    Colt model 70 series vs. new xse 1911

    There is an additional firing pin block safety in series 80 pistols. That is the only mechanical differnce as far as I know. I have an XSE and it is a very nice 1911. It is my understanding that Colt "custom" fits the slide with the frame for tight tolerances for the XSE series. Nothing rattles...

    S&w 3904

    As the numbered designation goes they are da/sa. If it were dao its model number would probably be 3944. 39 = single stack 9mm 4= dao 4= alloy frame I have two single stack S&W 9mms: 39-2 and 908. I would imagine that this model is just as enjoyable as the two I have. I say go for it if you...

    something like a 1911?

    S&W TDAs are fairly simple to field strip. The 45s are single column and fit well in my hands (I prefer them a bit more than my Colts). I suggest the 4566- they can be had relatively inexpensive and are similar size of a commander. This the exact model I have- not my gun but is the same

    3913 Owners

    I have the 908- the "value" version of the 3913. I am very impressed with thus far. I would recommend the Hogue rubber grips. It also accepts the many model 39 mags I have as well, but with some over hang of course. I also replaced the plastic guide rod with a steel one from a 3913. I am...

    Most Popular 1911 Part 1.....

    Colt. A good but, inexpensive 1911 in my opinion is a Springer GI.

    S&W Auto Model # help

    As mentioned the 457. It is a nice gun. The only analogous equivalent to the 908 and 457 that comes to my mind is the 4013. I am not sure if it uses a single stack mag.

    Best 45 sub compact

    I too really like my 3" Colt (sad I can't get a New Agent :(). The S&W 457 might also be worth a try- I like those as well.

    What is the BEST polymer-framed handgun line (in your opinion)?

    I have owned a Glock and an XD. They are long gone, but I still hold dear the Steyr M40- great gun imo :D I still prefer S&W TDAs and 1911s over polymers.

    What 1911's do you own?

    I have two Colts. An XSE and an officer's 1991a1. I use both regularly, but the S&W 4566 gets %50 of rounds I bring.

    The Game Design Industry and Firearms

    1- A mixed bag of realism and fiction. Some games are better than others. 2- If the artist making the weapon is knowledgeable and interested in firearms, then it will most likely be spot on depiction. There is the possibility of the artist being told to do such and such to make it "kool"...

    Mossberg M590's: Tell me about yours.

    This 590 was my first shotgun and I have really treated it poorly. But, it still works fine like the day I bought it. It had a Houge stock but it got crushed and snapped after something large fell on it... replaced it with some old 500 wood furniture that appear to be from two different guns...

    2007 or newer Smith & Wesson 908

    I recently purchased a 908. I really enjoyed shooting it at the range... over 300 rounds to break it in. Not a single complaint from me. I just ordered a 3913 steel guide rod to drop in the 908. It fits and functions as far as not firing live ammunition. The guide rods themselves are very close...
