Yeah, the light tent did a much better job of showing-off your replica revolver, Temma. Well done !

I recently purchased a new light tent .... the cardboard box cube that I built many years ago was beyond repair.
Here's an old duty weapon of mine. Before Gaston Glock wooed L.E. agencies across America, many depended on their 3rd Generation Smith & Wessons.

Thanks.

The first was done with a light tent, but in a very rudimentary state.

I prefer to build my own out of PVC pipe since it's so easily broken down or reconfigured.

I'm not a fan of conventional double action pistols that can't be carried cocked and locked, but that's a very nice image.

Hate to sound ignorant (but it wouldn't be the first time ), but I've owned and carried a number of DAO and DA/SA semi-autos and am not aware of any that can be carried "cocked and locked". Which DA semi-auto are you referring to that allows this?

I'm pretty sure he's referring to 1911 style pistols.

Ah, that makes sense. I was thinking that there was some "unconventional" DA pistols that could be carried cocked and locked, which would seem to defeat the purpose of a DAO or DA/SA gun.

CZ-75B and its offshoots.

Since you can no longer get .40 S&W Hi Powers, I've thought of getting a .40 S&W CZ75 and converting it to full time single action.

I get it now, you prefer SAO.

Nice 1911, and trauma plates.
