    Hi from central Massachusetts

    Hi Keli ... I'm a former subject of the dark thumb of mAssachusetts tyranny. Now I live under the dark thumb of tyranny in IL. Yup, pretty much frying pan to fire if you get my drift. If you can, get the Smith M&P 22 as a companion piece to the 9mm Shield. I'm not sure if the m&p22 is "on...

    Greetings from Lake County, IL ... just picked up my first 1911 a couple months ago. I'm quite enjoying my first all-steel pistol, but Holy Brother of Moses, .45acp ammo is pricey !!

    Steel case and aluminum case ammo
