If you're going to be shooting any games with it, definitely the 1911. There's always a division in which it will be competitive while the BHP seems to fall through the cracks and doesn't really shine in any action pistol discipline. I'd also look into a CZ 75. They're generally cheaper than...

The CZ Custom shop is up north in Mesa. Eric's a good smith and I'd send it there.

A single piece of evidence will never "solve" a crime. Crimes are solved when all the evidence is woven together to form a coherent and plausible beyond a reasonable doubt story.

I'd be surprised if any factory ammo is made for that caliber anymore. I think you'll have to form your own brass from .30-30 http://www.ammo-one.com/wc219ImprovedZipper.html http://www.reloadersnest.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5134 http://ed_mcgraw.tripod.com/id13.html

I've used custom leather ones and Blade Tech's, but my favorite are the Ready Tactical pouches: http://www.cpwsa.com/ready_tactical.htm

Nope, they're too wide.

Pausing and thinking is great! I try to cultivate friendships that make me do that on a regular basis. Imagine if we were all still living with the same views/opinions/values we held after graduating from high school. I don't have to justify carrying often. When I do, I admit that I don't feel...

Not much goes wrong on a CZ. The finish can be hit or miss, but the newer stuff (applied beginning in the late 90's) should hold up well. If you shoot it heavily (5k+/year), you'd be wise to order a spare slide stop and trigger return spring. Otherwise all it needs is ammo. I think that's a...

While this is outside the exercise, I'd rather have a satellite telephone and a swamp boat with 60gal of fuel than any firearm. I'd pack family, some food/water, and heirlooms on the boat and leave the rest to insurance/rebuilding. Then I'd call my nearest relatives and say, "Hey! I'm headed...

Favorite catalog: Natchez Shooters Supplies Favorite magazine: Front Sight (the USPSA publication) for shooting or Ducks Unlimited for general outdoors The articles is most other magazines I've read are just glorified advertisements.

CZ for ergonomics. The PCR, P-01, and P-06 are decockers only. To get a safety on that size gun you need to chose the CZ Compact which is steel framed. I'd suggest the thin aluminium grips by the custom shop too. Gives it the same width as a 1911 and it feels like single stack. In total size...

I don't know a single extractor design that was made to take that type of loading... could you share which ones you were thinking of?

That open gun in the bottom of the Treesome picture looks a little different than the World Shoot 2008 model:

If NICS can't disqualify you in three days you get it by default. There must be something else going on there Zoidberg.

Out of the box, the best I've had was a CZ TS. HK P7 was decent too. If you're willing to have it worked on there are lots of options.
