Was going to jokingly say I'll name them Bob and Ted,
Holstered one reminds me of PPK, lines, except the hammer.

:thumbs2: I still do what looks like a modified Weaver. I get odd looks at the range.

It isn't out of choice. Broke the elbow of dominant arm playing football when I was young, and the arm won't fully straighten; ends up about 12 degrees from straight; I get almost two inches more reach from my non-dominant arm. Same reason I could never compete in power lifting: I can't do a legal bench press because I can't lock-out the arm. Doesn't bother me or limit me otherwise. It just makes me a Forever-Weaver. :mrgreen:
