    Hello from Iowa!!!!!

    Greetings from a newbie in Iowa. I have had my CW since July but was not carrying at all (long story). A recent fender bender that resulted in an assault on me by a tire iron wielding road-rager (I ended up with a cracked rib and sprained wrist - he recieved a broken nose and dislocated shoulder) has made me decide to carry on a daily basis. I am currently on the hunt for a Commander sized 1911 for my daily carry. Between this forum and the 1911 fourm there is a wealth of information !!!
