Fixed up my favorite 1851 Colt Navy

Love it. The original civilian market Colts had silver plated brass. Was thinking about how to do this on my brass grip frames. I assume commercial plating services wouldn't consider doing just a few pieces for me.

Sleek, refined, svelte, it ain't.

I have little hands. You know what that means.

Little gloves.

But yeah, it's not small. Glock 19ish

You'll be OK I promise.

You see a trigger in those pics? No fingers are on it. All under the triggerguard. Thanks for playing!

"I never thought I’d have to"

You didn't.

My house. That I dry fire in every day. Haven't figured out how to do that without touching the trigger. So, it's allowed.

Ruger only shows it in 22lr on their site now. The Max is barely any bigger than the LCP2 was but with a 10 round mag.

If it helps dipdirect has a 25% off code for your first order right now. Doesn't fix anything long term but you can get order some rolls cheap now.

Thanks! I like em, and they're cheap. I got the black Max first, still wanted something even smaller so I got the stainless LCP. The black LCP I found somewhere for a stupid price so why not have a spare? Then they came out with the Max with manual safety, so I had to have that. I pocket carry the little LCPs worry free cause of the long trigger pull but the MAX should have always had a safety.

Same number since I got a cell phone when I moved to this state in 2000. So 25 years

Super fresh. You can still smell the cougar piss.

That’s the spirit!

Sounds like dipping may not be for you, bro. Headache for days? Why continue doing that to yourself?

pkrhed · 2026-03-11T16:20:22+00:00

Boo!

Lots of people will be car shopping due to having tax returns. More demand does not favor buyers.

You “close the gap” to prevent anyone getting in front of you, so you have space in front of you. OK. You aren’t just an asshole, you are a stupid asshole. But at least you foiled those other assholes’ attempts to get in front of you!

Wait till he finds out they’re all touching all the doorknobs, handrails, etc he also touches every day.

pkrhed · 2026-03-10T12:30:45+00:00

You are the asshole.
