The Colt .45
The Colt Model of 1911 is the definitive sidearm. This particular one was made in mid-1945 by Remington Rand, re-built by the Anniston Army Depot in October 1972, confiscated in early 2004 near Al-Qurna in Iraq, and destroyed shortly after. They get around, these warhorses.
This blog is an homage to the War Nerd, who was heavily into politics and strategy, while the War Geek is definitely into hardware. The War Nerd hasn't posted anything since 2008, however, so he's probably off the Web, alas...
