Hi Jason. I hear ya'! I bought the pistol from my brother in law who purchased it from an old woman in Middlebury CT. Her deceased husband brought it back. (well...actually deceased husband's are incapable of bringing back weapons, or anything for that matter. He was ALIVE when he brought it back & died later) (I'm being a wise guy...sorry) .She looked like an honest old woman who wouldn't make the story up, but......maybe her husband told her that tale when he got back home.

I live in Naugatuck. It would be nice to get one of those licenses to not have to go thru a FFL dealer. Are they hard to get?

For the other gentlemen, I'm not a Hospital Corpman and the Navy ships are fully manned so when we get activated in the reserves now we don't go on ships which is fine with me. I spent 3 years on an aircraft carrier and have been on many small ships as well. I've had my share of sea duty. Three of my Navy Reserve friends have recently been activated. After training one is headed to Afghanistan, the other (a girl) is going to Kuwait, and the other one doesn't know where he's going yet.
