Shield ;)Use an LED flashlight, and the yellow will plainly show. I stumbled on to this after purchasing my Shield 9. For some reason the yellow won't show with a regular flashlight or under ambient light, but it will glow under the LED light.

1911 "Grats. I have three, Colt Mark IV Officers Model caliber 45, Colt 1991 A1 caliber 45, which my wife gave me for Christmas many years ago, and a Springfield Armory 1911 Mil-Spec Parkerized Model caliber 45. It isn't a caliber 45, but it's a Rock Island Armory M1911-A1-FS Super 38 caliber...

Super 38 If you are wanting a Super 38, Rock Island Armory makes them in the 1911 model. They are California compliant, and are made in the Philippines. New and in the box for around$475.00. I have one, and it shoots just as good or better than some of the high dollar ones. I really like...

EDC S&W M&P Shield 9mm. With LG489 Crimson Trace, and Sneaky Pete holster.

100yd shot They neglected to add. He was at a full gallop on his own mount, while holding the reins of the other two horses.

Thanks people. As for the "wussy" load, I have learned in my 82 years on this planet, there "ain't" no such thing as a dumb question. And, yes I have fired 44 magnum factory loads in it. As you all know, powder is hard to come by and, in my neck of the woods you had better be in the line when...
