    Tisas may be a decent choice for a 1911 (where everything is a crapshoot regardless of price) but there's too many excellent, affordable carry guns right now to go down that path. S&W Shields are...

    I'm a big fan of 135 grain gold dots regardless of barrel length but Speer doesn't seem to even be making it right now. It's joined #1 Federal Elite Control as a great but irrelevant load these days.

    School me on the Schofield

    I'd like to start building up a collection of Old West shooters. Not worried about Cowboy Action or collecting, just for my own enjoyment.

    I've got enough fun money to start off with either one...

    Revolver day. The more I shoot the Pythons the more I consider them just recreational guns. The 4-inch was a big disappointment, binding up badly with Sellier & Bellot 158 grain .357 and having light...

    Recall aside, why is it that Tisas seems capable of building a solid 1911 but their BHP clones are squirrelly?

    Rail and optics cut and call it the 2035.

    It may be an improvement on the old High Power but right now it doesn't appeal to either the people who want a classic BHP or a modernized BHP.

    At some point I'll be getting a six-inch blue model because of Burt Reynolds pulling one out of his sock in the beginning of Sharky's Machine.

    I’ve read that one should stick with mild loads in .45 Colt 73 clones but the .357s can handle whatever. Are both those points true?

    .40 seems a lot more platform dependent than 9mm or even .45.

    The Glock 19 may be the standard for a duty/defensive pistol but the Glock 23 is a miserable shooting experience, IMO.

    I've got the 3" and the 4". The extra inch of barrel is very noticeable when managing magnum loads and two vents are better looking than one IMO---and looks are probably 80% of the reason anyone gets...

    I dated a wonderful Israeli girl who liked shooting my Kimber Pro Carry .45 because she thought it was cute. The same gun turns me into a flinching wuss today.

    "The left wants this movie killed" seems to be more neocon marketing strategy than truth. Even the studio that put out the movie says so.
