That works for me as well. Tech/Troubleshooting Notes: Problem started earlier this week The problem is only on Firefox and certain versions of Firefox such as version 70 + Chrome works fine

Dillon RL1100 update from Dillon today
DWS replied to Sigarmsp226's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
Hopefully soon. I would rather see them delay the product and ensure it's right vs rush it when it's not quite ready. None of us like the delays. However, I'd rather have the delay than get a product that is not quite ready for prime time. I've worked in manufacturing / Auto Industry and have seen what happens when a product is released before it's "ready" Reading posts of those that have actually used an 1100 at a demo booth they seemed to like it. -
Nice ! I ordered almost the exact same, will shoot it this weekend. Agreed, at that price point, it's hard to beat !
-
Sure are a lot of "go for it's" I have never had an opportunity to try a DW... I will have to try one some day. Very good feedback on this forum !
-
Agreed - John (CJ) is top shelf and more than willing to share his experiences and stories !

Thank you - Informative post as I'm thinking of replacing / upgrading a guide rod in one of my 1911's I believe I'll go with a reputable brand name.

Found a deal on a 1050... or wait for RL1100?
DWS replied to DJRyan13's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
We look forward to hearing what you have to say about the 1100! -

Agree with Intheshaw1 "decent" used 1050's are hard to find. -

DWS replied to DJRyan13's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
I'm hoping to be able to pick up a used 1050 when the RL 1100 is released Moving up from a 550 to a 1050 would be a nice step up for me -
Very well done indeed - thanks for sharing !

In an effort to be helpful, in this thread.. a few posts up... I posted a link to the 1911Heaven web site as CJ is downsizing and has several nice Les Baer pistols on sale. Well... I ended up buying one myself
-
Another good source for 1911's and he is currently downsizing and the following are below wholesale. This guy (cj) is well know and has a good rep in the 1911 community https://cj1911heaven.com/LesBaerInventory.html

The different heights / selection will allow the shooter to achieve the POA/POI they desire. The above can be useful to fine tune based on a desired load or cartridge Also, there are or can be slight differences from one shooter to another

1911 addicts is a good place to find quality used 1911's I purchased a customized and tuned S&W 1911 E-series for a very good price about a year ago. On 1911 addicts you can often find some very good/fair prices on the used mid tier 1911's like Baer, Wilson, NightHawk, GC, etc The guys over on 1911 addicts, just like here, are generally good folks.
-
I would consider a "used" Baer, Wilson, Guncrafter as they can be found for around the 2K - 2.5K price point gently used. Any of the above tend to hold their value rather well. I have a GC NoName that I like very well.

I'm relatively new ... will have to look at and try Mobil 1 seems popular Good info - thank you.

650xl with Mr Bulletfeeder or 1050?
DWS replied to Cliveb's topic in Dillon Precision Reloading Equipment
T Thanks for following up I don't ever recall anyone saying I should have bought a 650 vs a 1050 I'm hoping to have a 1050 someday -
I'm in the process of trying to setup a Glock 34 ... Lots of good info here Thank you all !!

Dan Wesson V-Bob shoulder holster recommendations

I've heard good things about the Alessi rigs and would like to try one sometime -
Dan Wesson V-Bob shoulder holster recommendations
DWS replied to lfine's topic in 1911-style Pistols
Shoulder rigs, like anything else, you get what you pay for. I have an Andrews Monarch and I like it as I spend a lot of time on horseback or a quad and for that a Shoulder rig works well vs a high ride paddle. Sam Andrews is a good guy to deal with and can/will customize the rig. For example, do you want to carry in condition 1 (cocked & locked... the only way to carry IMO) or (hammer down.. Ughh) ... lined or unlined holster. Sometimes he might even have something in stock. Like most custom makers, if not in stock then you may have a month or more wait time. I like the Monarch rig compared to say a Galco Jackass/Miami which generally require a tie down, are mass produced and may not "fit" your 1911 as well. Moreover, Sam Andrews stands behind his work and when you call to place an order you generally get Sam directly. https://samuel-andrews-crh7.squarespace.com/traditional-leather#/monarch-holster/ -
I agree with what others have said - excluding cost.. I prefer the 38 super Even factoring in cost, I like the 38 super ... especially if bad things were to happen off the range
-
Nice setup ! I too like Inline Fab's gear and prefer the Inline Fab mount over the other options.
-
If the 650 is not in the cards then definitively the 550 over the SDB ! Here's a thought, go with 550 then when/if it's time to upgrade.. jump to the 1050
-
True ! Good choice on the 1050 !
