    Smallest .45

    I had both the defender and the Springfield Microcompact loaded for a short time. The basic pistols are clones of each other,with the Springfield being better outfitted with night sights and a light rail. In the end I kept the Defender because I felt it was a better concealed piece than the...

    Opinions on Para 1911's?

    I have a Para 14-45 LTD in all stainless. It is a replacement for my Springfield Hi Cap that had a cracked frame. Springfield replaced that pistol with my choice of any 1911 they had in stock of about the same value of the hi cap. Very nice service from springfield. I ended up taking a loaded...

The extractor (MIM) was junk and the Wilson Combat bulletproof replacemant part was $29. I did the install myself,not exactly a drop in but pretty basic.Now I have a Defender that is...

    "Dickering" on gun prices with sellers.

    The principal that applies is that anything I have for sale is undesirable and worth only a low ball take it or leave it from most "dealers". The funny thing is that those same dealers sell only rare and unfired examples in pristine condition. Funny how things work...I'd think it was a profit...

    Entry 1911

    +1 on the RIA tactical. You will have a great shooting entry level 1911.The funny thing that everyone seems to forget is the original 1911's were designed to be reasonably priced military manstoppers with few frills.I'm of the opinion that the RIA is probably the best value 1911 made right...

    Jeff Cooper on Point Shooting

    Perfect reason to use a laser sight as a training tool for point shooting. Your brain seems to learn to tie the POI to the hand position over a short time of use. After that point shooting (with or without the laser) becomes much more natural and accurate, at least it worked that way for me! Chuck.

    Anyone used wax for corrosion protection on handguns?

    Johnsons works great, especially if you lightly heat up the metal before applying.

    Followed & Fired at.

    You might want to consider keeping some additional firepower at hand. Pistol vs shotty isn't a good match. Shotty vs AK is better.

    S&W Model 22A - A Good Buy?

    Buy it!! I love mine. Put a cheap red dot on it and have some fun.Easy to take apart and clean too.Just get a few extra recoil buffers (about $1.00 each) and replace them as they get beat up (every 2000 rds or so).

    Durability of Philippine-made 1911's

    Check out the 1911.org site. They have a RIA representitive on the forum and get rave reviews. I like mine.The big plus for the RIA is that they are built using modern CNC machines.Makes for a great buy.I think the "some" that maintain the metallurgy is sub par are not qualified to make that...

    Generator/Inverter question

    http://www.cpeauto.com/C46540.php I bought one of these at Murray Auto for $399 ($299 after $100 rebate). It is quiet, powerful and as good a deal as you will ever find on a generator. Yes I know what I'm talking about as I have been a RV'er for 30 years and have seen everything out there over...
