    can anyone identify this 1911?

    It's not a TRP, or a Loaded. They come with ambi safeties. And the TRP has checkered or textured front straps. It appears to be a prettied up Range Officer Elite Operator 10mm, with a Novak style rear sight instead of the newer rears. It's a very nice looking gun, in a great caliber. I have...

    Should You Reload Your Own Ammo?

    Been reloading since the early 80s. I load 30 or so different calibers, and 12 gauge shotgun. I rarely fire a factory round any more.

    What's Your EDC, PLEASE VOTE

    I don't have an EDC. I have an EDC rotation between several guns. Yep...I am proficient with all of them. They include 1911s in 10mm, 9mm, 45 ACP and SIG 357, a Ruger LC9, S&W 442, S&W 624, Colt Python (2020 version) and a host of others.

    Review: Springfield Armory Stainless Steel TRP 1911

    I have this gun. Awesome, great feeling, great shooting gun. I did delete the FLGR and go with a standard recoil spring guide and plug.

    Anyone own a Remington 700? I may be buying one here pretty soon

    I've had a 700 VTR in .308 Winchester for about 15 years. I've had 700s since 1978. The older ones are awesome. Can't speak to current ones.

    Review: Loaded Marine Corps Operator .45

    Love my Springfield MC Operator. I've upgraded mine with a TRP Magwell. I've used my for a duty gun, and as a 3gun and IDPA competition gun. While I've not kept a record of round count, I feel confident it's in the 10,000 round area. I've owned this one since 2011 or so. Mine is a pre front...

    Can You Make a Sub-1-Second Shot?

    I know my limitations. I carry with a security holster, even concealed. I'm not going to make a 1 second draw or hit, but 2 to 2.5 seconds is doable. My most carried guns are full size 1911s.

    Hellcat: The New Top Dog?

    I work part time in a small gun shop. We've had two in stock so far...they both sold before they reached the store.

    Show off your 1911

    I have a 3" EMP in 9mm. Very easy to carry, very reliable. Came from the factory with a front sight that was way too tall, causing me to shoot low with it consistently. I replaced the front sight with a lower Dawson fiber optic. It doesn't shoot the greatest groups, but I still like it a lot.

    CCW with a 10mm

    If I can't hit a 4" target at 50 feet with a gun, it don't qualify as EDC with me. I can do that with my 1911s, including my 10mm TRP.

    Hammer vs striker

    Hammer fired for me. Striker fired triggers seem mushy and inconsistent.
