A friend called me from Walmart one day. Asked if I needed a rifle sighted slug barrel with choke tube. They had 2 marked $35 each. He got one and I paid him for the other. Things like that just don’t happen to me but this one time.
I have an early express mag combo and have never had any rust issues.
I added sling studs, a better follower, +2 extension and spring, and a big head safety.

The first time I met my mentor friend is a fond memory. His wife and mine knew each other thru an exercise class. He called me and...
Good Lord no, never been in a knife fight.
I was a bouncer in a couple rough bars over 45 years ago but the only stabbing I witnessed was a jealous girl friend that stabbed her man in the neck with a bic pen.
