How long is the string?

When I went to get a new phone, I wanted only good volume, quality pictures and texting. Was hard to find and a sales rep said but look at all of these features you get "for" free. Didn't want them at half that price.

The one thing I truly wish they had on cell phones is a genuine, enhanced caller ID - not just IDing the parties in your address book. I dispise getting unknown/not IDd calls. Always let them go to voice mail - if they don't leave a message then they don't want to talk to me.

Oh and neither my cell phone nor my 1911 are hot pink :)

No string, but the battery cover is duct taped to the back. :uhoh:

No pink, not even the duct tape...:lol:

Old also, but my 1911 has plastic grips(Vietnam era) my PA-63 (old Russian gun) has plastic grips also. I think the old Colt SAA had hard rubber grips.

... sits here waiting for the story of the Glock salesman to be told ... probably too much typing involved to get the written version, was funny when you told it face to face a few weeks ago ...

So would I - but then again I'd also take a High Point if someone gave it to me. Both of them generally go "BANG!" when you swivel the criminal dispersal lever.

Biggest trouble with a Glock (or High Point or other Tupperware type pistol) is that unless you paint them it is near impossible for anybody to know you have turned it into a BBQ gun.

stay safe.

Glocks and CHP's go hand in hand. Hide it so people don't make fun of you:uhoh:

I kinda like my Glock. It makes a great beater so I don't wear the purty off my real guns.:lol:
