Roger that! I've used Wilson 10 rd. 1911 mags in .45 ACP for years. Never a problem.

As I said: Stay with whoever you are comfortable with.

It's kind of sad that you must resort to personal insults when someone disagrees with you, especially when other members of this forum treat each other with respect. This reflects poorly on you. BTW: I do understand your argument and respectfully disagree on the merits.

They ship to Illinois, but stay with whoever your are comfortable with!

TargetSportsUSA.com, as I recall, will ship a case for free. "Free" as in I'm sure they're not losing money on it!. I've been dealing with them for years. Similar to Amazon Prime, you can sign-up for an annual plan that reduces your cost on most ammunition. I used my plan to order a 1,000 round...

Back in the day, I was training with a group of federal probation officers at Sig Sauer. They were required to use 40 cal and weren't too happy about it, although I don't think they complained to their bosses. The complaint was about recoil. As a side story: A very good looking agent got...

Let's not forget dodgeball!

Roger that!

Being new to the M1A and Garand platform, I didn't turn the rifle upside down during cleaning. Accordingly. bore solvent flowed into the gas system. Durrr! Learned my lesson! Thanks for all the informative comments.

Dang, you beat me to it with the OODA loop. Sig Sauer Academy covers this. Along with that vital piece of information, I've been taught never to assume your adversary is alone. Check your six frequently!
