I have on order a DWX-Compact but who knows when DW will start up again. Wilson Combat makes the EDC XP9 (4", 1911 on X Frame, 15+1). It's beautiful but also $2700 MSRP. However, I I could trade in 2 DW ECO's and a Sig P 365 XL recently bought but don't like and only have a few hundred to pay for the Wilson. STI, Wilson XP9 and DWX -C are probably the three best 1911 double stacks out there.

I see two different 1911's, beautiful looking pistols. Are they Colts? Welcome to the forum from the great Northwest...

I enjoy my 1911's also..

I appreciate all your downloads of the first 7 issues of Gun Games magazine...it was a favorite of mine....do you have the rest of the issues 8 thru 15 downloaded ?...if so could you send them as pdf attachments to me at [email protected] .......appreciate it very much, Dave (race1911)

Anyone in the Conway Myrtle Beach area looking to get their CWP, I have a class November 24th and December 8th!!

I am very interested and would attend the event unless something unforeseen would stop me.

Worked through college as a motorcycle officer. Retired from multiple careers and relaxed. Mod 70 a favorite if things are unstable. Hornady 'Critical Duty' is my favorite regardless of caliber (I have high regard for a SIG 226 Blackwater and 21 rounds of 9mm 135 gr Critical Duty.) Will be 'lurking' the sideline of 1911 forum discussions, and joining in as I may have a comment. - Thump

Hi folks I'm a fan of 1911's. Started shooting one on an Army Pistol Team in 1956 and have been shooting them ever since.
I just bought a Gold Cup in .38 Super Auto. It only makes 5 but as Curley said "the day ain't over yet".

Thanks for the welcome by Blackbeard...unfortunately I don't know my way around the website but I'll learn it. Rowdy
