Yes, my brothers and sisters, it's Sunday morning, and time for me to join my fellow congregants in our ritualistic rites of devotion.
What denomination, you ask? Glad to prostlytize answer that for you! We're of the One True Faith, that of St. John Moses Browning, of course.
Here, Brother Moriarty quotes from the Gospel of John:
1 In the beginning was the 1911, and the 1911 was THE pistol, and it was good. And behold the Lord said, thou shalt not muck with my disciple John's design for it is good and it workith. For John made the 1911, and lo all of his weapons, from the designs which I, the Lord, gave him upon the mountain.
And today, I shall render offerings of burnt gunpowder and copper-jacketed lead precious metals.
Can I geet an Amen?
Aaaaa-y MEN

Actually, the one, TRUE faith is the Church of the Knobby Tyre, with services held on the mountain biking trains in and around Austin, Texas every Sunday morning. There are chapters in Singapore, Oregon, and France now...
Or at least we have some call to being a TRUE faith while our boy Lance is going for his sixth straight win showing the Frenchies that we can beat them even at their own sport.

If you want to be a Knight of the Holy Equestrian Order, be sure to grab your shield. Hopefully we'll get someone with a better art program than MS Paint to nice it up for us, but this one shrinks down all right.

Amen brother!

AMEN!
I attended devotions yesterday, on a Saturday... does that make me a Seventh-Day Shootist?

A hearty "Amen" to my Brother-in-Blog, and many glorious X-rings to you.
Whilst I kneel at the altar of Ruger the Sturmest and the 357 disciples, I openly covet thy 45 of 1911

Yeah though i walk in the valley of death, Saint Brownings disciples Heckler and Koch shall always be at my side. With a relic of St. Browning himself, touched by the great Kimber, residing somewhere unbeknownest to a passerby.
