Long time gun owner, now developing a passion for the 1911 and improving my overall shooting skills and knowledge. Currently have a couple, always looking for the next one. Live in New York, yes one of the most unfriendly guns states there is. We won't get into the politics of it all just yet...

A good 1911 pistol is a true joy to shoot. The trigger is typically light and crisp, and accurate. The recoil can be difficult to manage for some people. 1911s come in many calibers; the most common being .38, 9mm, .40 S&W and .45 ACP. A 1911 comes in a variety of barrel lengths; the longer ones...

Hello everyone! New member from Tucson, AZ!

Hey everyone! I am a new member, I just joined the forum a few hours ago after I came across a ruger 10/22 m1 carbine stock that is for sale while searching for a used one on Google. It will not let me reply to the post. Is there a certain verification process I have to go through to be able to...

Hi everyone. I’m from NC. I’ve been reading through the forums for the past 6 or so months, and just now becoming a member. I look forward to learning a lot more from everyone! Never owned or shot a 1911, but finally have one on the way after about 6 years of wanting one.

New member here, recommended from Carolina firearms forum. Honestly just came in here to get a hold of a member that has a really sweet gun for sale, I’ll keep checking the forum out and see if its something I can get into. Thanks for having me.

Hello. Just joined the forum. I read some good comments related to my research of a 1911 question and thought I should join.

Hello from Connecticut! Happy to have found this forum. I’m returning to the precision shooting arena after being away for about 20 years. Much has changed, but much is the same. My 1911 inventory consists of two Kimbers from the late 90s and a new WC Tactical Supergrade; the latter will be...

Hello fellow shooters! I’m new to the group and just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I was recently hired by an ammunition manufacturing company, Zinc Point and we’re based out of Huntsville, Texas. I enjoy shooting sporting clays and archery. I'm excited to start practicing more with...

I enjoy reading about guns almost as much as shooting them. And these Days words are a lot less expensive than Ammo! I find the information available on this site to be most valuable but you can’t shoot words and I am also looking forward to when I can participate in the buy and sell Forum my...

I have been a long time lurker and finally decided to join. I have always been in pursuit of the highest quality 1911s money can buy. There is no better forum for finding unbiased information. Most people are very limited in the higher end guns they can handle locally which makes the...

Hello everyone! I'm new to the forum community. Hoping to figure this out!!

Hey all this is Rapid68, long time firearms enthusiast and your no BS Harley Davidson expert. Grew up shooting 1911's but have never owned one due to my left handedness, I decided its time to overcome that hurdle! look forward to reading and connecting with as many of you as I can! Best, Rapid68

I've actually been here for a month (full disclosure) and enjoy the forums. I'm a retired law enforcement sergeant from California after 32years on the job. So glad to be here and retired! I have a variety of firearms but truly believe there isn't anything prettier, or better shooting the a...

New from Washington state. Seattle area. Good day! Carry on.

Hey everyone, I'm a new member from CO. I love my 1911's like everyone else. My dearly beloved is a Colt Competition in .45ACP. Series 70 of course... I look forward to intriguing conversations with everyone! Also, I'm trying to move a Ruger SR1911 Navy Seal Foundation .45ACP 5" pistol as...

Hello, I'm Gene and I've been shooting since I was a teenager. That was a few years ago. :) Hoping to join in on conversations where I can add something, but to do more listening than talking. Having two ears and one mouth, I've found using them proportionally is a good thing.;)

Good morning! This is my first post, and hopefully far from my last. I'm finally at a point in my life where I can afford to start picking up a new gun or two here and there, and have decided that the 1911 is most definitely the way to go! My edc I've had for almost 10 years is a Kimber Ultra...

Im a long time lurker but will be posting a thread soon regarding trouble shooting a problem I and DW have not been able to resolve. Like most of you I own and enjoy many types of guns but have special affection for 1911's. I currently own 3 Colt's, a Springer, and the problematic DW Specialist...

Hello to all on the forum. I am an old school adherent of the "one man, one gun" school of shooting when it comes to pistols. I have been a student of the gun for over 50 years and my pistol of choice is John Browning's masterful .45ACP 1911. I have a Wilson Combat CQB Compact for summer...
