    Starting off on a long trip today.....

    Unloaded firearms in a locked case, ammo stored separately, can be transported through any state. They should be in the trunk or behind seat in a pick-up. Some states do not allow stopping, gas and food are OK, but otherwise it must be a through trip. When traveling check each States laws...

    Are "budget" 1911s worth throwing money at?

    Agreed. I said I could have not that I did. Must have left out that I took some time and found a nice set of G10 grips. I have those on others and am quite happy with the controllability. In the past I've used pr. of Colt checkered rubber grips. When looking through the myriad of choices, a...

    Guncrafter Bro, do you even Dichrolam?

    They look much better here. Still not a fan though, prefer texture vice smooth.

    Ordered a new carry gun, Sig P938

    You'll figure out a way to make it seem good. As far as not Govt. Model, you're right. It's only happened recently that a few are coming out with all of the same styling. I've been considering looking into them but haven't gotten there yet. I've got a P238, same gun but .380 A.C.P. I love...

    Are "budget" 1911s worth throwing money at?

    My two cents. I'm not looking for value, though I have some that are, in firearms. My concern is use first and foremost. Hands down, the very best out-of-the-box .45 I have is my R.I.A. 1911 GI CS. At 4-5 times the price, my Colt custom shop performed a tad better but I really bought it...

    New Case Help

    This may sound strange on a pistol forum but the most versatile case out there is the Pelican 1751. Yes, it is a long gun case but if you purchase the 3 piece foam insert set you can customize each one. Thus creating 4 different cases. It will easily carry your 4-5 handguns, mags., ammo and...

    I used one once and won't again. Thought the theory behind them was sound but unless you change them after every few firings they just fall apart... A JAM WAITING TO HAPPEN!

    RIA Went to the range today with my Rock Island Armory 1911 .45 ACP

    I love my R.I.A.! It's a barebones .45 GI 1911-CS. The gun is capable of shooting better than my weary eyes can see. I was so thoroughly amazed the first time I pulled the trigger too. Other than grips it was g.t.g out of the box. I've only got 1K or so rounds through it so far. Now that...

    Fusion Firearms Fusion Machining Tolerances

    Agreed the fit on the 1991 could be considered sloppy. It is advertised as the modern equivalent of the 40's G.I. .45. The original production tolerances were intentionally 'sloppy' so all parts, regardless of maker would fit. Even so, they were/are more than sufficiently accurate for their...
