    Re: Question about Kimber 1911s XTR, I've owned 3 Kimbers. Only one of them (Tactical Custom 2) did I really ever put through its paces. That was even an external extractor model!! None of them ever gave me issues. In my TC2, i put about 2k-2500 rounds through it. Would I buy another...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Which 1911 for $1000

    Re: Which 1911 for $1000 Zanshin, As you and others have stated, the Springfield line of Loaded, and MilSpec models are nice! Colt base models if you can find one. They still make a pretty nice pistol for a production piece. Some minor details here-n-there, but short of ordering a...

    Re: Advice deciding on a 1911 in the $1500 range Some would argue the Colt for its collect-ability. some people go crazy for the pony. Now that it seems some military branches may adopt the Colt 1911, some would say get that. Colt makes a nice gun, just the plastic Main spring housing...

    Re: Got my new S&W Bodyguard 380 yesterday... It's all in the feel to the end-user. I looked at the LCP, but it didn't quite do it for me. PPK and P230 bit the web of my hand HARD!!! Then the BG380 comes out. I LOVE mine for when clothing/circumstances don't allow a .45. I have about 650...

    Re: 1911 Mags, what do you like? Thanks for the feedback everyone!! Seems like Wilson's are the more advertised and commonplace mags, but if someone knows about Tripp mags, then they're turned onto those too! I'll have to place an order for some. Thanks again for the valuable input! -G45

    Re: My new pistol has arrived!! :) Yes, steel frame. I totally understand why people get alloy/aluminum frame 1911's, I do. But, I just believe an all steel frame is the way to do it. I won't even discuss the polymer 1911's that some companies will do. And I even like my Glocks as well...

    Re: Glock 36 Reliability I've had my G36 for about four years, and it's a real pleasure. It's the piece I carry most frequently when off-duty. I love to carry my 1911's, but when I'm feeling lazy, I get my G36. It's the first handgun I ever named, and kept the name. I named mine "Spanky"...
