Glock vs. 1911 1000 Round Match in OK 10/20/2007

[Double Naught Spy]

Noxx, NO DQs unless excessive malfs, a gun breaks or is deemed unsafe to shoot. Otherwise, we document everything for 1000 rounds.

PM me.

stick to what other people tell you

"other people" = 3 professional gunsmiths with a combined 42 years of experience and a gunstore owner who`s been in business for thirty years. So yeah, I will.

Even your own story, 60,000 rounds through a mossy 500 shotgun. I would not say it can’t happen, I am just a bit skeptical.

hahaha You would know. I don`t know how much other people shoot and I don`t claim to know or care. I probably average 250 shells a week with the old booger, sorry if yours failed ya, and 200 combined rounds per week through handguns, it`s what I do. I`m not a gunsmith nor am I an expert on a Mossberg or any other gun but I am a shooter. I`ve got 6 chokes for the Mossberg and it`s the only shotgun that I own. You`ve got a lot of nerve in calling me a liar. Frankly, I don`t care what you think but I do think that very,very few people keep a count over several years of each round that passes through the barrel of their guns. I`ve never kept count but A good guess of 60 thousand rounds would be very close to the amount that`s been through my old Mossberg and there will be thousands more until it turns to rust. So you keep counting and I`ll keep shooting. I have a spotter that I`ve used for about 10 years but I guess I`ll have to hire a counter now, you want the job?

Wow, this is a strange type match. I`ve got Mossy that`s got probably at least 50 k through it. I can`t see why this is so unbelievable. I`m new to this sight and this is my first post so Hi, to all.

I know a poster here that does keep an exact round count of every round that goes down the pipe of his pistol. When he states he has shot X number of rounds, he has.

In my experience, when people estimate how many rounds they have shot, they usually guess high. Sometimes way high.

As far as taking the advice of a gunsmith or other "professional" in the business, I look at them like car salesmen--I've never met one that wasn't at least a little full of ****. It is really funny that they recommend something they are selling to solve your problem. Gander Mountain?? Enough said.

This match is put on just for the internet commandos and their super tacticool hardware that never fails. Put up or shut up. If you are not willing to shoot then why comment?

Maybe [email protected] should shoot the match with his Mossberg? It seems to be the most reliable firearm on the net.

 

[Beyond_Perfection]

I would really like to shoot this with my 1911Sc

But I would beg to shoot it with my M&P .40

Here is another guy with a mossy 500a pumper and I have had since my 18th b-day , it has seen all kinds of ammo, killed 100s of ducks I couldnt sit here a even try to give you a round count but it a $%!! load. I can remeber going out with the guys and cases of ammo and logging some trees via the mossberg chain saw. I have no problem with your round count and estimate mine is 30k ++++. But it just a guess as far as how my shoulder may look I work hard and this stuff doesnt bother me if shooting a shotgun bothers you shoulder try the gym once in awhile it may help with a pad, or just stick to a .22 dosent seem to bother my niece any. My mossy is the first gun in the truck on duck'n days some may laugh it got some pitting and its sloppy but the ducks if they could would tell you it works great I think the last time the mossberg chainsaw fired up I heard some winny @$$ tree hugger crying

 

[lastresort777]

Apparently to disagree here is not allowed. I didn`t see any statements by woody that said anything about the gunsmith trying to sale him anything. Only a list of items that he would need. This is a very closed-minded and aggresive forum. Sorry for interupting these apparent experts. There is another forum that seems to have more openminded discussions that I can give anyone who`s interested. Just send me a P.M. and I`ll give the site to ya. I don`t want to offend THR by posting it.

Lastresort777, Don`t worry about this discussion and definetly don`t think that this is a normal thread. Yeah I never said anything about a salesman trying to sale me anything. Some people just don`t like to be disagreed with. You`ll find that there are a lot of 1 inch groupers at 25 + yards and that sort of thing and a few guys that are difficult to carry on an educated discussion but they are few and far between. I`ve made about 30 friends and lots of other great aquaintances and I`ve only had 2 or 3 "run-ins" such as this. So just hang around because there is some great info on this forum. Oh, and don`t let`m scare ya off with the old,"I`ve got more posts than you so you can`t comment" either. Hang out and have fun.

