Well done doc! :thumbs2: Beautiful work on the guns! Cutting out a smiley face with shooting the gun is pretty neat too!

Good shooting!

Hey Doc,

I was standing in the lane next to you! You were collecting brass, and I was trying to keep my .40 brass from mixing with your 9mm brass.

You are a very good shot, even though you gave all the credit to the gun.

Hope to see you again.

Hey, Vic! Good to have met you. I went straight from the range to my gunsmith after I got pinched a few times with the stock grip safety. Can't wait to sling some more brass with the new beavertail intalled!

Shoot me a pm, and let's go shoot!
