Re: 1911 SAFTEY QUESTION

When I first got my Kimber 10mm Eclipse Custom II, I didn't like the fact that there was not as much resistance as I would like when the thumb safety was switched between on and off. I asked a...

Re: Ruger Commander Out

I might be mistaken, but I THINK the Ruger webpage showed 8 rounds for their full-size 1911, vs 7 rounds for their commander-sized 1911 ... I just didn't understand why they would be different, if...

Re: Shoulder Holster for 1911?

I carry a full-size all-steel 10mm Kimber in a homemade, under-the-shirt vertical shoulder holster ... all day, every day, any time I have my clothes on. I wouldn't carry it any other way. It IS a...

Good eye! Makes me suspect that the photo was probably staged. Too bad ... I enjoyed it before that.

Re: shoulder holster

I use a homemade vertical under-the-shirt shoulder holster (for my full-size, all-steel 1911). Conceals close to perfectly ... conceals much better and is much more comfortable than my IWB and OWB...

Re: Lightest 1911 ...
