There are not very many. I bought this in 2015. I should wear it more.

One thing that I appreciate about Roland is that he is one of a few who is willing to take watches in trade toward purchase

commander and I recently got a Kimber stainless steel ultra carry. The Ruger now sits in the safe, the Kimber is the ultimate carry gun in my opinion.
