Smoking price, (sort of speak), for a 1911. I've never heard of this brand and haven't found any reviews. My gut would have to say you get what you pay for. I would probably go with more of a name brand, but that's just my opinion. It's a good looking gun on Palmetto's website. At least at $319...

I carried with a thumb break for years. I feel they were for nothing more than added security and retention. If you're running, jumping fences, fighting with people at a moments notice, they were good to have. Of course that was old school. Holsters have evolved and improved greatly over the...

That punk needs some lead poisoning, several doses. Deadly force is allowed for premediated attempted murder as far as I'm concerned. What a POS!

Every manufacturer, guns or other things, usually make a dud here and there. But without good customer service I don't know how any of them expect to thrive and survive. If he would've bought a quality 1911 we wouldn't be having this conversation. Maybe he'll let you shoot at his berm until he...

Welcome from Tennessee! Same here with the weather. I'm looking forward to some dry days, hopefully consecutively.

Welcome Jeff, From Tennessee. Beautiful pistol! I called it after 36 years. Between military and LE I was done. Stay safe!

Having seen numerous suicides with shotguns in 36 years of LE, there is no doubt this nutjob did not commit suicide. A shotgun blast at close range makes a big splatter of brain matter and blood. As the saying goes, "believe nothing you hear and only half of what you see." Great job by Mr...

I have a Range Officer stainless .45 purchased about a year ago. It was a little tight when I first got it and the return spring was very stiff. After about 200-300 rounds it became very smooth and a great shooter. I'm not a competitive shooter and am not a big fan of the adjustable rear sight...

Well I saw these at Gunmagwarehouse and of course I had to buy a few. My stock 1911 mags were all seven rounders and these were eight so I thought I needed them. I've shot them several times and they've functioned without issues. I would be confident carrying these, plus I have to say I love...

I put a set on my Glock 27 and used them for about a year. As Bender said they are for fast target acquisition and not for tight groups. There is definitely a learning curve with these. I eventually changed them out for a set of Glock factory night sights since all my other guns have similar...

I have a few. All were in AZ also.

I've had similar problems with the WB 230 grain round nose. It wasn't with my 1911 though. I changed every spring from the mags to the return spring and still had the problem. Stopped using the WB and the problem went away. Changed all the springs back to the originals and the pistol cycles...

Retiring shortly from a 36 year "public service" career. Veteran and pro 2nd amendment American. 1911 lover, who lost the last one in a divorce, but rebounded with a new Springfield full sized .45 caliber that shoots like a smooth Tennessee whiskey. I'm looking forward to the knowledge...
