It's tough to get folks to see this.

The hard core striker folks will give you the "this is my safety" stuff, while the adamant manual safety/DA/SA/revolver folks will claim striker fired guns are...

Makes me think of one of my favorite pistol-forum rants by Ernest Langdon

Thanks for the update.

I really appreciate your reference links. I generally remember if an issue happened to you in the past, but finding it to review is so much easier with your links. Thanks....

If using full size mags, you should use those with a bumper pad designed to make them Officer size mags, like these from Wilson and McCormick

The Blue Angels fly over my house a couple of times a week (Spring to Fall) - I was amazed watching that F22 maneuver. Wow!

I don't have experience with that type of carry, but I am aware of holster offerings from Ted Blocker and C. Rusty Sherrick with a muzzle forward cant. Here's a thread that may be helpful.

I own neither, so take this for what it's worth - I've been primarily a 1911 shooter since the late 1980's and an active member on a couple of 1911 forums for 10 - 15 years.

I would have bet a...

Still with the M&P?

I can't speak for Mr. Gomez, but my experience with kydex and leather holsters, is there is about an 1/8" - 1/4" of travel for retention with a kydex holster, after which point, the gun pretty much...

The late Paul Gomez - Paraphrasing - "The advantage of kydex is it's fast. The disadvantage of kydex is it's fast, once the gun starts moving, it keeps moving. Leather is much more forgiving."

Saturday, my wife went through the drive-thru at McDonalds and they passed the card reader out the window to her so they wouldn't have to handle the credit card.

When talking about 8 rounders, it is important to recognize there are three lengths of 8 round, full size, 1911 magazines. I borrow this from a post I made on another forum.



There are...

There are all kinds of folks that like and use 10 round single column 1911 mags. I just think of them as novelty items. Heck, I prefer 7 rounders over 8 rounders. The issue to worry about is nose...

The Beretta 92 isn't really great for those with small hands, but I agree with this.

I've lost count of the number of threads I've been on, on gun forums across the internet, where somebody is...

I prefer the standard GI rod. Most 1911 folks are traditionalists and a full length guide rod is not traditional.

True if you're using the muzzle end to rack the slide. However, if you're using...

Adding - I agree the Saudi students do go through the program with a different attitude than the US and other non-US students.

Or simple American humor as we often throw around "Nazi", "Hitler", "Ayatollah" in conversation. For instance, standing in the lunch line making a "soup Nazi" comment and then realizing you're...

The local news reported on this earlier this week.

Blame was placed on instructors, and other students for an inhospitable working environment. Certainly possible and I suppose some self...

I think folks (Langdon comes to mind) have measured the new lever and reported it is no wider than the original 92FS lever. It just looks like it is wider.

Surely, you can't be serious. I am serious, and stop calling my Shirley.

You can probably lube with anything as long as you use it.

However, I'd stay away from grease if you are shooting 9mm out of your 1911.
