Why not get a sig 1911 and have the best of both worlds? Seriously though, they're both magnificent guns.

I agree with you sir, if it isn't broken, no need in fixing it. If you reload try experimenting some with your loads to improve your accuracy. That also gives you an excuse to shoot. All my 1911's shoot very tight groups with 230 grain cast SWC and 5.5 grains of 231.

Strykervet, You make a valid point, if zombie shooting gets people involved in shooting in a way that casts a positive light on the sport, then I say go for it. I doubt I'll ever participate in it myself, just not my cup of tea, but to each their own.

PLEASE don't have a heavy barrel put on a pre '64 model 70. That is an amazing firearm that will serve you well just how it is.

This is the first real mention of seen of it, though I've seen it alluded to in other places on this forum. I'm a young guy (27), but I've been shooting since around age 5, and zombie shoots don't hold a lot of allure for me. I shoot with guys mostly old enough to be my father, so no wonder I...

Hello all, My name is Jake Scott. I'm 27 years old, and I hail from western North Carolina. Ive been what seems to be called a lurker on the site for a few months now. I dont post a whole lot, but I enjoy reading what like minded people have to say. My interests lay mostly in large frame...

You also see a lot of Colt, Kimber, Glock, S&W etc. out there for sale used. Does this mean there is something wrong with them...not at all. One other poster hit it on the head I think when he said the greener pastures thing. Us gun people are collectors by nature, and seeing how most of us...

You can't go wrong with El Paso or Simply Rugged. I'm waiting on my celtic carved 'cuda from Simply Rugged right now with much anticipation.

I don't know if any other posters have tried to break a car window, but you damn sure don't do unless you mean to. If the assailant was pounding on my window that hard I would have presented, if he failed to stop I would have shot before getting bitten.

I have always hunted with my winchester model 70 featherweight in .270. My father gave my twin brother and I both one when we graduated from high school. Aside from the fact that always performs flawlessly, it has great sentimental value to me. Those featherweights are real handy in the woods.

Wow, the diversity of opinion is truly something to appreciate. This thread is certainly proof of that. While I can respect any opinion arrived at through experience and logic, its the one's claiming a particular brand or make is "worthless" or "junk" without providing proper evidence to...

They are top quality, one of about three that I use regularly. You can't go wrong.

Good, interesting, and thorough review. However, it will never see the inside of my safe. I respect the innovation, but traditional wheelguns have saved far to many lives to be replaced willy nilly by something so new and unproven. On another note, I believe it is cavalier bordering on...

I just got my sig 1911 rtss in earlier this week. It's a VERY tightly conctructed pistol. I haven't shot it a whole lot yet, but it has cycled 230 grain SWC and RN with no problems. One method I use is hand cycling, to check my handloads. I find that most of the time (not always, but 99%) if...

I've spent a good deal of time in the bush on the west side of Kodiak Island. In my experience, a shotgun has absolutely no place in the Alaskan bush. If I were stranded, I would want a large bore wheel gun, .44 caliber at a minimum, for the sole purpose of bear protection. For food gathering...

I bought one of the first scout rifles that ruger put out several years ago, before the recent improvements. On the subject of the forward mount, long eye relief scope, I found it good for fast target aquisition, but not much else. I also don't think its a lot faster to get on target than a...

I'd buy back my pin barreled S&W 29 I sold when I was broke in college.
