I carry a Colt 45 and think my Ruger in 9mm is the cats meow.. Broaden your search. I think Kimbers are like fake Rolex's....Wanna bees...

I still have problems with the .22/1911, grip safety, sent it back, still same problem. Does not release trigger all the time. Right now safe queen. Spad

Welcome aboard the 1911 Funny Farm, ha, ha. Spad

I have to say the CG grips are really cool, never seen the like. I have the good fortune of having a number of 1911's. The Rocks shoot just as well as my Colts and Ruger. John Browning's master piece is still number one for me. Spad

A good gunsmith can put on a staked tritium pretty cheap, then you can epoxy or JB Weld that Eliasovn sight on, paint it For CQC all you need is that front sight. Trick is to get a big front night sight. Lot of different size dots out there. M has given you all the options with Novac cuts. You...

You could sell the GC and use the money to buy a Ruger 1911, or Colt and a Rock Island. RW77, I think mine is 76 also, fancy wood box. I bought my GC with the idea as a carry, found out be better to keep and picked up a Colt Combat Commander, Series 70. One of my carrys is a Colt Defender 45...

Pierre, take a look at Wilson or other 1911 suppliers, different beavertail sizes, you don't have to mod the frame. I have one of my Rocks that I played with and the grip safety was a problem. That Rock is a compact and my experimate gun, has different maker parts in it. I own, Colt, Ruger and...

Pierre, Lot of these 1911's if you do research are made by Rock Island or use Rock Island frames, parts. Nothing wrong with a modded Rock, The important part does it shoot well and you like it. Lot of gunsmiths don't like to work on Rocks, the steel is hard and wears their tools out. Make it...

You should and can put night sites on it. Actually all you need is a front nite sight. The rear can be done too. The Eliason rear sights are notorious for coming loose. My advice to you is leave it alone as you may run into feeding problems with defensive ammo and the Gold Cup value goes up all...

I tried the murder scene once but got laughing so much had to hang up....

Brad Skinner, thanks for that vent, so sad, I too can remember the Canada of old, we are lucky we don't have a dictator or the form of government that allows it.

Do not forget these were the people that liked King George & Crown and stayed with the British during our Revolution. Even though they have now their own country, they still like the King and all that. They are nice people, I had friends in British Columbia who wish it was the 51st state in the U.S.

I hope you washed your hands before you touched your 1911's. After you have been had with 40 lashes of a wet noodle, welcome back, sinner. Spad

Jammer Six, I see you live in a sanctuary city, so you are excused!! Happy Easter

I got a box of holsters too. Must be a holster virus out there too. In fact just got a nice OWB leather holster for my 1911's last week. Spad
