    Blue brass?

    I have a box of WWB thats only maybe 3 years old. 100 round bulk pack. Well, the box fell apart of me today while making some changes in my storage system. While picking it all up, i noticed the brass is blue in some places. Most often. In the recest "rim" area. But some are blue in other areas...

    Reassemble 1911?

    DW Valor so its serious 70 i guess its called. or Original. whatever you call it, theres no firing pin safety. i dont think its an issue with the sear spring alone. as it didnt do it before hand, im inclined to believe if the issue lies with the sear spring at all, its something i have...

    Reassemble 1911?

    I took my 1911 apart, and I put it all back together, using various photos from varies sources showing the sear and disconnector, to make sure i had it right. same thing with putting the sear spring in. got it all back together, the main spring housing required quit a fit of pressure to keep...

    Crossbreed issue with 1911

    JTQ, Thanks for all the info. I spoke to lindsey, she is sending one with a warranty. Which works for me. It will not be cut she said what may be happening is after I wear it, it's lossening up and the "wiggle" or "slop" becomes more prevalent. Sure muff. I took the holster off. And now I...

    Crossbreed issue with 1911

    I didn't until I attempted and made the same mistake that Crossbreed did, and cut too much. you can see my two holsters above. the one they cut, and the one I cut. it seems easy, but one mistake, and your $100 holster is done for. I don't think its hard for them to cut it with a wider piece at...

    Crossbreed issue with 1911

    thats what I am trying to get them to let me do. at first i was toldby Carlie my only options were to keep the holster, or trade it in for the quick clip. I couldnt get her to move on that at all. I called and spoke to a different person, Tom, and he told me he could add the option of sending...

    Crossbreed issue with 1911

    my most comfortable carry position, for any of my carry guns, is just forward of 3 o clock (lefty version), maybe 2:30-ish max. however, the second photo, is at around 4:30 (lefty version). when i emailed them, they told me it was because i carry at 2:30 and its made for 4:30. so I tried were...

    Crossbreed issue with 1911

    on my crossbreed, when actually carried, the beavertail on my holster isn't covered. the firearm seems to shift back. the beavertail causes quite a bit of discomfort when it doesn't have that leather piece behind it. i have tried a non combat cut, and i cant get a good grip without it. has...

    Have you tried Remora holsters? Just a novice.

    I used Remora for a while, had about 4 different kinds trying to find what worked best. in the end, I found that to keep it truely in place, my belt had to be so tight it hurt after a couple hours. if i loosened it a notch, it would move and wiggle, start at 9:30 and move to 10:30 by the end of...
