I'm just so disgusted with the current political situation now. Just when I was thinking of getting strapped in for the ride, now I hear some of our own elected republicans are joining the democrats and doing it to us even more. Talk about being kicked when your down. I thought this gun ban garbage was over with when DUBBYA let X-42's law sunset.

I have been trying to decide,
1911 45ACP or FHN five seven. Five seven has 20 rnd high velocity but unique ammo that will likely be banned. 45 has brute force and ammo is everywhere.
The five seven would be an interesting collector piece to me. What would Jack O'neil do.

Buy both.

I’m not a .45 fan but the 5.7 is odd enough for me to want it :)

You mean FNH.

The FN FiveseveN (their spelling, not mine) is known to have issues with firing out of battery. And the 5.7mm ammo turns out to be nothing spectacular in civvie-legal loadings.

Look into a Springfield XD45.

The 1911. I’m ordinarily not prone to sentimentality, but in these dark times, few things comfort me more than this venerable piece. Nothing like a timeless, functional work of art to remind me of better days. What the hell! Now that the Obamessiah is going to pay your mortgage and gas, treat yourself to both with that extra cash. You deserve it.
