I found 2 pistols today - the first is a Saturday night special piece of Titanic junk that I'll give to the police for destruction:

The second one is a prize - I'll let the police run a ballistics test on it to see if it's stolen or has been used in a crime, but if not, they're gonna have to give this one back to me...... US Army issue M1911A1 Colt .45cal semi-auto sidearm. It was a little gummed up and had a couple of small surface rust spots, but after I dunked it in transmission oil and cycled the action a few times it seems to be in great condition. It'll go to a good gunsmith for re-parkerizing - or some quality finish...... and then I'll see if I like it any better than the 9mm Browning Hi-Power.
