    My next revolver. (Warning. SA content)

    SA bug bit me recently and I cured it with this Lipsey's Ruger. It shoots 45LC and a cylinder for 45 ACP. Shoots like a dream, and the ACP rounds are a little cheaper to shoot more often. Great gun.

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    1968 Colt 1911. The blueing on this gun just can't be duplicated these days. Can't wait to shoot this baby!

    More handguns or long guns?

    Wow. Just about 50/50 at this point. Makes me wonder if most have a balance of the two or if the camps are divided? I guess my ratio is about 3:1 handguns over long. May have to do with the fact I'm not a big hunter, and I carry in a large metro area. Love to shoot too and handgun ammo is...

    More handguns or long guns?

    No way will I ask how many of each, as I won't tell either. ;) Just wondering in folks collections, which takes priority numbers wise. For me, it's handguns, always been a pistolero.:D

    Is it wrong to buy a commemorative model gun...

    Glad to see others agree! The price was as good or better than a new Colt, and I can't help but think that in '68 the production was as good or better than it is now. It's not the first time, as I have a Ruger MK II NRA edition I've shot the snot out of.

    Is it wrong to buy a commemorative model gun...

    And plan to shoot it?? I saw a mint 1968 model Colt 1911 WWI commemorative and couldn't help myself! It didn't have the box and the gun is beautiful, typical Colt blueing. I have every plan to shoot this gun, wouldn't have it any other way. As a side note, '68 has got to be a good year for a...

    KAHR Reliability?

    Normally I don't chime in to bash in any forum, however my CW45 had trigger reset issues right out of the box. Talk about a confidence killer. It went back to Kahr, and the trigger bar was replaced. I have yet to go shoot it as I have plenty of other carry options. This was my first Kahr...

    .556 ammo with Bushmaster?

    You're good to shoot 5.56 in the Bushy. Their recommendation not to use 5.56 in a gun specifically chambered for .223 does not apply to their firearms. They are basically saying just because our(Bushmaster) guns can use both, it's not a universal concept with all .233 rifles. Hope this helps.

    At least no one got killed. :rolleyes:

    Seems to me this could actually trigger a caliber war!! The 40 is obviously underpowered. If that was a 45, there would have been two very unfortunate deaths!:rolleyes:

    What do you think of keltec?

    I went with the reliable enough but not first choice option. I have a P-11 that I have ran 350 rnds of Win white mix of fmj and jhp. I expected some malfunc's early on during break-in, however after good cleaning and lubing after every range visit, the gun still hangs up every few mags on a...
