Mom & Dad. Thanks for coming down.
Congratulations - to you for accomplishing your initial goals and to your family for supporting you as you worked your way through the first part. Your perseverance and their support will be even more important as you as you "get your feet on the ground" and figure out the rights, privileges, and responsibilities that go with your new status. Now that you have your "liscense to learn" much will be expected of you. (But the rewards for doing it well last a lifetime.) Now - put on your "plays well with others" T-shirt, go forth, and do great things. When do you leave for 1st Gp? BTW - despite some of the prejudices of other members, I like 1911's too. I got my first one as a present to myself for graduating Ranger School back in 1980. I'm glad you're looking at a pistol with a rail, it's worth the extra money. I recommend the Kimber, it seems to have a broader range of readilly available holsters. And Shooter's has a couple in stock . Send me a PM. Peregrino
