    Yeah I missed some key points of that sentence. The safety can be removed as a feature that I don't like. As in removed from the list. But I really made a turd out of saying that...

    The part about time and money meaning what it would take for me to either find a model that had a safety I like, or the replacement of one I didn't. I uh...I won't be posting after I know I should already be asleep. Sorry bout that.

    That should just give you incentive to learn to reload more quickly.

    I think somebody mentioned something about how they can reload a 1911 faster than any of the "wonder-nines".

    And that was the last anyone heard of Hilton Yam.

    What is the world coming to when the mods are necroposting? Did we not meet our yearly necros this year?

    I’ve never understood the big sin of necroposting. You get hit with the “use the search function” if you don’t, if you do you are necroposting.

    Yeah no kidding, Modern Service Weapons was a great blog and now its dead. Would love to know what happened...
    My theory is he lost interest in the whole shebang. At least I hope so. Otherwise he severely miscalculated his brand value separate from his knowledge of the 1911 platform.
