I am looking at a Springfield Armory G.I. champion 1911 for my son to use, and I was wondering if the front sight can be removed (to put better sights on it).
I don't own a 1911 yet, so go easy on me!

I've had that happen in a 30-30 when a re-load was not seated deep enough, making the round a little too long. It was more that I didn't want to force it into the grooves, and there was an obvious resistance.

Thanks for the great input so far, folks. I'm leaning towards the 45-70 simply because it is SO MUCH more common than the .444 or .450. I was worried that the "energy" left something to be desired when compared to the other two, but as one of you wrote, that stat might be over-rated, AND you...
First, I'm NOT planning on hunting ANY kind of bear. This is a deer hunting rifle that I want to be able to handle a worst encounter of the largest nightmare kind.
