    Need good range bag

    One of the best values in range bags is the Midway bag both in the compact and large sizes. This is a well-designed bag for shooters and is functionally MUCH better than tool bags and other non-range specific bags. The large bag is usually on sale for $39, the compact bag for less. HTH, John

    1911s: Anyone not like a beavertail safety?

    Do not use or like beavertail grip safeties. All of my Colt 1911's have customized and use a factory grip safety recontoured for a commander hammer with all sharp edges eliminated. The narrow factory grip safety allows my hand to get up and around it for a higher grip. John

    1911 Condition One Holster Question.
