    I got a real New Year's suprise.

    When our instructor passed away in 2009 I bought his Colt Detective Special and my friend Doug bought his 1991 A1 45 cal semi-auto.Being Doug is thining his gun collection, I was the recipient of his 45 cal.Now both of Abe's carry guns will live with me and they will be shot often with a smile on my face.Today has turned out to be a very good day.....Mike

    Right now the Detective Special is @ Colt for a rebluing after the Royal Blue wore to bear metal on the backstrap and the 45 is living @ the FFL due to NYS gun laws that register every gun on your license.When they come back home pics will definately follow
