This.... if it fits the original Prodigy without modification (it appears it does), I'd really love to be able to buy the comped slide and barrel separately.

Purely for the fun at the range and its uniqueness, a Kriss Vector CBR Gen2 9mm Rifle. Picked it up about a month ago and it's been a blast. Super soft, close to zero muzzle rise, crazy fast back on target and extremely accurate. Wanted one for a while, found one for $100 under MSRP locally...

$2,200 seems like a slap in the face price to consumers. IMO not worth anywhere near that.

I've talked to several trainers and they all say the same thing. People they train shoot more accurately with a 1911 then any other pistol. The only complaint they ever get is 'it's heavy' :LOL:

I would recommend trying a 10mm before you buy one. 10mm does pack more of a punch than 45 does. If you end up liking it, then I'd say go for it.

I applaud this level of organization. Now I need it. :D

Honest Outlaw just did a video on the 1911 yesterday. IMO YouTube titles are always clickbait, but... the video is pretty good. Quote from the end of the video: "If you were born in America, and you don't like 1911's, we can't be friends." :LOL:

My guess? Supply and demand.

Anyone can have a problem with any gun. My friend bought a Staccato P brand new. It was milled wrong and was sheering metal off the slide when he fired it so he had to send it back. He then bought a BUL Amory 3.5" and it was a jamm-o-matic right out of the box and they had double threaded the...

Appreciate all the comments! Perusing to see what other color I might want now... 😬

That's why I bought them off Amazon. If there was a problem with the grips, instant return, no hassle :LOL: But good to know.

Here's the Amazon link. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086KV51BQ

While I like the blue grips that came with it, I -really- like the feel of the more aggressive grip pattern on these. Plus... I already have the blue and black, so why not red and black? Same G10 material as the original.

1989 Springfield P9C.

Amazon links here - there are a few brands with slightly different grip patterns and colors. Brands I found are Guuun, Cool Hand and Bestwest. I'm sure there are more. I didn't see any VZ ones with the larger cutout. https://www.amazon.com/BESTWEST-1911-Grips-Government-Commander/dp/B08P6Z3F3P...

I actually picked up a set of these. They're regular size, but with the thumb cutout for easier access to the slide/mag release. G10 style grips. They also make some with a more aggressive thumb cutout as well - see the below picture.

Check out EGW if you want a checkered mainspring housing and mag well combo. I do not know if they have one that fits the Kimber so I would definitely check with them first, but they have a few options like this one: https://www.egwguns.com/officer-s-mainspring-housing-magwell-combo-25-lpi-ss...

I just went and bought my first 'real' 1911 (45acp) a few weeks ago. A bit pricier, but It was absolutely worth every penny. Shoots like dream. When you rack it and just hold it you can see and feel the difference. The front checkering is SO good. Once I held one with it, it was a must have...

The VP40 reminds me of the Walther PPQ M2 .40 S&W.

You'd spend more time and money then it's worth to return it, imo. I'd replace the safety selector and call it a day. They're cheap and easy to install.
