I rarely shoot my .38 snub, I rarely carry it. Most of the time, when I do carry it, its loaded with shotshells. Junkyards appear to be snake magnets. A buddy of mine wants it, but doesnt have the money, when he does have the money, it gets spent elsewhere. At some point, he'll have something I want and we'll work out a trade. I think thats the only reason I still have it (and the snakes).
I forget I own a Para Companion untill I look in the safe, or see/hear one mentioned. It rusts really easily, so I'm planning on having it hardchromed. Someday. Till that day, it sits in the safe, wrapped up in a bod full of CLP.
I dont plan on selling either one of my semi-auto, thompsons, and theyre rarely taken to the range, but for good reason. Its not unusuall for me to go through several hundred rounds during a range session, and .45 aint cheap. I know, I should reload, and I plan to. Someday.
I traded my G17 in on a Series I kimber I've fired about 1000 rounds through, and its sat in the safe, unfired for about a year. Theres something up with the trigger, its, um, spongy. I'll have that fixed someday, but at the moment I'm more concerned with my AMT.
Yes, I bought an AMT hardballer. And yes, at the moment its a priorty over my spongy-triggered Kimber. I havent fired it in years. In the time I've had 1911s, I have lost a few pins, bushings and screws. Guess where I got replacements?
At the moment, my AMT is a slide, barrel, and a frame. Truth be told, I dont know where the barrel is. If I havent used the part in another 1911, I've lost it since I used the pin that held it in. Currently, I've got parts on the way to make the frame complete, and I'm gonna top it off with a .22 conversion. I've got a little girl on the way, so gotta have a pistol she can learn to shoot with. But first she's gonna learn how to shoot her great-grandfather's 10-22.
