You guys know the rule...it never happened without pictures
Well here's my contribution. Got the old Askins high ride instead of the yaqui slide in these pix.Attachment 224628Attachment 224629:chapeau
Well, it's not in the snow and cold but here it is. I guess there are snow flakes.
That is some righteous iron:chapeau
I like cold brisk days at the range. Not a lot of folks and I think the smell of burnt powder in the air smells better when it's cold and crisp outside. I think the smell "hangs" longer in the cold air as well.

So I've been carrying a full frame CZ for the past 21 years ( an 85 for fifteen years or so,until i cracked the frame after about 45k rounds, and a 75 sp-01 shadow since). I love it, it's my IPSC competition gun, I preached for years "carry what you shoot and shoot what you carry". I swore I'll never get a plastic gun. I love steel guns for shooting. But the d@#n thing weighs about 3 pounds, and my back started to complain years ago.
Last Tuesday, after about a year waiting for another gun permit, I got a pocket size tupperware (g26). Shot it enough to be certain I still hit where I aim, but it'll take me a few more trips to the range to be as comfortable with it... But I can stick it in my cargo pants front pocket ( holstered, of course) and forget it's there!
The journey to the dark side has begun. Let's see where it takes me.
Just so it's clear, I still intend to compete with the shadow. Its just that now that spring is here I don't have to figure how to conceal it in an owb cross draw holster (which was the only way I could carry all day without back problems)
Hard to beat the G26, my wife and I both have one. You can get a slip on grip adapter that slips over G19 mags for a fuller grip and 15 rounds if you want. They have "xgrip" stamped on them.
The G-26 is a great gun, and I like mine, after all it's a Glock, but the new G-43 single stack has become my constant companion.
(that is some bicycle inner tube around the grip of the G-26, in case anyone is wondering. :)
