I'm with you, brother. If the Vigoro hit the Mixmaster today I'd reach for my rattle-trap, '52 GM .45. However I must admit, quickly closing the favoritism gap is a NRM GM .38 Super, bone stock with the exception of mild trigger work and a hand-fit barrel bushing....one of my favorites is an ugly government I have that has been through heck, rattles like a can of BBs, Shoots like my gold cup NM, and has never has an issue,
