Nothing like a great gunsmith that can go from weapon to weapon and fix the dang things. I tipped him well.

I have followed this thread with great interest.
Before I knew better I went through all kinds of handguns and many calibers. I sold all of those and for the last 55 years I've only owned and shot 1911s with the exception of the model 29 in .44 mag. I carry two series 70 1911s. My friend, Jim Clark fitted one of them with the .460 Roland. My .460 shoots the standard .45 ACP and the Roland additionally shoots the .460, its case 1/16 inch longer than the .45. The 1911, in addition to being very accurate, with a powerful punch and reliable is also easily concealed. The best handgun ever made is Colt's Gold Cup National Match Series 70 1911. Smoke 'em if you got 'em. Doc Nothing to pistol shooting, just don't flinch, ever. |
