Interesting. I'd never heard of those before.

I didn't either until I saw one at a competition. They make chamber brushes for five & six-shot models.

Ordered a pocket holster from Kramer last night. I sure hope it doesn't take the whole 7-8 weeks their website quotes just to get here.

I am not going to make the mistake that I made with the Model 19 I used to have, which he now owns.

Here's one like mine for sale:

West German marked SIG P230

Judging by the serial number, that one's ever so slightly older than mine. Wish I knew what I did with my original grips, but I swapped them out for a Hogue grip pre-Anchorage. The plastic ones were better for carry; they were less clingy. Been meaning to buy it some nice wood grips for some time.

You know, one of these days, we gotta do a thread on the GC "culture" - the irish mafia, Candymans magic crate, Mortimer the cat, Bad Idea threads..

You realize I had to hire a stunt double for Mortimer, right? From the time he was able to crawl, my boy fell in love with Mortimer (Mo-Mo) and the two became virtually inseparable... After a few trips through the washing machine, I realized that Mortimer could only take just so much of that treatment, so "M-2.0" arrived courtesy of Amazon. The boy never noticed the switch (the only difference was the new version lacks whiskers), although I suspect he'll be upset with what I did at some point when he is older. But Mortimer will live to pose with firearms and shooting accessories another day.
