IMO, there is no need for a 1911 specific sub-forum. It's a semi-auto pistol, and not unique enough to separate it from all the others of the type.

Steve Anderson used to joke on his podcast that female shooters will get lots of unwanted, and genrally bad, advice, and the more attractive they are the more advice they'll get.

I try to pick up just my brass, at the indoor range I use. I don't mark my brass, so occasionally I get brass from other shooters.
When I shoot at matches, or on the rare occasions I travel the...
I never really thought about that. The load data from Blue Bullets for the 135gr lists 1.150" as the recommended OAL, and I have my dies set so my OAL comes out at 1.148 to 1.152.
As I'm...
I haven't kept super careful record of prices paid, but per roundbout $.03 for powder, $.085 for primers, and $.085 for bullets. W231, Federal SPP, and Blue Bullets 135gr TC. A friend brings me...
Its just the more expensive version of executing a deer at a feeder.
I do the same. Not only is it more convenient, but its safer. My dry fire gun has a barrel block, and is kept in a separate lock box in the room where I practice. No gun that's capable of...
I just started loading last June for the same reason. I quickly figured out there wasn't a real cost savings, but a local M class shooter convinced me consistency was worth the time and expense. ...
That definitely appeals to my penny pinching nature!
While that's very kind, rather than spend $ on sending that, if you tell me what the best parts are I'll just order some off amazon.
Its the seating stem that's loose, and backing out. I use the Hornady lock rings on all my dies.
I didn't realize the microjust could be used with pistol seating dies.
Are these the ones...

You have found yourself a money making opportunity.
Get a bunch of cheap made in China nail clippers, but specify they be powder coated matte black. Then market them as "tactical nail clippers,"...
I actually got time to load today, after several weeks of life (work and home), being too hectic to do anything fun. I am very pleased with this setup.
The mags hold exactly 100 rounds of my Blue...
I just received this today:

Also, I bought four additional magazines:

What about something like one of these, along with many other similar options:

Same here. :(

Have you looked at U-Box from U-Haul?
Sorry PODS isn't available for you. I used them for my last move, and it was great.
EDIT: Sorry I should have read all the way through. Sorry those won't...
I finally watched the 2/28/24 meeting, which is available here:

They are awaiting a "memorandum of law," which may, or may not, be followed by a...
Anyone know what was said about Scott Arnburg, at the second half of the meeting, tonight?
I've heard a couple high level competitive shooters describe target transitions, whether dots or irons, using that same analogy.
I like backpacks for range bags, but find that anything sold as a "range bag," is overpriced.
I'm using an old Ogio brand laptop bag I got free from a friend. I like that it has a silver lining,...
I can only offer that 45# is very small for a female DP. They are usually 70-80#.
That's not to say you can't find one, as we briefly fostered an 18 month old 48# female DP, but that's just very...

Yeah, predictive and reactive shooting can be done with irons, and PMOs, and has nothing to do with the original topic.
