1911 Single Stack Elitist Club

[steel1212]

Not me, I was busy winning steel challenge with one of mine!

[zhunter]

The little Kimber I shot in Singlestack Division today has a plastic mainspring housing. (Most Kimbers do.)

mgood, your fine, no worries.

I don't think the one in question would qualify for a SS match, the gun model started with a "G" as in GHASTLY

[Jammer1911]

I won a Ghastly Gun at a match this year, however I sold it to buy another 1911, a Springfield Loaded. Not interested in getting confused learning a new set of controls. Prefer to stick with the design I am comfortable with. BTW, how does a Para 16-40 fit on the getting you introuble list? Its more a play gun for hoser matches, no plastic except for the MS Housing and screw on grip panels (which will be swapped out with AlumaGrips soon.

I cringe when I think about my magazine followers and base bads.

I won an XD (Croatian Plastic) and never pulled it out of the foam case. Sold it untouched.

Basepads, followers, mainsprings and magwells are exempt

[Jammer1911]

The Glock also was untouched by me. Thought at first it was a good prize for Production shooting. However I decided to stick with Single Stack and JMBs design. Curently only a C shooter but with some hard work and dedication I can move up. Still lerning what my flaws are in shooting. I can shoot plenty accurate but need to work in the speed part. Playing with shooting with both eyes open. Seems when I force myself I get a much quicker target aquisition. Urgggg but it is tough.

You included one with the 1911 you just shipped to me, didn't you?

[steel1212]

Those are extra lol

[Catfish]

I believe one of our members is shooting plastic today.

Will the guilty party please identify themselves

ooh oh. There are apparently eyes everywhere. Wikileaks has struck again!

Looks like a good birthday present Steve, wish I could get one of those.

Check 'em to make sure I got yours right.

Welcome Jammer1911!

Welcome back webbo! (He was not included on last month's list because his USPSA membership was expired and all his classifications were shown as X.)

[A62335]

Dang missed A class by .26 of a percent! Next month is a classifier match, so hopefully I can make it over the hump then.

[steel1212]

Guess I'm going to have to bust my hump to get my 2nd place back huh

[Corey]

We all you know you can do it with your gear, you just gotta check the right box on the sign up sheet next time, haha.

speaking of gear, got some new Wilson mags for my SS gun to play with. Now I think I may have to get a new gun to go with my new mags

Looks like I'm on a slow but steady climb. So long 63%

[mgood]

I recently got the Comp-Tac Belt Holster for a 1911. Used it once at the match Saturday. Now I'm thinking of getting that Dawson Super-Tuned STI Spartan to put in it. (Some kind of full-size 1911 will soon replace my 3" Kimber in it. Still not 100% sure what I'm going to get.)

Ordered some CR Speed mag pouches. Still waiting for them to come in.

What I really need is a bunch of ammo to go practice with. I probably haven't fired 150 rounds outside of matches this year. "Practice? What's that? This match is practice for the next match." (And I wonder why I'm still D Class in every division I've shot.)

5" .45 is the way to go

But, in all seriousness, I would look at .40 unless you are already set-up for reloading Large Primer calibers.

Just my thoughts

BTW, I ONLY shoot .45

[mgood]

5" .45 is the way to go

I know. But I'm leaning toward getting a 5" 9mm and shooting SS minor for a while. **Ducks and takes cover as the purists hurl rotten fruit** A guy at a match recently let me shoot his and it was like shooting a .22

Don't worry, I also plan on getting a 5" .45 next after that.
