    I guess I messed up my first car jacking

    After a very long day down at Durham City Popo Station, I am now free to post the events that happened to me late Tuesday night at the NorthGate Mall, in Durham NC. After I picked up a bracelet at Durham Jewelers for my wife’s birthday, I headed back to my car at the far end of the east...

    Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill... NC in it's entirety

    Well just was up in Oxford at the range Sat. to run the classifier, and have to say that they are gearing up for the IDPA Carolina Cup on June 12 so I'd say the that is the reason why they haven't responded. Well I'm still working on my deal with SSI but gotta go to the monthly board meeting...

    Newbie needs help on new gun

    Any one of those sound good. Just one thought thou, if the STI runs your budget to the max, then get one of the others. Quality holster, extra mags, and at least a few hundred rounds should automatically be added to the base cost of the pistol. That's just my way of thinking thou. Take the...

    Got classified at IDPA

    Yeah, a spair gun is a good thing, or a lot of spair parts for the one you have. My Norinco 1911 is my workhorse with a Springer Champion as backup for CDP. Same parts, same ammo, and same mags round out problems nicely.

    9mm 1911

    That's a lot slide O mass to push with a 9mm. I would think that some sort of minim power factor would be required to cycle the action correctly, like slightly hot 124gr round to cycle the action reliably. The only 1911 style pistol that was made/scaled around the 9mm is the Star-B I think...

    Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill... NC in it's entirety

    I'm trying to get one together out at SSI south of Louisburg, but got to join and then ask the board if I can hold some sort of group shoot there as my guests. Failing that, if Taipei Personality offered up The Range in oxford then that would do just as well. Both are about an hour from...

    1911 slide front searations, eye wash or purpose?

    Dave, Now, those I can live with! But, they look like a pain in the a$$ to cut. Looks like some deep sharp checkering and then the points were blunted to get that countersunk look, but I can't see the detail to well. Not blowing smoke up your skirt, but very nice indeed.

    New toys/books and a rifle for my birthday.

    1911Tuner helped me do a three shot sight in, not too long ago with my brother's NEF .270 WIN. I'll tell you the recoil won't put you on your butt, then again it's no pussycat either, she will have to shoot it to decide. Then again that thing sure will take a deer down in a hurry. I'm opting...

    Sig-Sauer P220 for $379

    Can't really go wrong with a Sig, (other than feeding that monster, and finding mags) but the 1911 is also a god pistol and can be had in various forms. Norinco M1911A1's are a very good buy for the money, and finding a used one shouldn't be too hard. I hope that the folks are involved some...

    Favorite Carry Method?

    Strong side, IWB at 4:00 with a shirt long enough to cover it even while reaching up over my head.
