What if back in 1911, during the military pistol trials, the browning designed auto pistol, that we all know as the M1911, had not preformed as well as its competitor, the savage model 1907, which consequently let to the latter being adopted? Meaning the military adopted the funny looking savage over ol' slab sides. Would you have guy running around today at IPSC/IDPA matches with highly tuned savages for competition? Would Wilson Combat, Les Baer, Ed Brown, etc, all be in the business of making high end, hand fitted custom savages? Just thought I'd provoke some thoughts from some of you.

Communist, Nazi and New Dealer variants of collectivism would be stillborn. We would be living in a libertarian paradise, after a century of economic and scientific progress.
