Quote of the day
If you have fully made up your mind to shoot if you have to, the chances are that you will not have to.
Julian Hatcher, 1935
(thanks again Steve)
This was in the June "Jeff Cooper's Commentaries" as well.
Speaking of which, the Smith&Wesson 1911 looks rather neat. Since S&W has been sold back to the colonies, are they still on the no-buy list? I say this having bought three S&W's in the past.

Posted by: Tom Burroughes on June 10, 2003 09:30 AMTom, it took you this long to find "Pallas"? Have you read "The Probability Broach" yet?
I shouldn't talk, I haven't read his book "Hope" yet. I sent two emails to El Neil asking for a price quote for an autographed copy (to give as a gift, heh), but he never replied...
