When it comes to Rifles, on a decent day while I won't impress anyone, I won't embarrass myself either. But pistols on the other hand... Pistols I can shoot.

I love the 1911. Probably the best pistol ever designed. Sure, there are some out there are have clever details, or fancy engineering, or somesuch, but in the end the 1911 takes them all. I will grant, however, that when it comes to mouse guns, the High Power ranks right up there with the 1911. It is just flat out a good solid pistol. Nothing fancy (like the 1911), nothing clever, it just plain works.

I was born over in Germany and was almost 7 when I finally moved to the States, and my parents (Dad was US Cav) insisted that they make sure I learn how to be a good American, since I was well on my way to being a good little german: My german at the time was better than my english, somewhat embarrassing for a Military Parent. So, since Dad was stationed in Fort Huachuca he felt it was worth the long ass drive to live over in Tombstone so I can learn how to be a proper american kid. Little wonder that I wound up spending more time than I can imagine playing with pistols.
