Oh, then I agree. Lots more own pistols than shoot in any sort of competitive way.

What do you guys run for magazines in your 1911s? I use a mix of Dlask/ACT 8 rounders and 7 round Metalforms along with the 3 OEM Springfields {Metalforms?} that came with the gun. I soak all my mags in G96 oil after cleaning them and then I let them dry, the G96 leaves a dry lube film behind and that allows them to run a whole lot smoother for a long time.

I'm using the two mags that came with the Springfield, and added two Wilson Combat 8rd magazines. The factory mags have fed both fmj and jhp with no problems. I haven't had a chance to try the Wilson Combat mags yet.

Don, I'm looking forward to it! I'm about to respond to your pm.

LOL, I have several an armourer gave me!

Ruger LCP .380 came in

Prescott, AZ! That's where I went to school..

*I* am a revolver girl. But our revolver isn't usually CCW-practical, though I have carried it on an Andrews Leather pancake holster on a VERY THICK leather belt and jeans. It is our . 44 Magnum, a Smith & Wesson Model 29-3 Special Combat Magnum with the 3" barrel, wood combat grips, and cut-down K-frame grip. Lew Horton had 200 made in October-November 1986 and we have one.

I generally carry a Glock Model 27, ubiquitous .40, with the 3.5 pound trigger group from a Glock 35, a Lightning-Strike recoil rod, Trijicon night sights, and Pearce PG2733 extensions on the magazines. I carry it in a Ken Null USH upside-down shoulder rig.

Will, I will have to email you next week. I just got back from a knockdown dragout in St. Louis, where they for all intents and purposes pride themselves on being as "northeast obnoxious" like as possible (not too congenial there). Nothing like fighting for the sake of fighting. Idiots.

I have to go to Chicago for mediation and meeting this Wed - Friday and have my niece and nephew this weekend (so we'll have 5 kids Saturday/Sunday) and so perhaps next week.

Don, sorry to hear about that! Let me know when it's a good time for you and we'll take it from there.

SpongeBob, I love that Ruger! I'm thinking of replacing my P3AT for one. Have you had a chance to shoot it yet? Those little guns are so cute, but so damn nasty!
