    The ol’ reliables for me to establish a baseline are the Bill Drill and the Defoor Hat Qual.

    Probably a better approach but those two are revealing enough for my needs. Toss in doubles at 15 for...

    Here’s hoping, like the style and a short sleeve would be great for the upcoming “flip flops and shorts” season.

    Could without the logo but that’s easy enough to remove.

    I can’t recall if it was LuckyGunner or SG, but someone had Fiocchi .32 Long FMJs in stock. For those looking for easy shooters and/or easy reloads.

    It didn’t quite go well enough to sites on my 2” LCR but I can attest that, from a 3” LCRx, it’ll go right through a porcupine at about 20yds.

    Those dot stickers are great. I usually raid the dollar store in the nearby redneckville for them once or twice a year. Plus 3x5 cards and 8” party plates and I’m set.

    I think he (Caleb) managed to get a Python and a Manhurin to give up their ghosts around the 1-2k mark. And I think he also had an escapade with the Super GP-100.

    I need to dig out my notebook but the Hamre J grips were in the ballpark of 1.5 oz lighter than whatever flavor of VZ boot grips I have for the 442. And the UC grips look like they have more...

    I, too, like Ballistol.

    But I also hate cleaning firearms so the gallon of Slip 725 I bought in ‘15 or ‘16 is still going strong and is also non-toxic. A few sprays, let it soak while I sulk...

    Caleb just hit 10k on his 82 and I was surprised how well the finish held up, given the prior reputation. It’s beat up but whatever they use (parkerizing?) looks decent.

    My TORO is pretty awesome, really happy with it. Trigger went from “good for the price” to “competitive with S&W” over the first 600 rounds or so.

    Plus, Expert Voice pricing is hard to resist.

    Snubs, WCs and/or Underwood penetrators.

    3”-4” guns, Critical Defense 110s, only really because I have quite a bit of them and they shoot to fixed sights well enough.

    I’m partial to Mika for most “pocket” things but, if the coat pocket is large enough then the Force Option pocket holster from Wilderness seems solids. And designed by a great guy.

    If one is new to the 1911 then throwing a small monthly fee to the 10-8 Patreon page is probably the very best way to learn.

    Bypass all the self-titled experts and shills.

    Guess I’ll take the buggy to barn-raising; as I’m sitting in front of a Taurus 1911 with a LCR22 in my pocket.
