Doctor took me off a oral diabetic med and started me on this, my kidneys are not the greatest & she said this is easier on kidneys than what I was taking for type 2 diabetes 

Only a few weeks into it & can’t really tell any difference. Have an appointment with a nephrologist at the end of the month & not looking forward to that…….Not to mention the nuclear medicine hear test or the echocardiogram I’ve got….

Getting old sucks, never thought I’d be alive now so there’s that 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[FPC News] FPC Concludes its Briefing in Case Seeking to End California Carry Ban fo

With me being a big 1911 guy, I've always wanted a dedicated 1911 in 22, or at least a good conversion upper. I've been eyeballing them for a long time, and had a couple frames sitting here with hopes of finding a upper.

It finally all came together this week when my local gun shop had a used Kimber custom II 45 come in with a Kimber 22 target rimfire conversion kit. Interestingly the kit came with double stack PARA mags, but thats not big deal. I have some proper mags on the way.

One of the frame options I had sitting here for the eventual 22 build was a Kimber alloy frame. It's no secret that I am a big fan of alloy frame 1911s, and I threw that upper on that frame. 

Boy, it's even better than I had hoped.The alloy frame is very light weight with the alloy slide, and the whole gun weighs less than my Ruger mk4 22/45 lite. 

The real deal sealer was the accuracy. I don't have any magazines so I had to single load it. I fired a couple rounds at a 45 caliber hole in a USPSA target to see where it was hitting which was about a inch and a quarter low, and held accordingly. This group was 10 rounds at 10 yards.

Can't wait for the magazines to get here so I can really go to town with this thing.

I don’t think I have ever filmed this shot before. Figured it was time.
