Steve J Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) #1 also needs to excluded guns with those dorky looking race ready frames and the use of any add on magwell that is wider than normal 1911 grip panels when attached. By the way, where do I sign up? Edited for semantics. Edited January 24, 2008 by Steve J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Merlin, as the Founding member, will have to address this issue, but being he is an advocate of magwells, I would suggust that, knowing our founding father is presently at lunch, DELETE the above immediately if you care to be considered for membership. As a NOTE, this is NOT a democratic organization, so I suggest, play by the rules set forth, otherwise, go shoot your plastic gun. By the way, where do I sign up? I would suggest first deleting any suggestions you might have inadvertently posted, and then submit your membership application to the Nomination Committee Chairman, with appropriate photos of course Edited January 24, 2008 by zhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve J Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Don't own a plastic gun. Don't even like plastic followers in my magazines. I would replace the plastic base pads with metal ones, but then they'd probably be illegal. I submit that no one is more of a 1911 elitist/snob than I. Death to grossly large ugly mag wells. Long live the esthetically appealing S&A mag well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non-ownership of a polymer framed firearm will bode well to balance some of the remarks you have posted pertaining to our Founding Father's beloved magazine wells. Feel free to submit application.

I never had a photo taken of the other side. Just some scroll work and campaign dates. I was always most fond of the left side with the image of the U.S.S. Battleship Texas. Edited to add: I don't have photos of my competition Baers, so I'll offer up more JMB 1911 eye candy. Edited January 24, 2008 by Steve J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Sierpina Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) Shooters with 3 digit USPSA number should be grandfathered in.

The ambi safety might get you blackballed Jim. I'd delete those pics PDQ and post some without. I believe that our founding father approves of ambi-safeties, but will let him weigh in on this issue upon his return from lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Sierpina Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Z, the grips on Jim's blaster are Rogers grips... Before your time in the game. I think production was stopped when Bill Rogers sold the business to Safariland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
