Yep. In fact, the 1911s I’ve had came with a little pre-bent “tool” to capture the recoil spring. But there have been times I couldn’t find it, so I used the paper clip trick. Still more of a PITA than flicking a lever on the side of the slide and popping the slide right off. If you hold the gun...

Unlike many here, I only have one 1911. I love to carry it and shoot it. I have one complaint about the 1911. It’s a PITA to take down to clean. I just don’t like having to compress the recoil spring, put that compression tool in the little hole and keep it from falling out, line up the slide...

I don’t have one in process right now. 9 months or 11 months is ridiculous one way or the other. It’s disheartening for sure.

On average that’s about right. You can go from around $300 for a rimfire suppressor to well over $1000 for a large caliber one. The problem for me isn’t really the cost or the $200, it’s the wait time. I just can’t stand waiting 9+ months for something I’ve bought and paid for. It’s ridiculous.

I’m about to order a 3rd suppressor. Not looking forward to at least a 9 month wait. Ugh. And I’m about 30 days in on the braced pistol SBR stamp. No telling how long that will take.

Seriously doubt this will happen. I’m about to buy another one, so I hope not anyway 😁. I’m sure this is in response to the Republicans bringing back up the Hearing Protection Act to get suppressors off the NFA list. These idiots in Congress can’t be serious. I swear they’re all morons.

If both reports are accurate, two rulings from two different judges, it pretty much ensures this will move up the line, possibly reaching the SCOTUS.

I just submitted one on 4/5. I'm not even thinking about it. Lol. I waited just to see if anything would become of the lawsuits. And nothing so far. I have the submitted email printed out and still on my phone, so I'm not worried about it yet. And I figure if anything comes of the multiple...

I don’t know about shaping a Kydex holster, but I have a 1911 with the laser grips. I got a Bladetech holster and dremmeled a notch out for the laser unit. It works great for me.

Is there any grandfather clause? What do you do if you already own one of the above firearms?

I think of it as more a summer gun because of its size more than stopping power. I have a Springfield 911 in .380 for when I’m wearing a tighter T-shirt and shorts or sweats. This gun can disappear IWB and is light enough it won’t pull down your shorts or sweats being held up with just a drawstring.

Before I traded it for a rifle, I had the Saint Victor pistol you have. I bought the below handguard for it and it worked great. It came with its own barrel nut. The blast diverter wasn’t that hard to get off. They also have the Mod II version with a picatinny rail all the way across the top...

I use a Cap One CC regularly for firearms, ammo and supplies. Never had an issue…

I’ve got 2. Don’t so much mind the paperwork or $200, it’s the wait that’s preventing me from getting another or two. Don’t let my “don’t mind” statement imply that I think these should be regulated, I don’t. It’s just that’s not what’s preventing me from getting more….

It’s scary. If you don’t think this relates to the surveillance balloon the Biden Administration just allowed to cross our country, you’re not paying attention. People need to wake up to the China threat.

Go Braves!!!

Definitely. They ask up front if you’re selling or trading. The trading price is always better.

Better. About a month ago, I bought a Kimber KHX Ultra. MSRP is $1527, I believe they had it for around $1300 or so. Can't remember exactly. That's a cash price. Add 3% for using a card. Seems to me like pre-Covid, prices were even better. They usually give a pretty fair trade in value as...

I live about 30 minutes from this store. I have bought and traded MANY guns from them dating back to the 1980s. I know for a fact that they are meticulous in the sales of firearms. When you purchase a gun from them, the sales man at the counter where you look at the firearm goes over your whole...

This ^^^^^^ I did not get the jab. Did not wear a mask other than going into hospitals for work. Don’t get flu shots. I got Covid around January of 2022. Had a headache for a day and body aches for 3 days. No worse than the flu for me. This was something that really affected a particular group...
