I'd say you got a great deal! Very nice!
So as some of you might remember, I custom built a Gun locker from an old 7up Vending machine. It turned out really nice, But I have been letting go most of my shotguns , only keeping a couple "High End" ones. So I really didn't need the Gun locker that I built. So I put an Ad on Armslist, This morning and after a few calls, Someone finally made me an offer I couldn't refuse. He offered me my choice of an Spike's ST-15 AR ( AR's are foreign to me, never owned one before) or a Almost brand new Kimber Custom II with two mags, and 100 rounds. Needless to say I went with the Kimber. Two hours later, He showed up with a trailer and I helped him load it up with a huge smile on my face. I can always build another safe, But opportunities for me to buy /own a Kimber are pretty slim. Heres a couple of pics. Just thought I would share. First the 10mm S&W and now the Kimber 1911 , Its been a great 5 days.

Q: Why do you carry a gun?
A: It’s much lighter than carrying a police officer

That safe was pretty neat, but I agree -- I would have traded it for a top shelf 1911 anyday! Congrats!!!
HE thinks, therefore I am! <><
Anyone think I should have went with the Spikes tactical AR15 (it was the ST15 mid-length model)?
Cool! Wish I'd bought that. Then if I got any intruders during a home invasion, I could offer them some..."refreshments".I custom built a Gun locker from an old 7up Vending machine
Nice gun!
"The fact is that the average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. It is the exclusive possession of a small and disreputable minority, like knowledge, courage and honor. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty – and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies." –- H.L. Mencken, Baltimore Evening Sun, Feb. 12, 1923
