Re: Buttery-Sweet Dessert Protection
Thank you Sensei. (bows)
My Pony is apparently a close relative. I've not done extensive research, but from what I understand, well, let me copy/paste some info...
Rebranded Variants: the Colt Pony, Iver Johnson .380 and FI Model D
In the middle 1970s, Colt decided to offer a .380 auto, and chose to partner with Star instead of making their very own gun. The gun (to be called the Pony) was to be assembled in the US, presumably by Colt, from a Star DK slide & associated internals, with a U.S. made frame. Some reports specify steel, but if this is a DK, the frame should be alloy. Part of the US manufacture and frame was due to the 1968 Gun Control Act, which placed restrictions on importation of small handguns.
For some reason, after this product was announced, the Colt/Star partnership was dissolved and very few Colt-branded guns seem to have been sold. Iver Johnson bought the U.S. manufacturing rights to the gun, and sold a number of them. Apparently quite a few frames were made in anticipation of the Colt deal, as all the early Johnson serial numbers start with "CPA" (Colt Pony Automatic). It is also possible that some slides were made in the U.S. by Iver Johnson (some manufacturing marks and methods vary), but all the small parts were Spanish imports by Star. Iver Johnson also made at least one commemorative edition based on the Model D Pony, for a US Border Patrol anniversary in 1994; these all have "USBP" serial number prefixes.
This gun was also sold under the Starfire name, though I am unclear if this was a pure Star pistol with the requisite modifications to be allowed under CGA '68 or was simply another brand under the Iver Johnson banner. All of these guns are identical to the DK models discussed above. FI also sold the model D as an FI-made gun (Firearms International, not to be confused with FIE), with the model D designation. No Star branding or importation marks appear, so this may also be a related endeavour where an essentially Star pistol is sold under another name entirely. There are some reports of FI selling the import-marked version as the "Garcia Model 30" as well. This appears to be the same gun, just marketed differently, and presumably (due to the importation) made by Star and simply imported.
I've had it for about 10-12 years now. I saw it in a case of used guns and asked to see it - fit my hand like a glove, so I bought it. I carried IWB and discovered that I wasn't fond of the safety digging into my side. Enter the Colt Pony. I haven't carried the FI in years, but as I said, it's sort of too "odd" to get rid of. I saw one at a gun show about 6 years ago and it was in really poor condition - never seen one since.I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

We had plain crescent rolls for dinner tonight, then I saw this thread...LOL
I always eat my regular apple pie warmed AND with vanilla ice cream if we have it...or just put the pie in a bowl and pour milk on it. I think your crescent roll apple dessert would be good in bowl with milk too. Yum!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mK2JYfZAmA When will America become America?

Re: Buttery-Sweet Dessert Protection
WTF I have a google covering the recipe. I love baked apples but they got to be soft. I'll try to quote it to write the recipe down.
I hit refresh and it went away, it was cutting out the most important part.
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 can (12 oz.) Mountain Dew
Cinnamon to tasteLast edited by 7998; November 22nd, 2010 at 09:46 PM.
