Okay. Say if you had a 1921AC and an M1A1 (both original C&R) with mags, spares, and ample ammo for each. You had to get rid of one (meaning you could only keep one). Which one would you keep and why?

Why? Who needs a colt when you can have an original M1A1?

One need not be Confucius to solve that riddle. If you prefer a model that was stripped down because Russell Maguire needed to increase his profits during WWII, then the M1A1 is your choice.

Since it would be like selling a family member you could choose which one to sell me and I will give you visitation rights. I believe however, sleepovers would be ATF prohibitive. My preferance would be the 21AC but would care for the M1A1 as if it was one of my own.

My old Westy runs like a scalded ass ape. See any of the videos of it firing. Of course all internals are GI surplus. It'll put .45acp down range as well as any others. I think 1930srust will atest to that also,right mole killer?

I will menstion my WHM1 & PK in the same sentence. Mine now shoots just as good as a WW2 '28 that I shot at the range that a friend of mine had!

Keep both; sell wife or kids. I'd sooner sell kidney than give up either if I had even though I would have to give up booze. some things are worth it.
