Taildragger; Thanks for the pm. Sent you another.

Chuckles; Wholeheartedly agree with you re the subject of carrying a pistol in PNG. I was also a member of the Pistol club in Moresby and had my own S&W but in .22 cal.
It was a similar model to the club pistols but with a 6 in barrel which made it somewhat bulky and impossible to carry all the time. But I rarely drove around at night without it, albeit on the floor next to my seat. And I still have it, legally on a collectors licence.
But once again I must mention that I never had a moment where I felt that I may have to use it. Must have just been lucky I guess.

You only live twice. Once when
you're born. Once when
you've looked death in the face.
