I can`t believe it.I arrested a stickup at the country club.I`ll give Bill the blow by blow.

I kid you not.Mom my bro. and I were going for the Walleye Pike.Im wearing shorts and a 1911.Mom says ;I`m not going unless you conceal that piece.Fine,I put on a Rugby shirt and slip a Walther TPH in my pocket.I thought about the Detonics chopped and channeled .45, but the 5" seemed comfortable and that was what I was wearing anyway.The owners know me, and I told them that I was armed, but it better be WW111 before they disturb my dinner.We do have a Sheriff`s Dept.for minor stuff.At least I`d finished dinner.They call it supper here.

Well done, Ghost.

You didn’t eat him at the country club, did you?

The Pike was cooked just right.I eat six pieces.The cash register has five ways to get to it.I went through the bar and told the guy that I had a .45 behind him.He had a Mod.10,take your finger out of the guard and raise your hands.If you don`t believe me ,you can turn and shoot me now.Turn around, and keeping the muzzle to the right, holster your weapon.No holster.Ok,stick it in your waistband.I holstered mine.Ok, now skin that iron you bag of guts.He didn`t want to do that so I told the girl that he would be at my table.call the Sheriff and two more bottles of Old Style.I let him keep the gun.The Deputies took it away from him.Hey;I could have gotten lucky.It was a fair chance with both of us seated.I paid for the beer.No civilians were endangered after control was taken.They weren`t exactally linining up behind us while we were drinking that beer.This is not proper police procedure.Who`s going to argue with the Marshal.I really didn`t bother to make the arrest.I did have to fill out those hated forms.But the SD took the coller.It`s their problem now.I should have killed the guy.Less paperwork.I do not have to worry about concealment much.Just enough to be civilized.The 1911 fits me well.I don`t think that a khuk would have had the desired effect.

Ghostsix there's a story for one of those armed response pages of a gun magazine. You actually let the guy keep his piece, and then sat down and had a beer with him? Insane!

I admire your style sir.
 
Ghostsix, Great Story! Of all the scenerios that could have played out (and gone bad),you picked the right one. A person who Likes Kuhkuris and 1911's has to have a lot of class :0). Never take a Knife to a gun fight,but if you do make Kuhkuri from Uncle Bill! BTW how do you guys do the smily faces?

Ghost does have a distinctive style. I think the thief was fortunate that Ghost had just finished a full meal.

: then ) , no space between. It took me a little while to get it.


 
I think you've been watching too many westerns, Ghost. High marks for style, very low marks for tactics!

Sure it was unapproved procedure.Tactics,no risk.style,worth it.In another 50 yrs.I`ll not have quite that oportunity.Now days.frisking someone without backup can be more risky than just controlling the situation.About `82,I ran into a similar situation.The neighbor lady called me at home with a burg. in progress.I wasn`t a cop.I told her to call the SD and hide behind the couch.I caught the guy out side spinning on the ice.It was cold,so I brought him in and waited for the cops for 40'; then finished my breakfast.He had a piece under a thick jacket.Mine was out.This was ID. so.he drew 3 yrs.You can see from the time differance how dull things usually are.We did have some fun here in `94 but ,I have to leave for The EAA Convention now.Later.

I think the ghost also marches to a different drummer. Maybe that's why he hangs out here.

Was this the Air Show, Ghost. Never a bigger bunch of great pilots, never more great old airplanes, and never bigger lies.
