Get the Colt. For one, if you buy another brand you'll forever be wishing you had a Colt (I wish my 1911 was a Colt) I'm sure the resale value of a Colt is better than any especially the 70 series. Colts quality is as good as anyones and better than most. The 1911 is a uniquely American...

Big Mike- I didn't think about the car aspect. Thanks. ............ Phil

Why NOT a .22 ? Better than pepper spray. ......... Phil

Thanks all. I have several relatives (Kentucky) that foster and each family hunts and obviously have firearms in the home. Not sure if any handguns are in any of the ones I know and I doubt any are CC . I was told by the state that they simply demand that firearms be locked in a safe, locked...

I'm a member of the forum where the complaint was started about Bud's and have followed that thread from first post to last. When it was first posted, I thought I'll NEVER buy anything from Bud's! What jerks! Well, as the thread continued (BTW, they returned his 10%) I've completely changed...

Trying not to sound too curt but I'd save a couple more hundred and get a new Colt Commander. I've come to the conclusion that most non Colt 1911 owners deepdown really wishes he had a Colt.;) I wish I had one. ......... Phil

I've had my Chinese SKS for nearly fifteen years (20 yrs.? $100 new) and have put quite a few rounds through it, have taken a couple of deer with it, has never failed and is probably more accurate than I am. Solid too. I refinished the stock when I got it and adjusted the front sight with a...

My intention in posting this thread was never intended to belittle England in any way or to smuggly behave that our way is the better way. I just felt it was a good analogy to what could happen here. Our way is our way. Englands way is well... none of my business! Thanks everyone and...
