WD-40 is a penetrating lube. It will deaden your pimers and powder in your pistols. It turns to a gum or shellac-like film. It is not a firearms lubricant or cleaner. Believe what you want. My friend Joe Gamez used it liberally on his Model 19 against my advice. He was found dead in the M-1...

You get what you pay for, front end or back.. Caveat Emptor. Depending on how deep your pockets are, buy a Springfield Armory, Colt, or Dan Wesson - if not a Wilson Combat or Nighthawk Custom.

You get what you pay for. Save your money and buy a Springfield Armory or a Colt.

That money would be better spent by saving up for a Springfield Armory 1911. You will wind up spending the difference in trying to make the Chas. Daly work. Buy once, Cry Once.

Gas Checks are not obsolete and are a useful component for the bullet caster who likes to drive softer lead-alloy bullets fast w/o leading. Provided they are sized correctly for your cylinder throats and bore and but you are interested in developing loads for their design and weight range, I...

Excellent, unfooled-with condition. Has likely sat in somebody's drawer since new. No box or papers. Original Colt magazine. $1750.00 FFL-FFL CONUS where legal. Will take USPS Postal money order or Zelle. Small rub on edge of thumb safety, small imperfections in blue on flats near muzzle, I'd...

WTH? You paid major $$ for a POS 1911 and it took you how long to get your money back (VERY Lucky), then you say they "make a fine firearm"?? It would seem more realistic to say that they have a fine 1911 firearm concept, but their execution is miserable. The only single-stack 1911s worth the...

In ascending order of price: Buy Springfield Armory, Colt, Dan Wesson, or (in alphabetical order) Nighthawk or Wilson Combat SA internals are mainly mim until you get into their upper-tier price point/models. Avoid Taurus like the Plague.

IIRC, they are cast frames. Ruger set the standard for casting in the firearms industry. For my money, i would go with a forged frame Springfield Armory 1911.

When you dip your toe into the 1911 pool, buy from an established manufacturer. You will get what you pay for, front end or back end. Springfield Armory, Colt, and Dan Wesson, are the only ones to consider in the 700-1700 price range. If going deeper into your pocket, then based on my...

I have a few range bags. They're kind of like buying kydex holsters... I have a 5.11 Tactical Range Bag that is huge. Don't think they make it any more as it is a beast to tote around when fully loaded... Great for packing lots of gear to take to the range and then leaving it the trunk or taking...

Hi, turkey. I recommend Wilson Combat and Nighthawk Custom in the same breath. I own multiple exemplars of both. I have a lot of experience with custom 1911s from the storied craftsmen of the halcyon years of IPSC, owning/having owned multiple examples from Armand Swenson, Jim Hoag, Chuck...
