I usually only run Cobra Mags in my full sized 1911's. My SA RO likes Mec Gar, so I had stocked up on those before I got the Colt. I will have a nice supply of the Tripp mags soon..
I was looking to up my # of carry mags. I read good stuff about the Tripp Cobramags so I bought a couple.I've never tried them.
ExcellentIt is confirmed, I can put the Block back in the safe... I can carry my 1911's. I think I will carry the Springfield first. I can't decide if I want to put a magwell on the SA or not. I do want to replace the grips, they are stag, but I have found a better source of stag grips. I am kinda thinking a NHC or WC 25 lpi just might be ordered soon.
Fred, those "lung buster" barrels are difficult to locate!
Funny story Joe pistol, my son in law is a full time fireman/paramedic. They decided to add paramedics to the swat team so he signed up and they accepted him on the team. He out shoots 90% of them with the glock and AR's. Has no formal training like all the full time officers, just natural ability.Wishing you well in your qualifying. Hope it was fun for you.
I remember ( many yrs. ago) watching some local PD officers shoot @ my club's range..it was NOT impressive.
I thought to myself.. If I was a LEO, I'd want to shoot a LOT better than they were..
From their targets, I could see I shot much better than they were shooting.
( & I didn't think of myself as a great, or even good shot )
Good luck in qualifying! Just act like it's another fun day on the range.

Ya know what? Sometimes I think those who grew up around guns, and learned how to use them safely, often turn out better than those who may not have grown up that way. Just look at the "country boys" as an example. Some of those cats grew up shooting almost before they could walk! You learn how to make your shots count, especially when you're shooting your meals for the winter or for supper. A lot can be said for practical experience. Good on your son in law! He did well.Good luck in qualifying! Just act like it's another fun day on the range.
