I agree I agree that the 1911 trigger pull is lighter than a regular .45, I have an XD45 and the triger pull on that one is slightly heavier. However, I think that a lighter trigger pull on my 1911 would facilitate what I want to do easier. I am going towards the multiple shots with one...

Pics My gun with mags. The two mags that look the same were bought for $7.00 each brand new from keepshooting.com

RIA rocks I bought a RIA 1911(I will pick it up on the 6th) for $500. However, I just met someone at work that has the same one and he loves it. For being a non expensive gun, he says he likes it better than his other guns.

true That is true. I will be better of buying ammo than making it. Thanks J.....

HE=high explosives I meant HE=high explosives not HE as in heavy equipment. Funny, because I deal with both in the Marines. Thanks J...

Interesting It is interesting, it would be nice to make some rounds with HE.(If its possible) My wife would probably kill me if I turned the garage into an armory and a ammo factory. All joking aside. How much does it cost to make ammo? Thanks J...

whats that? What is a realoding rig? Thanks J...

I have a GOVT 1911 This is NOT my gun, it is only a pic from the web The 1911 I purchased does have a 5" barrell and it looks just like the pic above. It must be a govt. Thanks J.... RobertFBurnett I am in Camp Pendleton

question about rock island HI I would like to know what kind of Rock Island 1911 I have. Do I have a 1911 Commander, Government, or officer? The receipt has: Rock Island Armory 1911 45ACP SN- RIA107#### How can I find out which one I have? Are all 1911 mags compatiple? I...

jams I was reading some reviews on hi-cap and 7+ mags, that they jam ALOT. Specially, a drum style mag that held 25 rounds. I will defenitely need some more mags due to the fact that my 1911 will only come with 1 mag. Thanks J...

looking for mags Hi I bought a Rock Island 1911 and I have not picked it up yet(CA 10-day wait....sucks) and it only comes with 1 mag. Where can I find some mags for the Rock Island 45acp? I would also like to find some mags that hold 10 rounds for that same gun. Thanks J...

wal mart ammo Hi I bought 100 rounds of winchester .45acp for $28.99. I found that to be a good deal. However, I was told that online buying is cheaper if large quanities are bought. Thanks J...

thanx THR, Thank you all for your support and the tips. I will most defenitely take them seriously. I will defenitely shoot my gun when day 10 comes and I pick up my gun. Where can I buy .45ACP ammo cheap? Not cheap ammo, but ammo at a less expensive cost. Thanks J...

thanx yup, Thanks. I will defenitely shoot the hek outof my 1911, then I will decide what mods to do to better fit me. I will defenitely shoot with other 1911 owners. That way I can shoot theirs as well.
