Thank you for your service in our United States Air Force.
I am grateful to you for voluntarily surrendering many of the "Rights" about which far too many people today are clueless. You and your service brethren have kept my family safe and alive - as well as the ones who would bring down our system.
Sorry, I am rather passionate over what you folks do, appreciating such deeply and can quickly take the soapbox's top. Thus, I conclude this entirely unrelated topic, but not before conveying a for-real: Thank You, Sir.
Years ago I did exactly as you suggest yourself should do: buy a 39-2 because I didn't want to screw up a far prettier M39. Worked out unexpectedly well, too, for what is now my favorite-carry 39-2 is the most accurate "old" handgun in my possession - and I sight through iron when using it.
It isn't terribly ugly, but I doubt it'd win many "pretty" awards, either. It, me and other folks taking a shot (or five) have put down some remarkably tight patterns. for a pistol produced in the early 70's.
Nearly always one can find a 39-2 that others disdain because they don't want a gun that may have fired 250 or 500 rounds . . . a count that, realistically, is finally at that gun's break-in level.
Do I still lament an extra ding on the metal and negatively impacted grips because something's corner had heavily lay upon it at some inopportune moment. You can bet your sweet bippy.
And then it speaks to me, "Oh boy! We gotta go to the range again this week and be assured I'm still fine!"
And it is, every single time.
Again: Thanks, man.
Later.
