Just got my hands on a Colt LE6940. Sorry, the lighting is a little weird:

Kimber Warrior or Kimber Desert Warrior. Or the Kimber TLE/RL. If you get a .45 you need to get a 1911! Just remember there is a difference between .45 ACP and .45 GAP. Stick with the ACP. Want a polymer? Glock 21 (full size) like others have suggested, or an HK USP45, or a Springfield XDM45.

I like shooting the 92fs, the only issue I have is the trigger pull seems a bit long in DA. But it's a smooth shooting pistol and fun to just shoot. It would be difficult to conceal since it is a large honkin' gun! But very fun to shoot!

Subcompact Springfield XD9, you can either use a standard mag and have a smaller print or use the extended mag for a better grip.

You got a Stainless Ultra Raptor? Because I LOOOOOVE mine!

Awesome, I have been looking for a "bath soak" method, or whatever you call it. Will need to explore these options! Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk

I'm with you on that one. Needs to be renamed uncomon sense! Going to a gun show tomorrow, will pick up a Mosin-Nagant if I see one in good condition for under $130...

I have no personal experience with any of those guns... but by what I've seen/read, P95 is your best bang for buck. At least it sounds like it in your case.

Just 1? This is a hard question! I would have to say my Glock 23, mainly because it's easier to field strip (no tools compared to my 1911s), light, and eats anything I feed it. I also have a Streamlight TLR-1s mounted and neither of my 1911s have a tactical rail. But if this were a "you can...

Is there any reason in particular you want a high capacity 1911? My only gripe would be I need to reload mags more often but I'll cure that with buying more mags. :D If you say it's for self defense, I would hope you're never in a situation (or anyone else for that matter) that requires you to...

Do you have a price range on your gun? How about a Glock 19 for carry (since it's a compact G17) and a shotgun for home defense? I have a Remington 870 Marine Magnum with Surfire pumpgrip light. Sigs are nice too, but if you like the Glock get the Glock. This week Gander Mountain has a...

I have the exact same set up and noticed something the other day. I had the mag loaded and in the G23. Did not have a round in the chamber. I have a TLR-1s. I have difficulty racking the slide back to load one in the chamber. I mean it doesn't want to rack. I release the mag and presto, slide...

to me: .45 ACP = 1911 But if you want more rounds, I hear the HK USP45 is a popular choice. I don't know what your budget is, but every 1911 fan I know has or wants an HK USP45.

Thanks RC and Float! Y'all have given me a great place to start researching! I'm glad I won't be put on hold to figure out more from Winchester again! lol I will need to look up some videos on a full takedown so I can inspect and clean it anyway. If this 1890 was truly made in 1897 but was...

I tried posting this on another forum but no one had any answers for me so I figured I'd try here. My uncle recently bestowed upon me a Winchester Model 1890 in .22LR. So far I have determined it is a standard (not deluxe), case hardened (not blued), 2nd model (adjustable rear sights and...
