When I was a very young man, I one made the idiot mark. I had heard of it before hand, I was determined not to make one, and determined to accept it if I did. Well, accept I did. Even got used to it when I would pick a 1911 up second hand. Over time something changed in me. 5-10 times a day I cruise the online classifieds, gun broker, and other outlets scouring for that deal of a lifetime on a 1911. The sight of the mark brings makes me cringe. Oh the horror, like the Hindenburg burting into flames, I nearly weep when I see a perfect pistol and scroll to the picture showing the slide release. I suppose I'll trot off downstairs to pour a glass of whiskey and drown my sorrow over having seen another almost perfect toy.
