I thought of Froggy when I picked this up last night:

Springfield Mil spec SS. I'll be taking it to the range next Monday.

Beautiful 1911!
How much did it run you and where did you get it?

$699 plus tax and Virginia state police background check came to $736 out the door. Bought it at a local dealer called Virginia Arms.

I'm not going to tell you how much that dealer made off you though... You might be upset.

I know they make a lot, but this has been one of the better dealers I have been to over the years. I could have gotten a parkerized one cheaper, but I wanted stainless. Price was within $50 of what the cheapest I could find on the web new, but I would have still had to pay shipping and transfer fees so it was close to a wash.

so in other words it would be similar to launching a GEO Metro at a half mile a second

I agree, because after all, bad guys have never been known to wear body armor.

Although I sort of agree with you KS. Personally, I don't foresee having to shoot a cop. But there is more to a round than just armor penetration.

This reminded me of our conversation. A cop was killed because the this POS was wearing a vest.
