Default Handyman Special

Which is exactly why special ops units are being issued a newer .45.

If you try to buy a newer 1911 .45 expect to wait for delivery

Soldiers are complaining about the current M855 round not having enough
[kick] ass. There was an AP article in the Houston Chronicle today
saying that soldiers say the round is not heavy enough for the close-in
type of fighting that is the norm in Iraq and Afghanistan and does not
stop an enemy combatant quick enough. What do you expect from a 69 grain
.22 caliber bullet?
