Glad to see the Giants pull off the win.

You guys sure know how to rub it in- don't ya?!

Yeah- I need a thinner front sight and, although the trigger is crisp and just under 4 lbs, I would prefer something more in line with my Limited gun. I am considering either trying a drop in kit or having Howard look into it, if he has time.

Mine eats hard cast lead bullets at an OAL of 1.250" like it's cool. And the slide to frame fit is actually tighter than alot of other 1911s I have witnessed over the years. I won't mention any Manufacturers and get into some pissing match. But suffice it to say- there is alot of gun here for the money!

At first I was a bit disappointed with the used one I got. After a trip to STI to get a few things straightened out and then to the range really changed my mind. The slide to frame and barrel fit is awesome on this thing. And it is very accurate. I traded an M&P for it and glad I did.

Looks good- but if you can, get the turn done in one step. That will get you to a solid stance quicker, and eliminate the worry of whether you shooting before or after that other foot is hitting the ground. Just my .02 worth....

Happy B-day & try to get some shootin' in today!

The camera positioning is awesome! Sure makes a ton of difference than pictures taken behind the shooter. Great job capturing the action!

Very nice looking- good job. Be sure to post a range report.

Cool- glad to see you did it! Welcome and may there be many more.

That would be too close for comfort....

Why not make your own- I did.

What? Not cheezy? Maybe I could be convinced to go see it- maybe...

Reminds me of that song by Dennis Leary (sp?).... "a_-hole Song" Edited to add song.

Happy belated B-day Hop.

Good point!

Newly taken picture:

The funny thing is- it is my daughter's birthday today. We used to make some funny comments about her going back in her hole when she was delivered, if she saw her shadow. So in 1995 she must not have seen it...

At 7:30am EST this morning amateur weather prognosticator Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow, meaning six more weeks of winter! When is the hunting season on ground hogs again?

Get a hold of the folks at Evolution Gun Works (EGW). They make one for the 5" STI guns with take down hole and make Commader length rods. Maybe if you asked they could drill a hole in one for ya? http://egw-guns.com/catalog/product_info.p...products_id=121

lookin' good.

I think we could all see this coming- I am quite surprized that it hasn't been closed down already. IMHO if it were anyone else bickering I think it would have been. This thread has far surpassed it's usefulness- moderators???

"Sea Chicken"

I end up having the "iron on" ones sewed anyways- as they don't hold up as well. And I just linked to a picture of your patch a few posts ago.

Amen Eric!
