Just received my latest NRA magazine. Usually I flip through the blah-blah and read over the old school firearms articles. A couple of which I have owned and a few I have actually deployed and shot. This month's mag was different as it contained an article this old 45acp guy had to read. It was as captioned above "The Rise of the 9mm" 1911. Fascinating IMHO. 'Splained a whole gooberload of stuff. I had to laugh as I read it as I myself am picking up a new-to-me 1911 9mm tomorrow I have purchased one here from a fellow forum member and tomorrow's THE DAY! Only two main small arms calibers in our house 45acp and 9mm. The addition of another caliber for my beloved 1911 platform seemed like a no brainer 'specially since I had been drooling over a particular 1911 9mm platform for months now and couldn't find one. Daddgum Rona and the frenzied sale of all things firearm. Yep, tomorrow's the big day at TickLickers. Heading for my 3rd cup o'joe now. Wishing everyone on our forum and all their families and friends the very Merriest of Christmases. Here's wishes also for a better 2021. 2020 has mostly been a bubblegummer deluxe. Pops
