    Glock 43X

    A g43x has been my edc since they came out. I run shield mags, hackathorn sights, a vickers flat trigger and ghost 3.5 trigger bar. Great combo the vickers and ghost, smooth (polished the bar), 4.5 lb break measured. Great carry pistol. I have gone to pocket carry, am disabled and mostly...

    Clean your own guns?

    I like cleaning guns, I clean them sometimes even if I don’t need to. Maybe it’s from cleaning the crap out of an m16a1 constantly decades ago and it stuck with me. Then again I liked cleaning them as a kid.

    Considering a progressive press.

    I’ve owned 3 presses. The lee classic turret which I regretted. Then a Dillon 550 b and from there upgraded to the hornady lnl a.p. The hornady is more in line with the Dillon 650, not the 550. Really apples to oranges. One is manual advance and one is auto, the lnl and 650 is both auto. I...

    Looking for an American 1911.

    Pretty much said it all here, excepi I noticed a couple incorrect statements. The Spartan is NOT assembled in the US (neither are ria's), it's assembled in the philippines on the armscor medallion line ...they just use sti internals. In fact it looks like an armscor medallion. This is from...

    Glock's Homeland Security Program discount

    I know this is an old thread but thought I would add that you have to be a retired veteran because disabled only does not get you there.

    Rock Island V.S. Taurus

    I think the ria tactical is a lot of gun for the money.

    XDs or Glocks

    I like both, but have to go with xd as I don't like glock's grip angle near as well.

    New SA GI but I am P.O.ed

    Like has been stated elsewhere in the thread a springer with the serial number starting with nm was assembled in the us with brazilian parts, pretty much everything else was completely built and assembled in Brazil. There are some loadeds that are nm's and were assembled here but most there...

    has anyone used XS big dot sights?

    It depends on what the gun is for in my opinion. I have xs's on a 1911 and i think they are the best thing out there for a carry gun. You won't notice any accuracy differences in this situation, but much quicker acquisition. Fiber optics are fine for target shooting and I prefer sights other...

    Is Mahovsky's Metalife still in business?

    It's hard to get hold of him, but I will say it's worth the wait. Excellent work and at about the best prices out there.

    Maybe a Fusion 1911

    I gave you my opinion harrygunner. They were willing to fix the problem and you refused to give them the chance, I expect any gunmaker to get the chance to fix a problem gun and you did not give it to them. You get no sympathy from me until they do not fix it after given the chance. I have...

    Maybe a Fusion 1911

    You are the only person I have seen that has had a problem with fusion's work, and that that was built on a springfield to try and get a california legal if I remember right. It still should run, but I think any gunsmith should get at least one chance to fix a problem gun that may make it out...

    what are the pros and cons of the 10mm?

    The 10mm is the most versatile handgun caliber for handloading. You can load them up to hunting velocities and load them down to just over .40 if you want. I have Rhumatoid Arthritis and have gotten away from 10mm due to the snap, but if not for that I would still be reloading it. I still...

    Maybe a Fusion 1911

    I have a fusion bobtailed commander and it's a great, well built pistol. Fusion has a section here: http://1911auto.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=21

    I'm not sure, I called them and didn't even go though all of their website.

    Sigs

    I just got one of these in today. It's very sweet, it has beavertail, checkering on front strap, solid guide rod. The elites have these things, plus front cocking serrations and wood grips (as you state) the two things I did not like on the elite I had. The sig wood grips are too fat. I...

    CSI: Miami Gun errors

    I secretly hope horatio has went hooters up and is leaving the show, but I know that's not true and I don't think caruso would be dumb enough to leave another tv show on his own accord.

    CCW for *ahem* fat guys: which holster/position?

    I did not go through this whole thread, but I find abdomen carry with a clip in iwb. It lays accross my right leg when I sit down, but it's the best concealment I can get. Side or 4:00 carry is pushed out too much and to me is too obvious. So it's not a one size fits all, but that's just what...
