Criminals serve a purpose for them.

45 ACP

Don’t forget the magazines. I don’t know of another pistol for which one has so many different magazine options.

Personally, I never had feeding issues with JHP in modern 1911s using modern reputable magazines

45 ACP

Do we have a 5 year record here for most posts in a thread? :)

45 ACP

Converting a 1911 from .40 to 9mm can be done but it will cost you just as much as buying a second one in 9mm. It requires a whole new top end to be fit up so you are throwing away half of the pistol and may require feed ramp work in the slide. That’s why manufacturers like Springfield will not touc...

If this is what your mags for EMP look like, you can try tuning them: - take the slide off - put the slide stop back in - put an empty magazine in and check engagement of the little tab on the mag follower - bend it outward a bit if the engagement is not great https://gunmagwarehouse.com/springfield...

45 ACP

I've used bullseye in the past. To dirty for me. I reload 40 S&W, 10mm and 9mm for now. Used to reload 44 mag but sold those. Not sure I will keep it but will get 1 box to shoot to see how it feels. Since getting my 1st 1911 a couple years ago, thats all I look at now when looking at pistols. T...

45acp in a full size 1911 is a very nice combination, congratulations!

I rarely go to the range without bringing a .45

Feds finalize tighter regulations on gun stabilizing braces

Remove the brace and throw that away and you have a pistol again that does not need to be registered and can be used with a shorter barrel. Put in a pistol buffer tube if you want to remove all traces of the brace. Edit: the moment you put an M4 style stock on it, you have an SBR. I would not do th...

What happens when you have a registered SBR but you take the brace off? Does it become a pistol and you are safe to go hunting?

I guess building another pistol lower is cheap enough too, then you can move the upper from SBR to Pistol depending on the need.

Does the car rule apply to SBR or AR Pistol or both? I thought I read on this site it was for AR Pistols.

Feds finalize tighter regulations on gun stabilizing braces

Okay so let me get my head around this- Hypothetically speaking, if I built a totally awesome 300AAC upper with a 9" barrel, the Minnesota DNR says it qualifies as a legal deer-taking handgun in areas south of the rifle/shotgun border. And although it hypothetically has a buffer tube, (totally...

New ATF final ruling: Pistol (Brace) vs SBR

Seriously, isn't there any movement (other than wishing) to repeal the short-barreled rifle and suppressor provisions of the NFA? Isn't someone in the House advancing legislation on this? I don’t follow politics that closely, but I get the impression that SBRs are being positioned as the next EVIL ...
