First time I saw a Philippine Constabulary draw his .45 to open a beer, I thought to myself, "How am I going to get the glass out of that beer?"
I used to have an Argentinian 1911 with a lanyard loop. Arched striated, as I recall.
The same PC could field-strip a 1911 in four seconds, easily, two when he was hot. On a good day, I can do it in four. That's what I bought the cheap 1911 for - to practice with.
