YouTube and 1911 newbies There are several YouTube videos on disassembly and maintenence of the 1911.... Some are good

Great discussion. The knowledge on this forum is outstanding. BTW I assume the * symbols are for the degree symbol °. You can type it in by holding the ALT key while you type in 248. :)

Sparks from steel on steel One note of caution about shooting steel targets with steel core ammo out in the brush in dry conditions. The forest fire in Yarnell, AZ was (supposedly) caused by target shooters in which 19 firefighters were lost. Anyone have any personal knowledge about this?

Thanks for all the responses Hey Guys, I appreciate all your input. I'm going to look at Frog Lube to start out. I noticed no one mentioned "Gun Butter" which is prominently advertised on the M1911 web site. As it was mentioned there is no "right" choice but many choices that will work in many...

Hey Guys a question from a 1911 newbie. What lube to use in the high temps and dusty desert for a 1911? Any particular parts/area of wear to concentrate on? Thanks BTW I did look on the M1911 Pistols forum that had a article on some areas to lube but w/o finding any particular brands.

The accuracy is great once I learned proper trigger control. The DA trigger squeeze smooth but heavy. SA is great and one of the reasons I bought it. You can carry it cocked and locked like a 1911 although I don't have the confidence to carry it that way and prefer to use DA for the first round...

I haven't had that problem with the mags. I have seen that video before and tried it but my mags seem to fit tighter than what was shown on the video. I do not have to slide them forward for the latch to engage both full or unloaded mags. I have shot ~ 700 rounds through it so far without any...

I was in my first USPSA match on saturday. I have only fired my FNX9 on the range prior to this and installing a new mag have generally had the slide open. I have never tried loading with the slide closed and one in the chamber. I was surprised at how much force it takes to install a full mag...

I guess that's why I asked the question, I like the features and have looked around but haven't seen any discussions on KA SR 15. I know I can get a LaRue cheaper with a 6-8 week lead time and a FN SCAR16 for ~$2400. That's why I'm puzzled at the price from the dealer and he has one of the only...

Addendum I forgot to add it's a SR 15 and has just about everything I'm looking for EXCEPT for the price. 7 Integrated Sling Swivel Mounts: 5 at Front, 2 on the Rear Integrated Rail Folding Front Sight Ambidextrous Safety / Selector Integrated "Picatinny Rail" Mid-Length URX Forend...

Hey Guys, What's the general opinion on the KA AR-15? I am looking at one that is a flattop with flip up sights ready for optics and the dealer is asking $2100. What's so special besides the match grade trigger? Know any online places that sell them? Thanks
