Nice shirt, I like it but what happened to Singer Sewing Machines?

 

[Lee Barner]

Singers were actually pre-war and went to the Army Air Corps just before Pearl Harbor. some were issued at Hickham Field, HI on Friday, Dec 5, 1941. lee

Interesting Lee, I didn't realize that. Always heard about the Singer being the hardest to find. Thanks for the small education. I have a soft spot for my 1911's.

Glad your T Shirt still fits. Something got into my closet shrinking most of my clothes.

All these years, I thought my wife wad shrinking my favorite t-shirts. It turns out it wasn't her, it was my stomach.

I don't mind T-shirts shrinking, to much. But, I really want to have a serious talk with the Jerk who has been shrinking my good leather belts

What a great t-shirt! Never seen one like it. Just the thing for a 1911A1 guy like you.

I know Singer was awarded their contract in 1939. Or I think I know, okay? Didn't know their production was actually pre-war December of 1941, though. Thanks for that info. It's little details like that that makes the WWII 1911A1s so interesting to me.

My best friend had a shirt that showed the 45 and said "Cocked & Locked since 1911" That says it all.

We allegedly had a Singer in the arms room at Ft. Meade in 1984. The armorers were reportedly under strict orders never to issue it to anybody. Commander thought it might get "lost."

Last one listed, I believe.

Saw a shirt at a gun show with a picture of a .45 cartridge and the legend "Old, fat and slow still works every time."
