    I picked up a .45, as I’ve been wanting a LW 5” for some time. It was a few features I like, but I was immediately disappointed by how loose it is. It’s the loosest 1911 I’ve had yet, at least before...

    Maybe read their Facebook reviews first.
    I sent them a slide. USPS tracking said they got it Feb 26. I finally got it back April 12. Not at all the 2-3 weeks they said. Their communication in that...

    Spare parts

    Just think of it as one pistol with lots of spare parts. If you only have one, you want lots of spare parts. I don’t see why all the spares have to be identical.

    I took mine back off, after using it for years. I had it work loose a couple of times, and it adds a lot of weight. The bolt extension weighed too much for my subsonic loads so I got an aluminum one...

    I’ve worn Transitions for...decades. I live in one of the coldest places in the country. I haven’t noticed any real problem or found a better option. Admittedly the pistols I use the most do not have...
