The training film was from 1943, so I think killing someone that was trying to kill you had greater import! <br /><br />Many tell me to not fire the Colt 1902 because the primary failure of that pistol is to lose the slide lock and it will hit you in the head. <br /><br />I shot a one hundred year old shotgun last month.<br /><br />Yeah, I'm weird that way! <br /><br />I try to keep all of it in context. I want to shoot tools with the mark of history.Keadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09982258812373127063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5503493157036177130.post-18108231133336333032012-02-10T20:58:38.284-08:002012-02-10T20:58:38.284-08:00Also, I love the old school way of laying next to ...Also, I love the old school way of laying next to the ejection port of a rifle (Garand action, no less) and staring right into it with no eye protection.
