The P226 40th Anniversary
- Thread starter Hammer67
- Start date
Close enough.IMO, the P226 should have been the US Service pistol vs. the Beretta 92.
All I have is the 226 look-a-like Arex Zero 1.

Next thing you're gonna tell me you don't know how to make a Churchill martini and you have no idea the relevance of the year 1066. Some Englishman you are.

You need to stop while you’re ahead. Take the small victory and enjoy the moment. William the Conqueror should have had a better publicist. 1000 years later and all anybody talks about is poor King Harold getting an arrow in the eye.Next thing you're gonna tell me you don't know how to make a Churchill martini and you have no idea the relevance of the year 1066. Some Englishman you are.

He was a Danish king in the 900s I think.

Correct. He introduced Christianity to Denmark.

I was confusing Harold with the other Harald vying for the throne of England. It is interesting though that Scandinavians spell it with an A.
I kinda think the English are the last vestiges of the Vikings. Interestingly my wife, born in Missouri a couple years after me, has more British blood in her than my sister in law who was born in Staleybridge. My sister in law's father was Ukranian. I tell my wife she is a viking. She has the demeanor that's for sure.

I thought he was a Pagan and revolted against Christianity coming to Denmark ??

Harald Bluetooth? Technically Vikings were Pagans and Harald was Viking, but he saw the way. He’s also responsible for uniting many of the Viking tribes and effectively ushering in modern Denmark.

I figure between the 40,000 times Vikings invaded and the Norman conquest it'd pretty much be French and Viking these days.