 

[lastresort777]

I`ve seen you on that other post haven`t I? You`re the one that works with --- I`ll send you a PM.

lastresort777

I would hope you would stay as a pretty new member myself Im hear to find good info when I can and some good laughs at those who couldnt find there nose in broad daylight.

Just a note for readers who might dig this up later, lastresort777 and woodstock72000 are the same person. You might want to consider that in evaluating the credibility of their posts.

If that is the case then they/he should be banned.

Thanks for the information. I always hate when someone brings the level of conversation down like that....

The round count without breakages seemed awfully high, but I will take one at their word until they prove they are no longer trustworthy.

 

[taliv]

the first sign of being untrustworthy, is the inability to construct a simple paragraph. I don't know anyone with 10,000+ rnds of experience who can't also make subjects and verbs agree, or find the comma key on their keyboard at just the right moment.

 

[TexasRifleman]

Well I talked to Double Naught, and I am gonna get in on this when it happens.

I don't usually track round count but this particular 10MM 1911 was my IPSC gun for years and I keep the empty primer boxes so I can have some idea of how many rounds it's fired. I lay the boxes flat and throw them on a shelf. Each box held 1000 primers, WLP to be precise.

I have 58 boxes tossed up on a shelf.

That will be the gun I run in this. I remember very few failures of any kind but my luck I'll get 20 rounds in and it will stovepipe for the first time ever

Either way it will be interesting.

Not nearly as interesting as watching a poster here talking to themselves, but still interesting.

 

[dwave]

Just read through this thread, very interesting really. I would enter my fully stock Colt 1911a1 Govt. Model. It's from WWII, made in 1943. Don't know how good it is, but I have never had to replace any parts, it's all original. I got it from a guy who had it in WWII. Too bad I got Laid off and have no money, lol, but it happens! If you have one near OH and my job situation is good, I'm in!

I figured that lastresort777 and woodstock72000 was the same person just the way they reacted and talked. Bartholomew Roberts confirmed it.

 

[hotwheelz]

Well I guess Im all alone with mossberg glee if woodstock and lastresort are the same guy then there word dosent mean crap, Im happy with my mossberg dont know how much longer it will hold up but its paid for itself time and again I would have no problem saying it can run 500+ without mishap{ I guess I got cought up in the round count Im not saying it hasnt had a fubar a time or 3 in its history and my count is a guess???} but Im a little far away to play with you guys. Actions speak louder then words in this instance so Ill shut up and let the people participating give us there results. Hope you guys have fun.

 

[atblis]

Well

If I were entering a match such as this, I would do my own quality check on the ammo. Perhaps even run it all through a Lee FC die.

 

[Littlemac]

How in the world did you find out that woodstock and last resort were the same guy. What a putz.

Let me see what else this guy has done. Wow. LM

HAHA .. I figured that while reading and was thinking someone would point it out .. They both use that weird apostrophe ( ` instead of ' )..

The admin most likely found out by checking the IP of the user ..

Seems like I recall that it's a violation of THR policy to use more than one screen name, etc. Now I see why!

Every post has been some BS or flaming or trolling. Now, there's an alias to co-sign it all!

That's funny!

I've read some of Woody's other posts. He has no credibility. Just very thin skin.

pwn3d!!

Thank God! This guy was irritating the hell out of me with his inane posts. Please tell me he's banned for breaking the multiple user names rule as well as trolling ever since he joined THR.

Can you hear the sound of me wincing from there? Imagine you break a barrel link doing it and your WWII 45 is no longer 100%. Ouch.

i got distracted by the idiocy and overlooked this post:

I don't usually track round count but this particular 10MM 1911 was my IPSC gun for years and I keep the empty primer boxes so I can have some idea of how many rounds it's fired. I lay the boxes flat and throw them on a shelf. Each box held 1000 primers, WLP to be precise.

I have 58 boxes tossed up on a shelf.

you've shot 58,000 rnds of 10MM and call yourself a rifleman?
I don't know anyone personally who has fired more than a few boxes of 10MM through any kind of gun. that's pretty dang impressive in any caliber, but for 10MM, that's just crazy. maybe they should have a heavy metal category or something.

I can't wait to hear how your gun does in the next match. best of luck.
