Thanks Rex.

Festus, your username brings back more than a few fond memories. If a Marshal Dillon or Ms Kitty gets in on this, I am going to have to pinch myself to make sure this is real.

Welcome. Another 1911 guy, like cockroaches I tell ya, at least your redeemable with the Hi Power and AR!

Oh and a big HOOAH! For a fellow Army Vet.

Like cockroaches, the only guns left after a nuclear apocalypse will be 1911s and maybe a Hi-Power or two. Oh and right back at you Joe! Army all the way.

Nuclear war- Yeah it will be that episode of the twilight zone where the guy is trapped in a library and breaks his glasses. 1911s everywhere and all we have left is Hollow Point Ammo, NOOOOO!

Now that is just cruel man. Hopefully there will be a Dremel lying around so he can polish the everloving #311 out of that feed ramp.

Absolutely and my family loved the show when I was growing up.

I lived in Woodbridge for a few years when I first started working at the Pentagon. If you ever went to any of the local gun shows, you’ve probably seen my old reloading business. My logo is very distinctive.

Don’t really go to gun shows that much at all
Prices aren’t what they used to be here at all

Tell me about it. We opened a small shop in Dumfries, but closed it down about a year and a half or so later. I get a lot of people asking am I going to open up again or do business online and I just don’t have the energy for it at the moment. I’ve thought of doing shows again, which lasted four years, but just wrong place wrong time.

Do you shoot anywhere locally ?

1 Like

No, because I prefer shooting outdoors. I wish there was someplace local. Other than that, we travel a bit to shoot outdoors. There is always Elite in Manassas or the range in Lorton. I have heard of another in Stafford, but I’ve not been to that one.
