A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

EAST GERMAN MAKAROV

I thought I'd posted this one before but apparently I didn't. I stopped at a Gun Shop that was going out of business last year. They had a Colt 1903 .32 and an East German Makarov next to each other with the price tags switched. I told him about it and he gave me a good discount on the Mak.

The East German Makarovs are probably the best ones made; fit and finish are on a par with early Post WWII Walthers. This one is dated 1961.

Back, after a long rest....

I've been waiting for this gun from the maker, Chuck Warner of Elite Warrior Armament in New Mexico for a while. Based on the High Power, this P-35 started life as a block of billet steel. It includes upgrades and modifications to make it stronger in High Power weak areas; the front strap is thicker to allow for checkering; and the slide is heavier (with an 18# recoil spring). Chuck designed this gun to shoot +P and +P+ ammo. I've shot a few different 9mm ammo brands; so far the gun functions quite nicely with Speer Gold Dot LE 147 Gr. JHP ammo.

ParaOrd C6.45LDA compact .45 ACP. The knife, sold long ago for a tidy sum was made by Bailey Bradshaw; elephant ivory scales; engraving, gold filled accents. Sort of miss that one!

Hey guys - I'm alive and well - just burned myself out some on the rush to post a gun and knife per day.

I'll resume soon. Thanks to you all and to SDMCC530 for checking on me!
