Postum predates any Post cereal. Predates the 1911 and nearly as old as Marlin and Winchester 1894s.

while my mom got hooked on coffee for her 83yrs and so did I. But, I was sad Post dropped the stuff not too long back. Some fan of the stuff bought the rights and sells it now. No idea how the two compare what with lacking a sealed old jar.

they are building. They are phasing out the original 1911. Their 2011 is sort of a hybrid 1911 with a double stack mag and several other changes. Knowing STI it will be a good plan.

VERY HIGH QUALITY SINGLE ACTIONS MADE FOR STI BY HARTFORD ARMORY. I HAD A S&W REAR SIGHT AND A BARREL BAND FRONT SIGHT ADDED TO MINE.

they went in-house on frames. Very very well done machining. Gorgeous gun, but you already know that.

but had thought them perhaps a branch of USFA, considering location, name, and relative dearth of scratch built single-action makers in most towns, and seems I have been wrong all this time.
