Didn’t cost me anything. It’s part of my tuition. I’m sent tools and supplies, no extra cost. This was part of it. An upcoming class will be an 80% 1911.

This one looks like what I have, but it’s not the exact one. I was sent a Shenandoah.

I got much of my tuition covered with pel grants because I’m full time. Out of my pocket, going to be around $4k for a 2.5 year education. That will give me my associates degree.

I may just buy ammo :wink:

Always wanted to do that myself.
I did a pistol once and never fired it.
It is still around here as a decoration more than anything.
