July 1, 201016 yr I own several handguns from my "new shooter buying spree" last year and into this year. I kept shooting the ones that needed attention: Skill improvements and reliability testing of the guns and the ammo. Now that they all are solidly reliable, I find myself re-falling in love with them one after the other! After shooting my SP101 quite a lot lately, I've picked up my "old" guy again, an SA 1911 loaded. What a great platform and just such fun to shoot! Makes me look better than I really am, though for "combat" purposes he'll do to ride the river with But now I need to re-pick up my PM9, a sweet, little 9 that shows no wear after 1400~ rounds.... The PM9 is more accurate than it has any right to be being so small, maybe it's the sliky smooth DAO trigger. Replaced the recoil spring at about 1100 when two gold dot 115 rounds didn't fully chamber in a single mag. Perfect again, since. Ah the joys of rekindled love.......
July 1, 201016 yr My safe queens are two bolt action rifles that have both been shot once each. And that was just to sight the scopes in! They will always be safe queens, but everything else gets used and abused!
July 1, 201016 yr What an appropriate thread, I actually shot my SL6 and 7 today. They are however rifles 8-)
July 1, 201016 yr If you shoot them, do they still qualify as Safe Queens? It's all about how you talk to them. My SL7 is a "queen" my ak74 type thing is an "ugly slut".
