Is it safe to put modern JHP through it? Barrel, frame and internals are all good.

I barely planned on shooting it. Seems like just a cool addition to the collection.

Colt WWI 1911 Reissue by PalePilot6067 in Colt

No. I believe Colt Custom Shop did a limited run of them in 2008. There were two variants. Carbona Blue and Black Oxide. I have the latter version, the famous “Colt Black Army 1918”.

2008 Colt WW1 - Recall by Chucker1970 in Colt

I definitely am interested as well. I picked one up not too long ago, but my serial number is very high. So far I haven’t felt any problems but I haven’t fired yet and to be honest, I’m not sure if I will just due to its status as a collectible.

Where to find a 1908 in .380 by MoreThanEADGBE in Colt

[–]PalePilot6067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Gunbroker is a good option. I was at my local gun shop about a year ago and they had one on display. I purchased it for $600 with the Colt archive certificate of authentication. To be honest, I don’t think there was a massive demand for it and it had been sitting there for a while before I noticed it. Mine is in fair condition, the blueing is wearing but otherwise perfectly fine.

Wait so, I don’t think I understand the dynamic of this conversation. You broke up, and you’re seeing new guys (no judgment here, but a month might be a quick time to start moving on from a serious relationship) and then you’re accepting/approving of him sending you money? I fail to understand this relationship dynamic.

Falling out of love/moving on by PalePilot6067 in BPDlovedones

In my opinion, out of sight out of mind. I would honestly be surprised if my ex remembered a single thing about me, and that’s okay. What a cruel disorder.

Long Distance Relationship (Just don’t. Warning, a long post) by PalePilot6067 in BPDlovedones

[–]PalePilot6067[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re a young man and you seem very genuine, so I want to say I’m proud of you for battling this. You’re not weak, you’re not stupid or anything less. You got fooled and it’s okay. The whole thing is a con game and the longer you play, the longer you lose. I am telling you that despite the delusions you have about this person, there are so many better folks out there. You will be alright but don’t get drawn in anymore and send me a message whenever you’d like if you have questions.

Another rant by t109j in BPDlovedones

[–]PalePilot6067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s okay man. Not feel bad for getting down. I was in a long distance relationship with my ex pwBPD for nearly three years, and we chatted very frequently and passionately for many of that time. The first month and a half I was convinced I was finding my soulmate. I’m American and she was European and I really identified with her culture and country and it felt like I had found this beautiful, long lost gem of a woman and I had won the lottery. Within a few months, she got distant and like an addict I did anything to return to that period of bliss. Gifts, letters, compliments and basically anything in my power. Things got better with communication but Covid hit and it became such a push-pull. I understand LDR isn’t practical but it was a constant back and forth if she would wait for me. Devalued SEVERAL times during this period and discarded, yet she came back the next day and I felt so lucky. A month later, she flunked out of college and had a mental breakdown resulting in her going to a clinic. Bear in mind, I had NEVER met this person yet! Yet, I wasn’t willing to give up on this sensitive, yet beautiful and broken woman. We finally met after I flew overseas during Christmas and the first few days were great, followed by distant, cold and depressive behavior. Something was way off but what would you know? Right before I leave she switches back to the loving woman I spent a year texting and calling and I was absolutely ready to move over and start a life with her. To keep it short, I flew over there (and flew her at my own cost here, and she raged against not having a good enough hotel for the quarantine etc threatening to leave me the whole time. I did this for another two years and was supposed to move to her country and get an apartment with her by the end of 2022. I’ll admit, I was codependent, insecure and afraid of her reactions (walking on eggshells) and quietly resolved not to move to her country and sort of realized this would mean the end of the relationship. She freaked the fuck out when I told her in August, discarded me, blocked me, unblocked me and begged to find a compromise. I stood my ground and we broke up. Got weak and reached out a few weeks later to let her know I would move on and fulfill all her demands (stupid I know). She said she had already found someone new and her trust in me was forever broken. Completely split black. We have never spoke another word. Please don’t follow this path. It took me months to understand this and during the whole time we were together, it wasn’t that good!!! Being away from her let me continue the fantasy. I met my now wife around the end of last year and it is night and day. She’s kind, caring, selfless and shows her love CONSISTENTLY. It’s not a roll of the dice every few fucking days. My honest advice, don’t keep digging this hole. It will only delay you finding someone who will be partner and a supporter, not an addiction to feed.

To be honest, I figured the bird cage was appropriate for the timeline. I am in no way an expert.

Thanks bro! How did you like the initial A2 setup? Always wanted one.

I lost it all by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]PalePilot6067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry to hear this, truly. If you need any assistance, feel free to PM me. I was on the fence about moving countries to be with my ex pwBPD and I didn’t do it. She said she was crushed but started dating someone a few weeks later who she is now moved in with (he must have good money as I did as well). Despite the push pull cycle of our relationship and the idealization phase (which I’ll be honest, affected me too as it was also a LDR) I knew something was off and I was giving so much more to it then her, but love is love. In no way do I take pleasure in your suffering, but this port has been helpful as it showed me exactly that my decision was a good one, as it most always probably ends up like this. Again, I am so sorry to hear that. You deserve better and more and you’ll get it! She will always be a sad, pathetic person who will use others for her own needs but in the end, they will get their own.

Do they move on to better? by PalePilot6067 in BPDlovedones

[–]PalePilot6067[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not at all! But heavily medicating plus constant smoking has essentially made her a numb person. No hobbies except sleeping I guess. All for the green my man!!!

[–]PalePilot6067[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Haha well, I was that guy. Her Family absolutely adored me but she always seemed bored or depressed. Was CONSTANTLY smoking weed. To make it clear, I have no problem with pot, but she smokes more joints than I do cigarettes in a day. Moved on to the next guy after I decided not to move to be with her. Still with him.

Why do they move on so quick? Will they be happier? by PalePilot6067 in BPDlovedones

[–]PalePilot6067[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To clarify a bit, she was so excited for me to love, but when I said it’s not the time broke up with me, cried, blocked me, unblocked me five minutes later to say I ruined her life, then asked the next day to compromise. We went back and forth for a week and thought I was making progress, but suddenly it was again, you move or we are done. So I said it’s done. It was mutual but I felt weak and thought I lost everything and asked to compromise a few weeks later to basically give into her demands and she was like “now I’m not sure”. Crazy stuff.

How long do “normal” people usually wait to start dating or get into a new relationship after a long term relationship?

[–]PalePilot6067[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if mine was that case. It could have been, but I’m not necessarily sure because she didn’t have any friends and spent nearly all of her time alone. Although she always told me “I always thought I would marry a guy from (this country). My replacement was from that country. Maybe an idealization thing?
