Re: Stock & Barrel Eagan

Why do they think that I love cigars just because I like guns? I prefer Bill's one-price-per-visit model and don't like the idea of paying by the hour. Too bad, it will be close to me. I do like the ideas of FFL's and lockers to store guns. Seems a good solution to "Honey, don't you dare bring ...

Re: Help me to make my dream come truth. 1911 in .45

I’ve heard that some Baer guns do that... Mine haven’t but I suppose they are not of the right vintage. I have seen a number of older rifles where the bluing goes to a different color over time. They usually call it patina, but it’s an artifact of how the bluing was done. https://imgur.com/...

Re: Help me to make my dream come truth. 1911 in .45

The fit and finish are nicer on the Baer and Wilson guns. My Baer slide has turned plum colored. Lots of info on 1911forums.com on that peculiarity of the Baer finishes. My reason for not offering suggestions on what to get is that you need to try them and decide. You like the way the Ed Brown fits...

Re: Help me to make my dream come truth. 1911 in .45

1) what didn't fit? size of grip, angle of grip, length to trigger, etc.? 2) government (full size) or willing to consider smaller sizes which are easier to carry? 3) why the limitation to .45 when they are also available in 9 mm? I bought a used Baer and in hindsight would have bought something new...

Re: Gunsmith Sticky?

Ahlman's built a custom barrel/red dot frame for me that I designed. I didn't blue the finished barrel, but chose to give it a metallic durakote. It still looks and shoots well - I was happy with the workmanship, but on the other side, the bill was :o

Re: I'm discouraged...

I recently looked into the history of the 2A and was educated about the history in England of taking guns away from just Catholics. It was wise for the founding fathers to include such a protection from an over-reaching Federal Government (which many didn't want to let develop, but were sure that it...
