    ? For R.I.A. owners

    That's pretty cool. You make me wanna try switching out some parts between my 1911's. But.... eh, they're not the same caliber so not sure how that would go lol I dunno - I look at D.W's and N.H's and it just seems like it has become something it was not intended to be. Not a bad thing, I...

    ? For R.I.A. owners

    Yea but is his 1911 and the ones we own (or covet) the same thing? I mean - I heard (clue me in if this is BS) that the 1911 was originally held to similar requirements as the NATO CZP01. You had to be able to field strip a pile of them, mis match all the parts, put them all back to together...

    ? For R.I.A. owners

    Yea, I like everything about it (other than trying to find a holster for it). I was raised on Colts and don't find the R.I.A. lacking. It is just weird how I find particular brands of ammo that it will NOT eat. Trying to find out if anyone else has a list going. So far mine is only PPU and...

    Fanny Pack for gvt 1911?

    I know right? While I am no fan of the lefty agenda, I am happy about my purse being "normal" now Plus I am at that age where "cool" is not a concern. Neither is hiding the fact I am armed. Even with IWB, my "cover garment" is a "courtesy", not an attempt at "concealment". I shamelessly print...

    ? For R.I.A. owners

    I'm hoping there's a few of you here. They are (supposedly) the largest mfg of 1911 pistols. For those of you that have a "Rock" - what ammo has worked and what ammo makes it choke? I have ran S&B, Federal, Sig V Crown, PPU, Norma, and my own paper puncher load (180gr TC sitting on 6gr...

    Fanny Pack for gvt 1911?

    Every aspect? No. That is why I want options. I have a holster on order now which will probably fit the bill most of the time. There are times when a fanny pack or cross body bag would better fit my needs. So I'm trying to find people with experience using one for a full size 1911.

    Fanny Pack for gvt 1911?

    Anyone ever found a fanny pack that could accommodate a full size 1911? I have used fanny packs, in the past, for task specific situations- courier and food delivery (had to carry receipts, etc). One thing I have always found - the size gun they say they are made for is always a little too...

    Eastern Kansas here!

    Nice little pile ua have going there! There is just something classicly kule about stag grips on a 1911. Did a family range day. I normally hit the L.E. range so I can not take my wife or kid. Made a special day to get them to the (public) range and figured - I should bring LOTS of options for...

    Eastern Kansas here!

    Hey y'all! Kule place you have here. I have recently went back to 1911's after a LONG break. I work full time security and part time L.E., neither job lets me carry one BUT it is what I carry when I am not at either :) Shooting one now, I have trouble understanding why I ever stopped. The...
