Here they are. The ultimate collectors set. Two 1911s made from Gibeon Meteorite.

Cabot Gun manufacturers has built a pair of 1911's from meteorite. They are supposed to be going up for auction... Starting bid of only 4 million. Hey TAM one of them is a lefty! New EDC?

Those are neat. I need to go find some meteorites, make a pistol, and retire.
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

Kind of funny that they can’t accurately predict the weather past a couple of days yet they claim the meteor was 4.5 billion years old. Sure.....

I would love to have been involved in making them. Just cool.

I've heard about them before. Those are very spiffy. It would make a great set of guns to go in my collection. I'm just waiting for the day my investment in the state lottery retirement fund pays off.

I've seen 1911's made out of re-cycled tomato soup cans.

I think they were Campbells...
