Well guess I'm out of luck then!Matt Rigsby said:Just don't take a 1911 and you'll be fine.

Take it and a big jug of oil to keep it wet. I would like to take this class again with my 1911 because I think I need to learn to run it more proficiently.Brian K said:Well guess I'm out of luck then!
Ill have a quart of Mobil 1 in my range bag. For my holster Im planning on using my leather Tucker OWBs since thats what I carry, Have one for both my 5" Kimber and Commander sized Colt. I'm bringing both pistols just incase I have any issues.Burk Cornelius said:Take it and a big jug of oil to keep it wet.

It takes a lot to keep some 1911's running for that many rounds with no maintenance
I's be more worried about the holster. I wouldn't want to use my current IWB leather 1911 holster in this class. Kydex is king for holstering and re-holstering as many times as you will diuring this class. My 1911 is going to get a new Kydex wrap this week
Absolutely true, Scotty. However, out of the 4 in our class, 2 of them puked down their leg during the pre-test. Ironically one of the instructors carried one and shot it the entire class. The irony was that his first shot "fired", DIDN'T. Except I think that was ammo relatedScott Hearn said:Not a thing wrong with taking a 1911 to this class. There were a couple in my class and one of them was one of the compacts. I don't recall either one of them having an issue running, but 1500 rounds of .45 in a weekend is no small feat especially in a 3" 1911.
No effin way I was driving back and forth. Especially after that first day of shooting until dark. Get a motel or you will be trashed on day 2Brian K said:Burk did you guys stay up there or drive back to OKC saturday night?

the only issue will be the pounding youll take relative to 9mm. Not a big deal, you can handle it.Brian K said:Ill have a quart of Mobil 1 in my range bag.
