First of all I realize that eveybodys time is valuable and so I thank anyone who responds in advance. I m new to the forum and have been searching for my answers but just not coming up with what I need to know. I want to start shooting SS and am getting ready to order a STI Trojan CRP 45. from Dawson but it will take a little time to get (middle of may if I hurry). In the mean time I have a Colt Commander 38. super to use, but I don't want to spend a bunch of money on gear only to have to get something different when new gun arrives. I think I will be able to use the same mag pouches, belt(obvious one). I plan on getting enough mags with Trojan to start shooting right away when it arrives. My Colt is pretty much stock except for the trigger work that has been done to it. I would have to buy mags, mag well and some sights for it. I haven't decided on a holster yet for either one. Looking for advise on what to do. I m buying a CR Speed Belt, CR Versa Mag pouches, and have been looking into Comp-Tac and Bladetech holsters. Thanks again I figured it never hurts to ask.
