarnation? Talk about a handsome gun! :knuddel:
