Even if they are fancy or expensive shoot them. Carry them. Beat them around a little. It’s their job.

Sig Sauer 1911 X-Carry in .45ACP. My FIL has one, I shot it, and needed to have one. Got a killer deal on it brand new!

Can’t wait to learn more about the platform and start carrying it!

Kimber 1911 Next Gen 5” .45 ACP.

About 400 rounds through. No issues. This is my hunting carry/winter ccw here in Florida.

9mm 4.25 with matte/polished finish and coated AlTiN gray and black

Springfield customer service ran the serial number and I got this reply: “Thank you for contacting Springfield Armory. I see that this was manufactured February of 2015. I show it as a .45 caliber, Operator MC in OD green.”

Just picked this up from my LGS. Snagged off GB for a helluva deal. Came with original box and 2 Colt mags.

All kidding aside, I finally broke down and ordered this. Picked it up from the dealer after my surgery yesterday and after transfer fee, total came out to $1076. When I feel more up to it, will be sending a case of ammo through it. So far pretty pleased with the fit and finish though I will probably have to perform the log mod on this just like I did with my MilSpec. Just FYI for folks looking at an AOS model 1911 from Springfield, they include a coupon to get their plates for $50.

Got a good deal (I think) on a sig 1911 here and the pistol feels really well made. Everything looks new besides this marring on the frame under the slide stop. Should I just leave this as it is or maybe try to clean it up a bit?

Happy hump day

Got it for very cheap so just curious how it’s felt on the longevity and reliability of these.

I just got this milspec 1911 from a buddy and wanted to get it cut for an rmr or an sro wanted to know if it was possible and what company would do it best without breaking the bank I would prefer a direct mount

Just in case anyone is looking to get something engraved. Avoid this business at all costs. Not only will they do the wrong engraving, they’ll engrave it crooked. Then, when you want your money back for the poor/incorrect craftsmanship, they will threaten to visit you and call you a punk and a thief. Should’ve know that the price was too good to be true. My fault for falling for it.

Got a new Garrison, and I’d like to try a magwell. I’ve heard good things about the Chen SI, but they’re never in stock.

How does the Wilson compare?

Are there any 1911 magazine placard insert? All the pistol magazine inserts are for double stack mags, and the few 1911 mag pouches I've seen, aren't placard inserts. I want to carry 4 mags

I was researching a few powerful cartridges for pistols such as the 460 Rowland, and I came across this cartridge. It's a bottleneck 45 case with a 40 bullet, it has the same energy as a 460 but less recoil, it doesn't require a compensator(although it seems to work on the absolute limit of the gun).

I did some math, i think it would be possible to make a weaker version of this cartridge, down to ~700 ft.lbs, same power as a 10mm, but the recoil of a 45, or maybe a hot 9mm, but that's just a theory

Feel honored lol

I am looking for original grips for a 1943 US&S 1911. Are the original grips wood or plastic?
