    Para-Ordnance 1911's

    I love my pre PXT Tac-Four (P13 w/ LDA). It's yet to have a single failure in 800+ rounds I've put through it. To bad its heavy as a boat anchor...

    I paid $760 a month ago for a 4" 686+. I think it was a little steep, but I like to support the local shop.

    My Trip To Wal Mart Today.

    My local Wallyworld has been depleted of ammo stocks for months. The only pistol calibers they've had was .40 and .25ACP. Rifle rounds are equally light... .30 carbine and some other oddball rounds. Other places like Bass Pro Shop only had oddball pistol ammo... .454Casull and .500 S&W...

    Any place to shoot in SW Fla ?

    Probably nothing outdoors on the Cape. Surely something outdoors in Lee County... otherwise there is the outdoor range at Port of the Isles south of Naples on US41.

    Bad CCW experiences?

    I was caught once a few weeks after I started carrying. I was at a birthday party for a friends child. One of my wifes girlfriend gave me a hug and immediatly felt the grip of my XD45c. She asked what it was, but I was able to gracefully avoid the question without saying anything. She...

    Son's Para USA GI Expert & Range Report

    The slide is always going to be tough to release with an empty mag in place. The magazine follower pushes the slide stop up and causes the slide to remain open on an empty mag. Its designed that way.

    What was your first gun.

    First I purchased was a Glock 17 about 10 years ago (1999). I sold it after six months since I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with the darn thing. Picked up a 1911 and never looked back...

    is there a fun to shoot compact?

    Perhaps a Springfield XD. The compacts use a grip extension to provide a full grip, but also use a smaller magazine for better concealability. HTH.

    Never Fired?

    I have one... A Remington 870 Marine Magnum. I bought it new about 8 years ago. Guess I've always had something more fun to shoot when heading out (rifles or pistols).

    Best 1911-45 caliber for Home Defense?

    I've got a Para Tac-Four (P13 LDA) thats stock (other than Wolf mag springs). Its been more reliable than my Springfield Champion, Micro, or even my XD. After reading on the net, their quality seems to be a little hit or miss... But the same could be said for other lg mfgs including the likes...

    What the heck is going on with the FL Dept of Licensing?

    It used to take up to 90 days. I have heard online that its a little longer now due to the increased number of applications.

    a question foy you Taurus owners...

    My first and only Tuarus was an 44mag revolver (M44?). It had a long ribbed barrel with ports and the dealer had mounted a scope on it. Pretty accurate from the limited amount of shooting I did with it. I recently sold it as I hadn't shot it in forever and wasn't planning on doing any hog...

    Fl CCW?

    I got mine two months ago... it took close to the full 90 days. On the electronic fingerprints... I couldn't find anybody down here that would do them. The instructor told us who to call, but they all said their machines were broken.
