    We went to Old Chicago's on Powers for dinner and I saw a guy in his mid-20s open carrying an 1911. Thought it was a little unusual, but nobody seemed to mind.

    The wife was badgering me (I know, I know... I'm so punny!) about not doing enough housework, so I ran away and hid in my new workshop and built myself another lower. This one is a ATI polymer stripped lower. It seems amazingly strong and it fits very snug with the LPK and any of my uppers. The polymer shaves a few ounces off the total weight, but its barely noticeable in my hands.

    The bright side is: if it is crap and breaks like everyone says it will, I got 2 of them for the same price as an aluminum lower.

    Also, now I have a lower without an upper. I need to fix that...

    He wasn't drinking... probably because he was carrying.

    Could have drank it for him too.

    I probably wouldn't drink and open carry at the same time.
