    Bucket List item aquired

    I've always wanted one of these but never had the opportunity but a trade finally came my way I couldn't pass up. Remington XP-100 Special Varmint in .223 with a Burris 3-9x scope. Can't wait to take it to the range.

    Can SA 1911's be modified to fire .45 Super?

    Here is my 460 Rowland. Shooting .45 acp in this thing is so much fun. The gun has no recoil and is smooth as butter

    Is Kimber the go-to for 1911s these days?

    As far as customer service goes here is a great example. I bought a Ruger Redhawk at a pawn shop years ago. It was good but had a lot of scratches and wear but it shot good so I didn't care. I bought it to bum around in the woods anyway. After having it for awhile I noticed it was shaving lead...

    Springfield SA-35 vs. Springfield 1911 Operator

    Review: Lightweight, Optics-Ready 1911 Operator AOS 4.25"

    My question is do you get a free plate of your choosing or do you have to purchase a plate in addition to the cost of the pistol?

    Springfield Armory Echelon Upgrades

    Anyone had the porting done by Patriot CNC as referenced in the article? I went to their website and looked at the porting and I have to say I'm not real impressed with the one in the picture.

    Getting more 9mm Range ammo. S&B or Norma

    I'm a firearms instructor for a component of the DOJ. We qualify everyone once a year. This year we used Norma 9mm ammo and it had to be the worst ammo I've ever used. At least 2 rounds out of every magazine fired would not go off. Good primer strikes but the round didn't go off. ( It went off...
