1911 fans, you may groove on this

The 1911 Syndicate YouTube channel did a video on the evolution of the Browning-designed Colt semiautomatic pistols from 1900 to the 1911, including live fire of almost all of the guns along the way. Contains some language that might not be good for younger kids - nothing hard R, mind you, but words that you might not want your four-year-old picking up. I'd seen this sort of information on C&Rsenal before, but not with live fire.

This is also the first I heard of the Browning museum in Ogden. I admit, I have fantasies of arranging an Appleseed pilgrimage, a caravan to the museum, but I think maybe I'll focus on earning my red hat before I get distracted by a project like that.
"If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?" -- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
