Best gun tale?

I have just passed the 3 million mark on my Sig 229. When I picked the gun up in the early 90's, I thought, here is a nice little gun--but an aluminum frame? So I began my quest to tourture test it. First I dropped the gun in a vat of sulfuric acid--no M/Fs. Next, I had the gun dropped from a helicopter hovering over a live volcano at Mount Tiki-Tiki--no M/Fs. Next, I had the gun frozen in neon at 40 degrees below absolute zero. Not only did it function--it was cryro accurized! Next, I had the gun dragged behind a land speed record holding rocket car at the salt flats--no malfunctions. At this point, the finish began showing a little wear. I decided to have the gun black -T'd. To test this, I had the gun bead-blasted with industrial diamonds. After going through five Bosch 66xxx66 mega blasters I decided black -T was all right. Then I fired 3 million triple charged extra-thinwalled 40 S&W rounds through the gun in two afternoons--no malfunctions.
Unfortunately, the problem with the finish coming off really keeps me from recomending the 229.
Next time I'll tell you about my REALLY TOUGH long-term G17!
 
This is a stupid thread. What I...NEED...to know is whether to carry silvertips or solids in my Tomcat when in bear country.
 
I left a glock laying out on the porch and my bulldog ate it and now when he breaks wind , he blows the back of his dog house off!He really likes the chili.With beans. :rolleyes:
 
thefederalweasel, you almost had everyone going but you blew it at the end. Bush was the pres for the Gulf War. Good try though. ;)

I use my Glock for protection against polar bears. Just let him eat your stong side arm while holding the pistol, then shoot straight up to hit the spine. Use caution when withdrawing the gun as the bears teeth can cause an AD.
