Who here owns a 1911? Just curious.
I currently own a Springfield 1911 TRP Stainless, which I purchased new last Nov. It has Novak night sights, an aggressive front and back strap...and the two piece guide rod...This is a badass pistol...I've owned it since brand new and ran 750 rounds...pure awesome.
Just want to see who else has the Model 1911 and what brand...

My two cents so this is strictly me talking here, I've been shooting guns for 20+ years, military and LE gotta say the Kimbers are overpriced. Before you pay for a Kimber shope around and make sure you get the best deal possible. I know two Deputies who traded in Kimbers within like 6 months! Then again I know a lot of guys who love Kimber like their GF so take it for what it's worth. Me personally I'd have to get a KILLER deal to even look at Kimber and I hate the Full length guide rods too as well as their Field Strip procedure.
But then again any 1911 is a good thing! Every man should own at least one!

If you are set on Kimber, and again I'm not dumping on Kimber, just not my first choice Cordova Shooting Center has a Kimber Stainless II for $799.

New Gun, I always try to find the best gun deals for people and recoil on a 1911 isn't anything to worry about it's heavier so you should get some tight groupings, my girl is 4'10 and she handles the 1911 better them my Glocks or S&W's.

I own a 1911 sig saur gsr 45.acp and I love it I stays in my pillow and tags along with me when I go to certain places.
Other from the fact its a bad ass gun the only problem is the price of ammo. Shit a box a 50 goes for about 30 to 50 bucks and only last me about 20 mins. ![[Mad]](mad.gif)
I will be buyin. A xd 40 or a kimber soon.
Oh and shootin with a mouth fool skoal ftmfw ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

Only thing missing is a bottle of Bourbon!!!
How's that GSR? That's actually the 1911 I'm looking at right now, love Sig P226's figured I'd give it a try. And .45ACP at River City Gun Exchange is like $18 a box.
