So my Stepdad passed about a year and a half ago. My Mom texts me the other and says, I was cleaning out closets and found a gun. Okay, what is it? So she sends me a picture of this Norinco 1911. I take it home, give it a good tear down and ultrasonic cleaning, and put her back together. Take it back to Mom, and she can’t rack the slide, tells me to just keep it. I’ve got some grips ordered, will probably put a beavertail on it, and somewhere around here there’s a box of 1911 goodies. Now if I can just remember where I put it. :ROFLMAO:

A good budget 1911. I shot and carried one for years.

I like the Norincos 1911s
Had a few over the years
They’re good starter 1911, mines always end up with almost all EGW, Ed Brown and Wilson parts down the road.

Probably the route I'll take too. Just gotta find that damn box. Seems good and tight, hoping I got a shooter.

Do you find after you handle your Norinco and think you have had enough…..half hour later you want more of it?
 
New video is up with the H&K MP5 shooting some steel gongs @ 200 yards with the Rugged Obsidian 45, and the new Holosun SCRS-MRS on top (100 yard zero).

The camera didn't pickup the impacts very good this time, so you really gotta listen for them after the shots.

 
This isn't my pistol or snake but thought it worthy of posting here. This could be entitled, "A Black Mamba Kills a Python."

No pythons here, yet. But cutting my grass last week as I approached the end of my fence a 6' king snake scurried back into my yard ;) I usually don't mess with snakes unless they become a threat to me or my domestic animals. Last one I killed was a baby timber rattlesnake that was where I had been laying on the ground working on a truck just moments before. My dogs were after this healthy copperhead, hate killing them I think they're beautiful animals.

Took one of my friends a week ago that I have known since middle school out to zero his new Jagerwerks slide with an Aimpoint ACRO cut he just got back after getting it back. Jagerwerks did a fantastic job! I love how low the Dawson BUIS is, it looks and feels great for an old Gen 3 Glock.
I zeroed it for him at 10 yards with 115gr Critical Defense (What we had on hand) and the 124gr S&B was pretty close to that zero as well.
I also helped his wife with her new P365 while I shot my Franken-P365 Spectre Comp with a Wilson Combat 365XL frame and my Glock 19.5 MOS with an Acro which is my carry gun. - Richard
