Took out my old Colt shorty yesterday and

I can't think of a handier little carbine - except my Marlin shorty ;)

Seriously, it runs like a Swiss watch - I have thought about changing it, but I don't want to mess with a good thing.

I keep threatening to build some manner of flat topped fancy gun, but I can't think of a way to improve on this one. Maybe a thousand dollar optic would change my opinion.
