It's been a while since I've been into the 1911 and was wondering what the latest wisdom was regarding the use of shock buffs.
From what I recall (mid-90's, for perspective)...
Use shock buffs only for practice/range-days to mitigate slide/frame battering.
Do NOT use for carry/SHTF due to possibility of the buff coming apart.
Is the above still good advice?
Is there a particular brand of shock buff that's favored?
Thanks in advance.
