Not a 1911, but this one otherwise fits your bill …. Sig 10mm P220 Legion. SAO (so C&L-ed, like a 1911), with a rail and optic-ready cuts: https://www.ammoland.com/2023/09/sig-p220-legion-10mm-handgun-review/#axzz8aWNFzrBm I have the earlier DA/SA P220 Match Elite model with Sig-Lite night...

Carrying your roscoe AIWB is often called “junk-point carry” …. for a reason. 🤔 😳

Yep, for sure. It’s always been stoopid advice to tell someone to carry the “hot stuff” in case of real danger (whether 4-legged or 2-legged threats) but practice with the “cheap, diluted stuff.” You should be practicing shooting drills (and against a timer) with the SAME energy-level of...

Let resident Alaskan and veteran bear guide, Chuke, help you out …. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa0A4JRMLMY

Saw that one. Solid, credible testing by a native Alaskan who’s actually out and about in that place called “bear country.” “10mm wins.” ‘Nuff said.

🙄 The 10mm’s proven itself plenty adequate for bears - black, brown, or Polar. Otherwise the Danes would be arming their Sirius troops with .454 Casull wheelguns or such. You just repeat the same Wall of Words while refusing to acknowledge the cases and reports cited. By the way, Razor Dobbs...

It would, and has, as multiple case reports have shown. Ignore the revolver Fudds. Alaskans who, as a general population group, probably encounter more bears than any other U.S. residents, have literally moved in mass to carrying some type of semi-auto chambered in 10mm, typically loaded with...

Just a sampling of what’s out there, but the most awesome 10mm AUTO has complied an impressive track record for putting down aggressive, charging bears - black, brown, or Grizz. See links below. Again, just the tip of the iceberg. Not to mention, the particular platform of the 10mm Glock 20...

I always check the “pre-owned” shelf for older S&W wheelies too. But it’s a hard pass if any sport the dreaded Hillary Hole. That monstrosity kills it for me every time regardless of price. 🙄

Ah meh, blah. … At day’s end it’s still a janky Taurus. 🙄 Hold out for the occasional S&W “police trade-in,” whether foreign or domestic, if you want something that retains any quality.

Good to hear that Beretta’s DA/SA trigger units have finally caught to the smoothness of S&W 3rd Gen DA/SA triggers. :thumbup:

The rule of thumb for ’operator’ types is to have a minimum of six (6) factory magazines per pistol. Three are dedicated practice mags. The other three are dedicated carry mags, … and as always mo’ mags for either purpose being better.

Series 70 Colts are best series. ;)

Sounds like instead of selling off his guns, OP should strongly consider moving to a Free State. From all the So. Dakota commercials I’m seeing (staring their Gov. Kristy Noem), it would seem that S.D. would be a great state to relocate to, buy rural property, and then build your own personal...

Well, it’s definitely not a ‘Pony.’

No dented cases at all from my S&W 645. Just bug holes.

Well, some didn't straight from the factory - if an L.E. Dept or agency made that specific request (e.g., FBI and KSP 10mm model 1076s). Similarly with the slide-mounted decocking lever. On some L.E. guns, like my ex-L.E. 4566, the lever is decock-only. Once you thumb-down the hammer, the...

Very nice! …. The “-1” 4506s had the beefier frame of the 10XX-series guns.

Liberal ‘revisionist’ historians dispute the authenticity and/or accuracy of several of those quotes. … Just FYI.

I have a pack of really nice-shooting 1911s and all are reliable but I have to agree with this. My S&W 4506, 4566, and 2nd Gen 645 are my favorite .45acps. The 4566 is in the carry rotation, and the 645 is my primary range gun for running drills and testing handloads. Not one issue with any of...
