He missed his .45

Old school, love it

I had the comic it's from as a kid.

Lol, I never knew Batman carried a 45

Yeah. In 1939 he had a .45 for a year and a machine gun on his plane. The panel is from 1965 when he got the yellow circle around the bat symbol on his costume.
I spoke with editor Julie Schwartz about this issue at Pulp Con in the 90s. They caught heck over him using a gun in the story. But they too remembered the 39 version where he did.

Nice, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Batman was always cool.

Still have the one I carried for my first 9 yrs in. 🙂

I carried the Commander, and I bought a Colt Mustang just because I thought it was cute, never carry it.

These and a Mdl 19 snub are all I have left. Hubby has 7.

Excellent. I hope you are both getting your range time. I can barely see my closest neighbor's house so I can shoot safely when I want, but you can never over practice.

Yes. I think I told you once that a neighboring farmer built a really nice range pit and we have an open invitation. 😁

Over the years I've owned over a dozen m1911s. A Randall was my first. Then a Colt. Kimber compact. Combat Commander. Multiple Springfield Armorys, etc.

My favorite is this Springfield.

Here's a Batman panel from a maxi series a few years ago set early in Batman's career.
