    Considering First 1911....

    I feel that the Colt 1991A1 is probably the best quality base 1911 patern pistol available now. Colt had its problems up until a few years ago, but has really rebounded and is producing high quality reliable pistols now. The Kimbers have gone down hill, have a lot of issues with internal...

    what are your all-time favorite tactical-looking pistols?

    A no nonesense 1911 by Larry Vickers, Vic Tibbets, Hilton Yam, Ted Yost, and several other really good pistolsmiths. These folks make guns to run, and do it right. Understated function to perfection. Practical tactical.

    Modern sporting firearms: Quality issues

    I have purchased two Winchester Model 70 new production rifles recently. One stainless/synthetic in 7mm WSM, and one polished blue/wood laminate in 270 WSM. Neither gun was very good out of the box. Maybe 2 moa with several new factory types of ammo, and several reloads. The stainless one...

    Desert Eagle 50 AE

    I've never fired a .50, but I had a .44 mag with a 10" barrel which was completely reliable and very accurate. I real hoot to shoot. Put a Bushnell Holosight on it and it looked like something out of Robo Cop. Wish that I hadn't sold it.

    Les Baer vs. Wilson Combat vs…

    I have several Wilsons including protectors and a CQB. All of my Wilsons have been just great from the get go. The only problem that I did have with a protector involved a slight cosmetic issue which Wilson corrected in less than a week and paid shipping both ways. My only experience with a...

    1911or high power?

    I have both hi powers and 1911 type pistols. I far prefer the 1911. They just feel much better in my hand, are more accurate for me, and are better looking to me. Nothing wrong with the hi power, but since you already have several 9mm, why not look at a new Colt 1991A1. Very well made...
