  1. I agree that the show is total crap ---- the first two episodes had "bow/arrows" going up against spears as long range weapons !!!!! I can't see how they can say it is fair when they do not both do the same "stages"
  2. You should think about a Witness Elite Match ---- that is the single-action only one --- has a good trigger and both mine have been very accurate -- I have one in 40S&W and the other in 9mm ---- so I also bought a 10mm barrel for the .40 and a 38Super barrel for the 9mm. I have owned custom Wilsons , Bolands , Clarks and 1911s from other builders ----- both my Elite Match guns are as accurate and reliable as any of them. I just wished I had tried the Witness guns 10 or 15 years ago.
  3. Hey Hap ---- I just sent you a PM
  4. Henning ------ I just watched the vid --- as someone who grew up in Chicago I gotta say " I LIKE IT " Here along the IL./Wis. state line , I have shot IPSC/IDPA/Pins/Steel/SASS and 3-Gun action matches with about 10 clubs within a hours drive of Chicago. I am going to see how much interest there is and try something along it locally. Might become a pump shotgun and 1911 type of match as I know more people have SGs then pistol cal. rifles. BTW -- a .38Super 1911 should be "legal" to use as they were State of the Art back then and some LEOs used them as "anti-armor" as Dillinger etc. were known to wear body armor. 38Super ---- ya,i'm a Gamer Looks like fun --- DaBird
  5. Hello, Yesterday I called in a order to EAA ---- talking with the "gunsmith" , he stated that there were no more 4 3/4" 10mm LS aka Elite MAtch top ends. And there are no planes to get anymore in to the US --------- However , I DID get to order a 4 3/4" 10MM and a 4 3/4" .38Super brl. ---- I already have a .40S&W Match for the 10mm brl and I have a 9mm Match for the 38Super Brl. Maybe you should ask here if you can fit a 10mm brl. to your .45 Match --- 4 3/4" brls. are still only $110 each with $7.50 shipping. Good Luck --- DaBird
  6. Cha-Lee Thank you very much for your offer . I better pass on the grips ---- just bought some EBRs and Obama threatened pistols. I was going to add a magwell to one of my EAAs but think I better get another Elite Match before they go up in price. Thanks again for your offer ---- DaBird
  7. Cha-Lee, I would be interested in the Limited grips ---- please PM or email me to exchange info. Thanks -- DB
  8. I do not see a problem with the .45acp at VERY close range on a deer ---- as been said , a 245/260 grain hard cast SWC knocks the Hell out of bowling pins , almost as much as a .44mag. ---- will do the same thing to almost any deer.
  9. Gary --- thanks for the quick info
  10. Do the Poly witness slides fit on the standard steel witness frames ?? Thanks in advance --- Bird
  11. Been on Cnl. 68 aka Outdoor/VS. for the last two weeks non-stop No shooting , hunting , or fishing shows and only a small bit of MMA shows - just to watch a bunch of over-age juvvies ride their friggin bicycles around Hey --- to each their own , but I don't need to see this crap on cable for 18 hrs. out of 24 !!!! I got a idea !!!! Change the rules to outlaw any kind of seats on the bikes and I bet they will finish the race a lot faster
  12. Both my Elite Match , a 9mm and a .40S&W will shoot under 2" at 40 feet , standing rapid fire with about any weight bullets/reloads that I have tried. I posted a range report on them a few weeks ago with pics.
  13. Hello ---- I would try a different powder and see what happens.
  14. Hello Dan, I don't have any words that will help with your pain , only God and time will do that. Just try to remember that in the black of night , look to the sky and you will see a light , that is your Mom looking down on you and the rest of her family. Very sorry for your loss --- DaBird
  15. I must be getting old I used to be able to change a wiper blade or whole wiper arm in less then ten minutes ---- Took almost two hours to change two blades/arms !!!!!!!!!!! Made in China crap !!!!!!!! Cost three times what it used to and they don't fit and have to be modified by hand to get them to work !!!!!!! Man --- I can't wait for it to warm up so I can reroof my house Gunfighter123
  16. I HATE IT Got a warm day and said to mysel f" only 6 plugs - how long can that take" ---- friggin sideways mounted engines !!! I got the frony 3 plugs out and changed in about 10 minutes. THEN IT TOOK OVER THREE HOURS to change the back three plugs --- I had to lay completely across the engine , use a "combo" of extensions , swivle sockets , and a open end wrench ----- had less then 4 inches between firewall and plug wire boot -- had to "feel" by hand , use open end to crack loose , then get plug socket and "combo" extensions etc. --- was able to get about 1/2 a turn of rachet BEFORE having to pull it off on reset it as it was hitting crap around the firewall THEN , after carefully replaceing two of the rear plugs --- DAMN if I didn't get mixed up and repulled the 2nd plug AGAIN instead of the 3rd plug !!! I tried to get at them from below , jacked up car etc. etc. etc. GRRRRRRR !!!! Good thing I got more time then money I guess Oh --- to be able to have my 69 Firebird back -- now that was a car Gunfighter 123
  17. Hello, I have two EAA Matches --- a 9mm and a .40 ---- both are scary accurate with cast lead reloads. They shoot as accurate as my 70 series Gold Cup. Look up my range report on the EAA/Hennig post here --------- Have fun,DaBird
  18. "edited to add.... And what's the scoop on the slide racker? " Is that what that is ??? I thought someone stole my old kickstand off my Harley !!!!!!
  19. Hello , I posted about a month ago that I bought a used pair of Elite Match pistols , one in 9mm and the other in .40S&W. This past Tuesday I got to take them to the indoor range and shoot them for the first time. I AM IMPRESSED !!!! I used/use a Colt Gold Cup and then a Para-Ordnance in USPSA/IPSC shoots for almost 20 years. If only I had known/tried a EAA Witness before now!!!! I shot about 150rds. of my handloaded .40s and only 1 box of 50 factory 9mm --- I will try to post a pic of my FIRST 10rds. thru the .40 --- it was at 15 yards and I started with the gun in hand --- used my Pro-Timer and finished the 10 shots in 5.76 . Also the first time I reloaded .40 ---- have been shooting 10mm for years in my S&W 610 and Colt Delta Elites -------- I had two "weird" malfunctions with the .40 , about 1/2 way thru the mag -- the loaded round "jumped up" and stuck half in/out of the ejection port !!!! I got three 10mm and one .40 mag with the gun , I was too excited and having fun , so I don't know what mag both the malfunctions occured with. Now to get a 10mm replacement brl. for the .40 and a .38 Super brl. for the 9mm and I WILL BE A HAPPY CAMPER !!! Ps --- I have small hands and the Witness feels much better then the Para-Ords I got used to. Almost like holding a long-neck beer instead of a quart !!! Stay safe and have FUN DaBird
  20. A Great Bluesman gone but never forgoten -- RIP Jeff and God Bless.
  21. For Production , a full slide stop is almost a "must have" ---- I would buy one !!!
  22. Henning ------- CONGRATS on your 1st year and hope you have MANY MORE
  23. Hello, Has anyone used or seen these ?? If so , are they "thin" or bigger then stock EAA grips ?? Thanks in advance --- DaBird http://www.hogueinc.com/getgrip/merchant.i...=553&step=2
  24. Hard to have just one !!! I like the EAA Stock , Para-Ord P-18 , and the CZsp-01 in that order for steel frame guns. For "Falsies" --- Glock or 5"M&P
  25. I do not have any words that will help heal your loss. All I can say to you is that in the blackest of night , if you look to the sky , you WILL see a light -- that is your Dad looking down on you and the rest of his loved ones. Very sorry to hear of your loss --- DaBird
