Honestly I did not even look at the 1911 untill I read what you guys wrote today.  I looked at the R9s though.  ;D

Guess I got it bad.....

I did that too.  The 1911 didn't shine.    ;D

The grips are the "Shine", sort of.  The real shine is - Vickers, and the Pre 70 Colt is icing on the cake!

Like Richard said -  "1911s and R9s just seem to go together".

It's amazing that I haven't developed tyoe 11 diabetes.

I have toned down quite a bit.  About 10 years ago when I traveled and had an expense account; I would workout 3 hours a day with 40 minutes of that cardio, just to support my sugar intake.  I would have rich deserts after each meal  and drink Choclalte malts for snacks, pies, cakes for snacks.
I would wake up in the middle of the night in a hotel, get dressed drive somewhere to get a chocolat fix.

Man it was bad.

WOW!  You are lucky.  Hope you're getting your physicals regularly.  Type II can set in before you know it.

Yeah, I see my internist 3-4x yr get labs each time, even have him do a lead sceen 1-2x yr for  lead levels since I handle so much lead with casting and reloading as well as shooting every weekend.

How did you suppress the sugar/chocolate desire?
