I totally get it. I'm kind of the same way in that the bulk of the rounds I have fired through Hellcats now has been with optical sights so I feel very well served by that model. Also there is a learning process to be able to use optics. It isn't just a throw it on and all is swell kind of...

without my glasses the iron sights are harder to use. With my daily wear glasses or none I gain massive capability with the optical sight. And the short sight radius of tiny guns becomes unimportant once an optic is mounted. I agree they are still not perfect and may never be but they are in...

Hmmm... I hardly ever focus on the front sight like I am supposed to ad never for long periods of time while shooting fast. Just for very short periods of time to limit my inability to see whatever else is happening. In my experience the optical sights durability regarding poor handling and...

I am totally good with the iron sights. I have made a career out of shooting them but with the optics I can hit just about anything I would ever need to and nearly as fast as I can with one of my competition iron sight guns. Also can do it without wearing my special iron sight shooting glasses...

I have experience with the Veridian on the XDs, quite a few variations of Crimson trace on almost everything and Surefire Light/Laser combo's on full-size guns. All worked well but I do prefer the optical sight as an all-rounder. I struggle to activate the lasers easily, especially the small...

Have now spent a pretty good amount of time behind the Hellcat with Shield RMSc. My current thoughts are the optics are far more beneficial to my performance on the smaller guns than the full-size. With the shorter sight radius and attendant difficulty in seeing error in alignment I find I can...

I have at least one of everything and 2 of most now. Lot's of bolt guns from .223 to 6.5 PRC. 3 6 CM's and even a 6 BR. None of those can however be used in GasGun division.. I really got lazy shooting Gasgun. Last match I shot a GA Precision 6 CM Tempest action in a McMillan A6 stock. I forgot...

Do you are saying you have 9mm ammo....

I have many. I Like the old model very much..

That photo was taken in Utah at the Hornady Precision Rifle Challenge run by the good people from GA Precision. That event took place after I wrote the first piece for the PRS story on The Armory Life. I have now successfully hit a target at 1275 yards on my 1st shot, missed several at less than...

Who makes this?

I'm going to get a Ronin Operator 4.25 as soon as you people quit causing these backorders! It may be the perfect full size framed, carry 1911. I bet Steve Horsman has one in .45. Sheesh, I can't even get one yet and I thought I was special!

You and I may be the last of the .40 lovers...

Does it have to be one always or can it be one per day? I love My EMP 4. Would almost always chose it unless I could comfortably carry a full size..

As I continue to shoot my Hellcats (plural, one slide with optic other iron sights only) I am beginning to develop a very strong opinion about which I like better. It is not what I expected. I figured early on (and correctly so) that I would be just as effective with irons as I would the optical...

I have fancier guns but not better guns..

Hope you love yours as much as I do mine. It is so easy to hit things with! Of course I love 1911's and 9mm versions are so sweet to shoot. It is great size. Great combination of small enough and big enough..

I have only used the Shield RMSc so far but after reading the story on The Armory Life about the SwampFox sights I have ordered a couple. Interested to see how they fare? I have had no problems with the Shields but always looking for new things. BTW I can pretty much hit the head of a USPSA...

Great gun. I have one and have shot it a lot. Mine has been fiddled with a bit adding a magwell and some checkering but is otherwise stock and is accurate enough for IDPA CCP division competition..

These 2 guns are pretty much the opposite ends of the spectrum for tiny guns. The 911 has a thumb safety and the hellcat does not. That may alone persuade you in one direction or the other. Maybe the mag capacity is the overwhelming detail? From a shooting standpoint, triggers are often the...
