Howdy all!
Major the Super is a custom build, Caspian frame, ATI slide, Sig ramped barrel, the internals are either Wilson or Colt. I built it last year, did most of the work myself and had a local gunsmith do the trigger for safety. Nice shooter with one of the finest triggers I have ever gotten on a 1911.

Evening all.

Just got back from work. Nothing noteworthy happened today.

I like the desantis pocket holsters. I'm also looking at a Vedder holster for iwb carry. They're custom molded kydex, and pretty thin.

Kid, I have one of the Crossbreed supertuck for my Ruger SR9c and I love it, very comfortable even for a fat guy like me, something to look into if you want an IWB holster.

Living in a tropical climate light clothing is a must. Dockers Pants and an Oxford sport shirt is my daily wear.
I have found right pocket carry to be the most comfortable, easiest access and less printable carry for me.
I don't care for the IWB poke for all day carry.

Left is my Vest Pocket Gelesi , center the Beretta 950BS and the S&W model 36 or alternate Mod. 60. all are easily hidden in the rather deeper pocket of  Dockers style Pants. All are Desantis pocket holsters,

Have a bright sunny day here, not what the weather liars called for, Temps are 99degrees, 92 in the shade, high humidity. Good day to stay inside cleaning guns or reading the gun forums on the computer.

Coffee is up

Had a very large Pecan branch break half off.  It now blocks the drive near the barn. Will see if I can get step son here to help get it at least off the driveway.  This happened between like 4 and 6 pm. We both had driven under it several times yesterday.  This branch is 12 inches at trunk and 25 foot long. Typical old growth Pecan.

All the critters fed and watered and turned out to find shade.

So Suzanne and I decided we could tackle the Pecan limb. I said earlier 25 feet but in reality, closer to 40 feet long.
I would like to share something to all here. Because of my lack of lungs... I am on Oxygen 24/7. So my time doing manual labor is very short. It is what it is. Things like using equipment with pull starters is out of the question. Recently we had been looking at Battery powered equipment. I have a trunk of battery hand tools. With no issues with them. Yet I wasn?t sure about a chainsaw or pole saw. Both important for property maintenance. Without a word mentioned about a month ago our oldest boy showed up with the Lowe?s brand 80 volt saw.  He helped his mother with some things around his grandfathers old house. Since he and his wife to be will soon be moving in there. The next week he brought the accompanying pole saw. Plus a extra battery. This morning after feeding, she and I put them on the truck and took them to the tree. I was impressed with the torque the saw provided. She and I had all the branches cleared off and were cutting the limb when Justin showed up. He and I were able (mostly him) to get the limb cut off and sectioned enough to move. If you are thinking about the battery powered saw. I think they might be ideal for the home owner. I have plum run a couple good Stils till they would run no more. So I know nothing last forever. I don?t know what the life is but I am sold on them.
