Still love the 1911. In fact, this one particular handgun is probably my favorite pistol in the world. I brings joy and comfort to me when I just look at it… Warm fuzzies when I hold it… Bliss when I shoot it. As is… no modifications. Just Use and Care and a bit of some …
I’m going to throw down some hate on a gun company favored by many. Kimber. They freaking suck. Kimber is backlogged so deep, ordering anything from them is freaking useless. The little Solo pistol they put out is virtually vaporware as we’ve had some on order since last summer and still haven’t seen any. We …
The Gun Community is starting to drift away from the .40. A lot of Trainers that I respect are moving away from the .40 to the 9mm. They can shoot faster with it. They have their reasons… Cost of ammo is higher than 9mm, it has more recoil than 9mm, and you can get more …
The other day I was shooting with The Fellas, and my buddy gave me a loaded magazine and an empty pistol. The XD Tactical in .45. He had stippled the gun the same way I did my Glock… and I have to say that it really improved the feel. I also have to say that …
I keep coming back and looking at it, handling it… Yes, another 1911. Then I read a good review. I don’t know why, I am pretty much a Glock Guy now… I don’t need another 1911. I don’t even want another 1911… but I want this 1911. Freak. Working at a Gun Store has a …
Terry let me shoot his Double Eagle. A unique pistol that I actually like. What it is, is Colt trying to make the 1911 into SIG. It didn’t really work all that well, and they did have some problems… but I would have liked to have seen Colt make a better effort in the idea. …
The SIG P220 Compact SAS. It’s all I want for Christmas… just this… In all seriousness, I’ve always wanted a compact P220 and have never had one. My respect for the P220 goes so far that I could almost forgo the companionship of 1911′s, in favor of the P220′s. I’ve had several full sized …

I had a message about getting a Springfield 1911 ready for duty use. The fellow was concerned about having to replace parts, which is a common misconception. You only have to replace a part if it breaks, and you don’t know if a part is going to. Preemptive replacing of all the small bits when …
Damn it, Man. I don’t need a new 1911 .45. No, I don’t. Why do I need another one?
We had a Kimber Desert Warrior that had come in on trade some time ago. It’s been riding the shelf almost completely untouched for a couple months. I remember selling the gun to the fellow years ago. This was before Kimber took they QC Nose Dive. I examined the gun carefully. He carried the gun …
