How about a pic with almost all of my .45's? :) It has my Kimber Compact I, CDP I, Stainless Target II, Norinco and Springfield Mil-Spec in it. Then it also has my Carbon-15, M41, Makarov and Ruger MK II.

Here are almost 90 years of 1911's. Upper left is an Augusta Armory rebuild model 1911 with a Springfield frame and Colt slide. I think the frame is from 1918, if I recall correctly. Upper right is a WWII 1911A1 Remington Rand, lower left a WWII 1911A1 Ithaca, and lower right a current Springfield PB9108L.

AnthonyRSS and jmilliron, where in the world did y'all find those grips?!? :eek: Absolutely amazing, they are. :)

Also, what's the deal with almost everyone having skeletonized hammers and triggers? Are they for "performance" or just for looks?

[DelayedReaction]

My pics are pretty big, so I'm linking this one:

http://www.wam.umd.edu/~keving/P3120024.JPG

Also, what's the deal with almost everyone having skeletonized hammers and triggers? Are they for "performance" or just for looks?

I have a skeletonized hammer because spur hammers don't work with most beavertail grip safeties, and the traditional grip safety takes a nasty chunk out of my hand. As for the skeletonized trigger, I have a longer trigger because my hands are huge.

[AnthonyRSS]

Skeletonized triggers and hammers reduce lock time, making the gun easier to shoot accurately. And I have fairly big hands so a long trigger makes the gun feel less cramped.
Thanks for the compliment,
Those grips are Alumagrips, a buddy of mine got them for me for Christmas.

Yes, they're Gunner Grips. After years of T&E, I finally found grips that are perfect for me. Very grippy, yet not too sharp and built like a tank. It doesn't get any better.

I have had colts, kimbers and springfields. This is the one I kept. It has never let me down. It shoots anything I can put in a magazine. Replaced all the springs about a year ago thats it.

Sticky, mods? We might as well, since everyone will always enjoy this thread.

Well Eightball - seeing as the thread has lived long and prospered - and will not die ;) - yes I guess we can sticky.

I try not to sticky too much as forum can get ''sticky-heavy'' very easily but I think you have a point :)

I'll take your word for it. I've never seen a truncated cone .45 like that before, but all the .40 I see that's not HP is like that.

Here are almost 90 years of 1911's. Upper left is an Augusta Armory rebuild model 1911 with a Springfield frame and Colt slide. I think the frame is from 1918, if I recall correctly. Upper right is a WWII 1911A1 Remington Rand, lower left a WWII 1911A1 Ithaca, and lower right a current Springfield PB9108L.

This is my first gun. It's just a basic SA 1911 I bought used about 6 weeks ago. Now I just need to get him some "friends".

BTW, I've been lurking for a while, and this site has been very helpful (and entertaining).

[ModernTechnician]

After arguing with the .22magnum carry crowd, I find coming in here and witnessing your posts frankly good for the soul!

Just one thing though, my .45’s have seen enough use both in carry and range sessions - that they look NOTHING like your pretty nice shiny .45s!!!

I guess I must be doing something wrong…

I wonder if the moniker ‘shiny edges & thin blue’ is taken here?

Guess I must be of the poorer in this fraternity.

[Eightball]

that they look NOTHING like your pretty nice shiny .45s!!!Post pics of 'em. I for one love the "well worn, broken-in" look that guns get that get much use!

The Goverment confiscated it! I wasn't about to go without my 45ACPs, even if I couldn't have a 1911 in 45ACP; so I:

bought a pair of 45 Colt/ACP convertibles. Calibres over 38 are legal in Silouette and Single Action Shooting,

This is a LW Commander I built in 1975 on an AR Sales frame and an Essex slide. The barrel is a 5" Colt.
I have at least 12,000 rounds through it and the frame has a small crack. Koa grips carved by yours truly. Real nice carry gun.

Mmmm NICE Eclipse! Mine is at Kimber getting a new slide with an internal extractor. Cant wait to get it back. Wait until you see the grips I have for my Eclipse... it makes you think thoughts that arent THR...

Xing, I see you have mostly Chip McCormick or Wilson mags, which do you prefer?

Another pair of Baer's, one for play and the other for CCW. I've got to learn how to take better photos though.

hey rip, i like the wilson mag just because i plan on getting a custom cdp and i like the plastic follower over the metal ones. ive heard that it is better for aluminum frames? they all feel 100% no problems and lock the slide back when empty. the wilsons are easy to take apart and clean and they also self lubricate. hope that helps.
