We voted this A.M. Miss LD'S was 147 mine was 150. We watched it go in, and watched the counter change. Regardless of the outcome, God has this handled, I tend to forget that. I believe He is on the side of the patriots, as long as we support the right, and not the wrong. God Bless the USA!

Back to some pistols......
I shot this one this morning. I've had it for a little over a year and I continue to be very impressed with it. It's in the same league as a Nelson Custom and Marvel Precision Unit#1, but at a budget price $349 (vs $585 for a Nelson and $565 for a Marvel Unit#1). If anyone in 1911fanatic's land is looking for a **reasonably priced** 1911-.22 Conversion Unit that you could seriously compete with in Bullseye Matches, check out the products from Advantage Arms. This is their "Target Model". I purchased it "used" but it was unused. It's branded STI International but it's just the standard Advantage Arms Target Model. I'm going to keep the iron sights on this one and the only upgrade I bought after purchasing was their fibre optic front sight, an optic rail is available. Their poly magazines work flawlessly. It's mounted to my 2014 Colt Combat Elite lower, RoCo "The Master" stocks, Advantage Arms poly magazines.
I was asked by a local sporting goods retailer that I frequent and buy my .22 ammo to try out a Bushnell RXS-100 4MOA red dot. This is Bushnell's cheapest offering in a reflex red dot that is priced just over $100. The red dot comes with the weaver mount. I mounted it to my D&T 7" barrel on my S&W Model 41. I sighted it in a 20 yards using a bench rest and then shot it off hand. It seems to work very well. It was a breeze to sight in and I'll keep it for a while to see if it holds 0. So far so good. 1985 S&W Model 41, 2013 7" D&T barrel, Herrett's stocks.

I realize this is not the exact thread for this question, but I don't think it warrants a new thread:
I have a Kimber 1911 .22 conversion kit and would like to get a threaded barrel for it. (Kimber does not make one)
Does anyone know where I can find a threaded barrel for this?
Cheers

Petard,
The CWA 1911-.22 Conversion Unit is based off the GSG 1911-.22 pistol. CWA made "upgrades" for the GSG and that part of his business became so popular he branched into his own 1911-.22 Conversion Units and complete pistols.. They are very well made.
An update to my trial of the Bushnell RXS-100 red dot:
I'm at the 2000 round mark and it's still holding zero (my shaky shooting aside) and working flawlessly.

." S&W 617".. I actually like my 617 better than my Dan Wesson 22 ( but not better than my Mod .41 ) My liking auto loaders better than revolvers, came after my realization ( admitting ) it's a lot easier to clean an auto loader than a revolver. I dislike scrubbing burn rings out of revolver cylinders.
I do admit that I still enjoying shooting revolvers , how they fit my hand. Must be why I feel blessed to get to enjoy both.
