"The rifle is a weapon. Let there be no mistake about that. It is a tool of power, and thus dependent completely upon the moral stature of its user. It is equally useful in securing meat for the table, destroying group enemies on the battlefield, and resisting tyranny. In fact, it is the only means of resisting tyranny, since a citizenry armed with rifles simply cannot be tyrannized."

Looks cool as all Get Out.

I've always had a nagging question about lightening cuts to a slide...

Aside from the aesthetics, do the lightening cuts (and corresponding weight reduction) in the slide, impact or affect the cycling of the handgun?

i would think that lightening the slide a lot would require changing the recoil spring
i assume the recoil spring is tuned to the weight of the slide

No, I think you're right. Why would anybody want to shoot reduced loads in a gun like that? Steel challenge?
