I want a 9mm 1911. I thought I wanted an STI until...

[pag23]

Because you expect a $600 Ruger to actually run?


Ok

At least we aren't comparing Highpoints to P320s yet

of course they could, but the 1911 crowd is hung up on the .45, which is a handicap, and they are also a bunch of snot nosed blowhards who "think" that they can buy superior performance,without having to put in the work needed to do so............

???
What in Gods name are you talking about?
.45 ACP a handicap?
Snot nosed blowhards, thinking they can buy superior performance sans “the work”.

It is painful watching you gut yourself and bleed out in public like this.

yes, the .45's lesser mag capacity and greater recoil is a handicap, and everyone but you knows it is. I helped Cooper set up the IPSC and we deliberately handicapped the 9mm, but the top hands have become so good at staying in the A zone that the major-minor scoring handicap has been voided as to its utility.

my ruger ran just fine. So does the 80 % frame that I put an armcor parts kit on, but i had to do a lot of smithing on that one. every last pin, pin hole, etc had to be deburred. As I said, any smith worthy of the name can fix a malfunctioning 1911 in an hour. Ive seen some that the mag catch recess was almost 1/8" too low in the frame.I built up the mag catch with weld and recut it, and swc's ran fine thru those guns. Colt is a UAW plant and when they couldnt get all of the members to go on a strike, they'd sabotage the product. I got a brand new series 70 gold cup that went full auto, right out of the box. The sear spring had no heat treat to it at ALL. That could easily have killed somebody

Ok. Whatever you say.
My personal experience differs.

[maximus83]

You helped Jeff Cooper set up Ipsc? Really....this just keeps getting better.

Dude please stop. Did you see what the mod said a few posts above?

[MountainRaven]

I want to hear more about their experiences having cops steal their guns from evidence lockers and their experience hiring lawyers to get their guns back after being no-billed.

If they have any, that is.

What’s there to compare though? They’re equivalent.

Money's too short to waste $3000 on a gun that's not provably a lick better in a match.

I paid $900 for my used Dawson prepped Trojan.

I do shoot a Glock in USPSA though.

Please crawl back under the bridge you came out from. This forum doesn’t need your BS.

Where are the mods when you need them...
