A New In The Box Colt M1911A1...

[DaveN]

I like the coin toss idea as I have 2 sons but only one is into collecting and his is modern stuff right now. Oh youth.
What's a 11B40 or is that a need to know only? Or if you tell me you'll have to kill me HA HA!
I know the Army, or Marines are always talking that way.
In the Air Force we just say " I was a Pilot" or "I'm a Fuel specialist" or in my case I'm a 57150? LOL!

11B was infantry. Typically you were a 11B20 till you made NCO then 11B40. Thanks for your sevice one and all.
