    Sarge do you know how the new CK E2 compares to the PT EVO 

    I have both. The PT grip is a bit more aggressive in texture but pretty nice.  The Cheely grip is a bit less aggressive, but to my smaller sized hands feels a bit smaller in size, They both feel good while shooting. The PT EVO came on a new gun but I ordered the E2 from Matt and put it on an open gun with a PY frame. The E2 comes with magwell, mag release, mainspring housing and grip safety that does not require pinning.  I like them both, but I am a mediocre shooter and am not running at top speed.

  2. I size and de-prime with a standard Lee sizing die, and then run through a U die for both 38 Super and 38 super comp. I found that with picked up range brass, it works better to size it in steps. when just using the U die to size there were a lot of case gauge failures, and sometimes a small ridge formed just above the extractor groove. Using two sizing dies results in at least 75% less failures. And considering the cost of Super and Super comp brass...

  3. That appears to be a very "old school" single Colt open gun. There is no telling how many "gazillion" rounds have been fire through it. Other members have already mentioned most of the things to check for. Or to be sure, bring it to a "real" 1911 'smith. It'll cost you some money, but you should be able to trust your gun.
