[FONT=verdana, helvetica, arial][SIZE=-1]I got a call from my local gun shop today and they told me to come in and bring my wallet. They have my cell phone on speed dial and call me when any USMC or Vietnam related weapons show up.
They got in an NRA 100 Years of Service 1911 .45 ACP. The one they had was serial number 20 of 100. When I looked at it I first noticed the Iwo Jima grips on the right side and then when I looked at the map of Vietnam, they had Khe Sanh Combat Base engraved on the slide. They honored the past 100 years and had maps of the Pacific, Europe, Iraq and France on there, but Khe Sanh is the only base or battle shown on the maps.
I picked it up as my early Christmas present to me.
