First of all, I don't mean to insult anyone's believes, I am just curious from personal experiences and from what I have read here. 1. Do you consider 1911 type superior to non-1911? 2. Has there even been a true comparisons regarding top of the line 1911 vs top of the line non-1911? what was...

I trust you guys more than Buds for prices and good deals. BDA $429 plus tax only 1 mag and no box. I feel is kind of high. What do you think? Thanks for your help.

Took a while for her to come in but she is finally home. Going to the range on Saturday. Can't hardly wait.

Hello all. I was wondering why there is such an opposition to switching from lead ammo to say copper? 1 reason is obvious, price. But is it such a hig difference that even the NRA fights it or am I missing more important points? Thanks in advance for your comments / education

New to rifles and was thinking about this one. http://hoffgun.com/SP-SaigaSale.htm Regards

Does anyone have any experience on this?

I don't know why but my Sig P239 has not grown on me for some reason and I end up leaving for the range with my XDm 9mm and Glock 27 instead. Lately I find myself wanting to trade the Glock 27 for a Glock 19. (rather have another 9mm than 40sw.) and the Sig P239 towards a Ruger SR1911 (don't...

Hello all, Totally new to rifles and the only thing I know is that I want some for my limited gun collection. But first, I have some questions about them. 1. Why Bolt action vs lever vs semi-automatic? I would think that everyone would prefer semi-automatic due to their simplicity and ease...

Hello all, So far I only own pistols but have been thinking about buying 2 revolvers for my small collection. If you were adding only 2 to yours, what would they be and why? Willing to spend 500/600 for each and they can be used. 1 should be stainless and something that you can cc with if...

Hello all, Not familiar with the 1911 platform so please forgive my foolish questions. 1. Are all 1911 mags interchangeable between them regardless of manufacturer? 2. All 1911 after 1980 have ping block and anything before doesn't? 3. Are all 1911's single action? 4. Why are the 1970 or so...

Have been wanting to buy my first 1911 but for the first one, I wanted to buy used. My target 1911 were the Mil-Spec, Loaded or a used Colt. Not having had a lot of luck finding anything used that I liked, I put a down payment yesterday on the SA Loaded Champion. My problem? the Loaded...

Hello all, I have been in the market for a used Mil-Spec, Loaded or used Colt. Not having much luck and would like your opinion if it makes more sense to buy a used Colt for around $800 or just buy a new Mil-Spec or Loaded? Like SW 1911 also. Regards ps, it will be my first 1911.

with a plastic frame? Say something like the Glock plastic which can be pretty much abused but in a 1911 classic style whereas you get a much lighter pistol. Has anyone tried that? I know that for the classic 1911 guys they wouldn't probably be interested in something like this but how about...

Hello All, I normally buy new guns but lately have been checking out the used guns at my local gun shop and have seem some that were hard to pass up. Wondering what kind of experience posters here have when they have purchased used guns? good experience or bad? better to have 2 pristine used...

and you have a pistol that holds more. Obviously I know you have to turn in the magazines but do you have to buy new ones at your cost? Do large capacity pistols lose value in such state since you can't use them as intended? I live in Ct and they are trying to limit the magazine rounds to 10...

Hello All, Just came back from my dealer were I went to purchase the SA Mil-Spec 45acp ss. They had run out of them and did not have any to show me or shoot. Now the problem, while there, I saw a used SW1911 Koenig 2 tone, it is in new condition and they want $699 for it. My question, should...

Finally picking up my XDm this Thursday so is time to pick the next target, my first 1911. Which one would you pick? others to consider? 700/800 max. Use mostly for home / target. Important things to consider are accuracy, reliability, durability, worth the money. Thanks in advace for your...
