My focus lately has been 10/22’s and MK4’s. I think I need a 10/22 RSI. New production or lightly used. Anything RSI is on my list.

Traded for this MKII at a local show in Phoenix about a decade ago. Romeo 5 works well for my uses.

Nice description of your Girsan. I have the SA35 and like it a lot so far. I have a Girsan 1911 that has not proven reliable due to extractor issues. The internal parts of my 1911 are the cheapest material available. I do enjoy disassembly and parts replacement when reworded with performance...

Sig P226 40 S&W is a big handgun and a delight. CZ 75B is big also and heavy but so nice. Bill

I have to select the classic Ruger No.1.
