Don't that purty?.......... a blinged-up baby 1911.
Unlike the Puma 22LR 1911 I posted a while back, this Browning commemorative is undersized. But it's perfectly scaled down and an actual baby 1911. Comes as a set with a KA-BAR knife. And don't ask what it cost. I should have my head examined, OK?

Ain't plumb sure it's as big as an officer's model.

Yeah, but the barrel & slide are scaled down to the .22 diameter. It's not a .45 barrel with a .22 bore, like the .22LR Puma 1911 I've got. But it's an old-time 1911, allright. I racked it back and it bit me.

Ah, I think I understand now.
Re: Don't that purty?.......... a blinged-up baby 1911.
Nice one! There's just something about the M1911. No matter who makes it, what finish it has, how much it costs... how "scaled down" it is... I just love them all.

Don't I know it! That's why I've got more of them suckers than I've got fingers and toes. I can't quit.

I've starting toying with the idea of buying a kit and building my own.... just picked up Kuhnhausen's Volume I. Need some decent tools first, then some cash for a kit. Will start small and cheap first if I do go through with it.
