NICE.....I too have lost two Colt .45’s while boating down on lake Ponchetrain while visiting my brother...I feel your pain.
So many of us have suffered TBA’s—we all need basic boating courses.
You will play hobb trying to retrieve them with a magnet! Back before 1965, the city of New Orleans used to dispose of unwanted and seized handguns by throwing them in the lake.
Your will be just one of many rusted beyond use.
