A certain package arrived today with the final pieces………

I have always loved the 1911, but over the years I’ve tried other platforms. Sig Sauer for a while, but the high bore axis never did it for me. I always resisted the CZ’s, until our new gun club opened up. They had a Shadow 2 there that I just couldn’t resist, once I held it. Took my middle...

So the time has come to sell my last 10 mm handgun. I have transitioned, as I’ve aged, to 9 mm, .38 super and .45 auto. I’ve shot a lot of 10 mm over the years, probably over 20,000 rounds. Loved it as a youth. Now it’s time to move on. This is a Wilson Combat Hunter that I had commissioned...

I have a friend who is into the tacticool polymers with RMRs, and such. He is a firm believer in RMRs on his carry guns, because the dot is easier on his aging eyes to pickup quickly. I am not getting any younger, but don’t have issues, yet, with picking up my front sight. He has got me...

I bought this last summer as a range gun. I carried it a couple of times, in leather only. I’ve decided to move in another direction. It has 600 flawless rounds through it. Here is a short description from the sales thread: Caliber: 9mm only  Finish: Matte Blue  Sights: Ledge rear, Fiber...

I bought this around a year ago for my “higher capacity” carry option. I have decided to go a different direction. It has 500 flawless rounds through it. It comes with all the original stuff, but I will include the Garrett Industries holster with it. I makes for a nice carry package. Here is a...

I bought this at a LGS about a year ago. It has mainly been my nightstand gun. It has been carried in a leather lined Kydex holster (Garrett Industries) once. I have ~400 flawless rounds of all types of ammo through it. It comes with everything that I received at the time I purchased it. They...

Since @Joe C likes naming his pistols, I thought I would name this “the happy accident”. This was my original 1911 University class frame. I did the vast majority of the work on the frame with rounding the edges, filing out the mag well, trigger channel. I also did most of the fitting and...

Felt like a railed 1911 day in a Garrett Industries carbon fiber IWB holster:

Some dirty CCPs in one thread. Here is proof that these get shot and some rough round counts. First up is the Triple Defense 4.25 inch bobtail with 3 barrels, 2 slides Round count ~1,500 in .38 super, ~600 in .45 and ~600 in 9mm

This type of carry interests me for long car trips, and because my right SI joint acts up sometimes with 4 o’clock carry. Anyone with experience care to share their thoughts on it?

This was an original build direct from WC. It was when I was in my 10mm stage. It’s a Hunter in 10mm green with black controls. Built like a tank, it survived a couple of kerplosions of over pressured factory ammo. It did suffer the trigger pad being blown off of the bow. My good friend Joe C...

Let’s see ‘em. Mine:
