    Letting them divide us and selling each other out

    One of several variations: "First they came for the socialists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't...

    vaquero or Blackhawk?

    I suppose you've seen the Bisley Vaquero? I'm partial to .45 - don't think there were any .357s back in the original Bisley days.

    vaquero or Blackhawk?

    Does the currently available Ruger Bisley Vaquero (.45 Colt) have the New Vaquero frame or the original frame; can it safely shoot the heavy "Ruger only" loads from Buffalo Bore, Double Tap, etc., or is it restricted from those high powered loads as is the New Vaquero?

    Sticky Magazine - New Colt Commander

    Thanks rc, I'll try that. I have whacked them pretty good with no success but I'll add some lube and try again. The gun arrived with one mag in it and the other in the box so whoever at Colt put it together must not have noticed, cared, whatever. Outside of this minor issue... it's a really...

    Sticky Magazine - New Colt Commander

    I have a NIB Colt Commander (04691). Have not shot it, field stripped it or lubed it yet. It came with 2 Colt 7 rd magazines, neither of which will fully insert. They slide in about 2/3 of the way then stop. Partially depressing the mag release allows the magazine to be easily inserted the rest...

    Anyone Else LIke 1911 With Short Trigger?

    I have a SA Mil-Spec with a short trigger and a Colt Commander with long trigger. I much prefer the long trigger as I have long fingers and that puts the pad of my index finger where it needs to be. Seems to me "short vs long" trigger depends on the anatomy of your hand.

    My first 1911

    Hi Bad k, You could call Springfield and ask about darker grips. Also check out the grips on the Kimber website. Another popular source is Esmeralda -google Esmeralda's Grips. FWIW, I have a parked SA Mil-Spec with plain vanilla grips. They were reddish so I used Citrus strip on them then...
