Ever seen a left-handed monkey wrench?
There is a reason why the .25 ACP cartridge has been popular in this country for over a century. Many, many oldtimers, including my grandad, carried a Colt 1908 in their front pants pocket every day. I never knew he had it until shortly before he passed away. We were out in his back yard one day, and he asked me if I had ever seen a left-handed monkey wrench. When I said no, he grinned and pulled the little Colt out of his pocket.
Grandpop Homer grew up rough in rural Georgia in the early 1900s. He was a little guy, but you didn't mess with him if you knew what was good for you. I think the sheriff finally took that Colt away from him after he chased a smart-mouthed yuppie down the town's main street with it when 'way up in his 80s.
