Thanks again to our Gun Bunny for the links.
The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. — Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States

Hi Power– outstanding piece!

Fixed, thanks.
Mounties to the rescue. A Big BZ to our Boys North of the Border, RCAF Chairborne and Hatchet. Dogged that perp out and made mush of him.
Special kind of teh stoopid using a knife to take on 5+ armed Officers. One less nt case in the gene pool.
“Made with serious respect for the original Browning…” As it should be! As God intended! His Most Saintly John Moses Browning (Howitzer Be His Name), THE most gifted designer of things that go BANG…EVAH! Was able to use the AlGloreBull built amazing inherweb thingie to look at the article on JMB in the American Rifleman that ‘beans gave us a heads up on. Great write up and some nice pics. In addition to his gunz designs, JMB musta been the inspiration for ZZ Top’s “Sharp dressed Man”.
Looks like they are just dropping a 15 round Mecgar mag into a late model HiPower… a good combination. Think in the world of pistols that is THE most adopted, over 50 countries made the P35 their standard pistol. Might have to get one a these…guaranteed the magazine disconnect is gonna fall off. Immediately.
