Default Gotta have one...

The range where I usually shoot (at least when I'm shooting indoors) is also a gun store. Today, he had a little 3" Rock Island for $399... I've decided I must have one.

I am curious though - he also had a little 3" Colt and a 3" Springfield. All three have full length guide rods. Seems to be the norm in the small 1911's. Why is that?

Anyway, now I've got to figure out how to scrape up $400 - I just sent a big check to Bob Rodgers for a down payment on my project gun.
