    It is a Colt Competition. Despite the many stories of poor quality at Colt my example at least has been reliable and very accurate. I posted a thread in the Handgun section

    She has become my favorite gun to shoot. I have 200 rounds of .45 Remaining now. I'll be picking up some defensive +P ammo soon to see how it feeds and shoots. Probably Federal HST 230gr +P. And I will be looking to set aside some $ for more of the Atlanta Arms ammo which is outstanding...

    Recommendations for a CCW that is 9mm, 10 rd capacity, but very compact and easy to hide.

    I myself have largely switched from carrying my Shield to my M&P Compact. Though I've gone back to carrying tge Shield at work as Shoulder carry works better for that and I don't have a Shoulder rig for the Carry Comp. Yet. That said the Shield's shooting qualities are just fine and can...

    Marlin Trapper in 10mm

    .357 Magnum is so much more versatile for a levergun.

    CA Governor Newsom gave 62,000 CDL commercial driver licenses to illegals.

    You all have no idea what havoc these illegal "truckers" cause on a daily basis our on the roads. They are truly a menace to anyone around them.

    NYGF Handgun Pictures Gallery: Show off your Pistols and Revolvers !

    I concur: But I don't have any .357 ammo right now. Its too 'spensive in local stores and I didn't have foresight enough to order any for today's nice weather.

    Smith & Wesson no lock revolvers

    It really is such a bummer because S&W has many models in their revolver line that I still would like to have someday. 629 Stealth Hunter 329PD (Screw recoil!) 327 TRR8, new Model 19 and 29. I'd like to have all of those. Well, the 340PD has been fine since its first and so far only trip to S&W...

    Smith & Wesson no lock revolvers

    My experience with new manufactur S&W revolvers has not been good, lock or no. Which is a shame because the new version of the Model 19 looks fantastic and they fixed the forcing cone issue too.

    Republicans got their butts kicked tonight. 2025 elections ....

    Mandari will be a disaster for the democrats. No win situation for them. If he follows through on all his policy promises it will destroy the city and cure all but the insane fsr leftists of there democrat disease. Or as more likely will happen he won't enact any of the policies he promised...

    Range report: Colt Competition

    New manufacture .45 ACP seems to be ranging between. 37 and .45 a round online depending on the quantity ordered and specific brand. It's interesting to find +P FMJ of any type frankly, especially at a low price like that.

    Range report: Colt Competition

    Slapping steel at the range again. Still shooting tge Atlanta Arms ammo but its starting to run low. I'm wanting to try some +P ammo. One of my favorite retailers is offering a really good price on Speer Lawman 200gr +P FMJ- $379 for a 1k case. Which is pretty good for .45 ACP. I bet those...

    What are the dimensions of that thing? In relative terms. I get the impression it's like a thin Glock 19 aka G48? Is this accurate? I've heard nothing but good things, I'd like to check one out though I'm set for carry guns ATM.

    I have ONE 1911. There are many like it but this one is MINE! It is also extremely accurate and reliable and I have become extremely fond of it.
