Just told my boss that Im opting into the working time directive which means I have to do no more than 48hrs a week after 30 years of 60 hours its a great feeling.
 
It's a springfield. It was a wedding present from the wife. The M9 is the standard service pistol, I was just referring to my own.

I own one too. Though my wife didn't buy it for me. You wife is a keeper. I have the original 1911 without any of the modern accoutrements, like a beavertail safety. Thus, I get severe hammerbite from it.

No obligations after work tonight. An evening at home.
 

Nice. I took my wife shooting a couple times - the .45 was a little too much for her. First round I think the kick almost made her drop the thing... pretty scary. I am thinking about getting her a 9mm XD, I haven't fired one yet but I hear that they are nice pieces, not too costly either.

It's nice out today - of course, I'm not flying...
 
For her? Not a good idea. I have a couple of Glocks. And with the wifey, if she limp wrists these auto's, they stovepipe. Get her a .357Mag revolver and load it with .38Special. I bought my wife a Ruger SP101 with 3inch barrel. Has enough heft not to kick and all she has to do is pull the trigger.

Oh. And get a lockbox with quick access combination. Don't want any little marines in the armory.

Yesterday, it was the 5th of may, V-day, of course. I was in Wageningen, the place where the german forces in Holland surrendered.There were still some allied WWII veterans from the US, GB and Canada marching in the parade, a magnificent sight. There was also a flyby of 2 Harvards, a Spitfire, a B25 and I think a Lockheed Ventura or Hudson.
