I currently carry Winchester 230gr. JHP for my personal defense round in my Springfield GI. I was wondering if the 230gr. Hardball (WWB) is suitable as an everyday CCW round also. Probably the only reason why I'm not carrying it now is because I'm concerned about overpenetration. So my...

I'm trying to find any laws requiring notification of law enforcement if a gun owner is leaving a gun at home when travelling on vacation. I'm pretty sure there is also a law that requires a gun owner to report the theft of a firearm within a few days. I'm only interested in Arizona and...

I'm starting to think about the next 1911 that I'd like to buy. It needs to be a GI style 1911, no frills, basic setup. I'd like either Colt, maybe Kimber, or something else IF it's a reliable yet basic GI gun. Of course the #1 thing is it has to be reliable and #2 it has to be reasonably...

I'm looking for a decent 1911 5" IWB Holster to buy ASAP. I'm looking for something like the Milt Sparks VersamaxII, Galco NSAII or something similar. I have my CCW license coming in soon and I'd like to start carrying right away. I understand there's usually a several week wait for a good...

Has anyone put a Metalform rounded follower in a Chip McCormick 10rd 1911 magazine? If so, does it improve the magazine's feed reliability? I ran into a deputy a week ago and he did this same thing for his mags so I bought a rounded follower (they're frickin expensive) to put in mine. I'd...

I'm curious why so many people overlook the Springfield GI 45 pistol because it has the lo-profile military sights and instead choose its more sophisticated counterpart with the larger, hi-profile sights. I'd think in a carry pistol it shouldn't really matter, and might even be better to have...

Anyone use the Blackhawk CQC IWB holster for the 5" 1911? How do you like it? I just ordered one over the net. I've seen other versions of this holster, looks pretty good. -Benjamin

Okay guys, after reading all the Glock vs. XD threads I've decided to give the XD9 a try...but now I'm trying to decide on the 3" SubCompact version or the 4" Service model. How accurate is the 3" vs. the 4"? Is there much of a difference? Also, is it possible, and are there any holsters...

I took my piece to the range yesterday and put about 220 rounds thru it. I had 4 jams: 1 FTRTB, 2 Stovepipes, and 1 funky one where the slide locked and a live round was sitting (loose) on top of the magazine. I figure that last problem was the magazine, it's a Chip McKormick 10 rounder. I...

I have a new Springfield GI.45 1911 that is experiencing some Return to Battery failures. The slide usually stops about 1/2" from home and this occures about 1 out of 30. Just FYI I've put about 350 rounds through the gun since new. I can get it to feed with no problems when I'm at home, but...
