    1911s suck (not my article)

    I owned a Kimber Series 1 once. It was sold. Have shot other 1911's over the years. There is nothing about the 1911 like. The Marines could have done better. No, I have never served with an elite unit. Spent a lot of time with 2nd Tank Bn however. I hated the issue M9 as well.

    .38spl short barrel SD load

    Just wandering what the consensus was on this. The revolver's are a Smith and Wesson 642 and a Ruger SP101 with a 2.25" barrel. My uncle is a retired policeman and suggested the old FBI load. .38spl 158 +p semi wadcutter I can get 500 rounds of these pretty cheap. I was wondering if anyone...

    Beretta Handguns

    I love Beretta's. I own a 92FS, 92FS Inox, PX4 9mm Full size, and subcompact. All have been reliable and fun to shoot. I do want to add a 92 Compact to the collection

    Kahr CM/PM 9 vs...

    I carry a CM9 in a Recluse pocket holster when wearing cargo shorts or pants. When wearing jeans, I sometimes carry the CM9 in a Silent Thunder IWB. However, if carrying IWB I much prefer my Kahr K9 in a Silent Thunder.

    Im sticking with my S&W 642, so I wont be needing that Kahr cm9

    Then you have the thousands of Kahr owners with no problems in hundreds and hundreds of rounds. I own a K9 Black, K9 Stainless, CW9, PM9, and a CM9. Yes, I love the Kahr 9mm's All have been 100% reliable with JHP, and FMJ. The internet is a weird place. On it, the late 3rd Gen and 4th...

    Best Subcompact Choice 9mm for about 500

    I had a G26 and sold it. Never could get myself to like Glocks. Plus it did not like HST's. I have a XD 9mm subcompact. Now, I do like this pistol. I carry a Kahr K9 and a CM 9. For your price point, I would suggest the CM9. Mine has been 100% reliable with all manner of FMJ and JHP. Easily...

    Kimber CDP II (Custom and Ultra)

    I have a plain Custom II, and a Compact CDP II. Both have been 100% reliable since day one. I have no complaints. I would suggest as others have, getting some Wilson or Tripp magazines.

    Best .40 for carry?

    I have a P2000 .40 V2, USP .40C, P30S, and a P2000sk .40 V2. My EDC is the HK P2000sk. I would suggest the P2000sk. Soft shooting, accurate, great ergonomics, and 100% reliable.

    Need 1911 opinions

    I agree with the above post. Bang for buck is a wash at around $1,000. I have a 5" Wilson CQB, that is no more accurate or reliable than my Baer TRS. At the same time neither Wilson nor the Baer, is any more accurate or reliable than a plain Kimber Custom II I own.

    High End Pistol for Concealed Carry

    What is expensive to one person, will be cheap to another. Just a fact. I prefer 1911's. All mine have been flawless. Unlike the Glock and HK, I once owned. I own "several" 1911's. But for CCW, I prefer a Kimber Ultra Carry II with night sights and Crimson Trace grips.

    Am I too anal?

    All pistols fired are cleaned after every range trip. Carry pistols are cleaned once, sometimes twice a week.

    1911 ccw quandry.

    I EDC a Kimber Ultra Carry II. It has been 100% reliable with FMJ and JHP. It carries easy, is light as feather, and at 20 yards is as accurate as the 5" models. I have several Government 1911's, but prefer the carry the Ultra. That said.... I say keep what you got, and save up for your...

    Any Thoughts on Kimber 1911s

    I have a Ultra Carry II LG, a TLE II Stainless, and a Royal II. My EDC is the Ultra Carry II w/night sights and Crimson Trace. All three of my Kimbers have been 100% reliable with different makes of FMJ and JHP. I have had NO issues with any of them. I could not be happier with my Kimbers...

    History Channel's "Top Shot" on Sunday night

    I personally like the show, and would like to see more such shooting shows. Shows such as this, may/will draw more people to experience firearms. That is a good thing.

    . 38Spl Semi-wadcutter or Hollowpoints

    Thanks for the help. Ammo of the two suggested loads are one the way. Which ever one she prefers is the one she will carry. I'm out of it. It is up to her. The reason I initially pushed JHP's, is that I was raised on pistols. HK's, Glocks, Sig's, Colt(Government, Commander), Wilson, etc. I...

    . 38Spl Semi-wadcutter or Hollowpoints

    One last question. She has been using Winchester 158gr lead SWC(X38WCPSV) and Remington's version at the range. Are these good for self defense, or should we look elsewhere? I(we) are open to suggestions. I can buy a box of several different kinds, and let her choose the one she prefers.
