Very good post. We all need to be reminded of what things were like and the effort it took to create this nation.
Much of the above is considered sedition by a huge percentage of our current administrstion. There have been reports that quoting our founding fathers is considered to be an act of...
I was warned by a retired officer and member of the VFW that any veteran that got mental health counseling, lost their gun rights.
There was a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding about that "law". So much so that I didn't get any help for myself when my daughter died mid 2020, nor when...
Fresh out of boot in '81 earned expert rifle and expert pistol medals. Fired for score at a USMC range. As the only squid there I took a lot of ribbing. The handshake and "well done" from that crusty old Gunny meant a lot to me. I was 17.
I said earlier that I had the Bulldog in 45 colt and contacted Charter about getting a 45acp cylinder for it. They wouldn't send me one. But did fit one to the gun for $154.00 plus shipping.
When I got it back the action was smoother on both cylinders and the turn around time was just short of...
I've had several 1911's over the years, Springfield, Colt, Auto Ordnance, and several Kimbers. All shot reasonably well, some needed tweaking. All in all I was satisfied with each.
I've even won a few impromptu competitions with a late 90's Kimber Classic that I picked up new, it was the best...
I had the charter 45 colt with an additional 45acp cylinder. Held up very well for many (unk) rounds.
Not a whole lot of fun to shoot all day as the savage little bastard was meaner than a skunk with a sore butt. But it stayed tight and acceptably accurate for the years I had it.
I've done it to a G17 to take the G19 mags. Also modified a few Kahrs to the "covert" configuration. It is a good modification and happens often.
And, no. If done correctly it doesn't look like a "hack job"
Full sized guns are best in my opinion, it's also true that the grip is the hard part...
The rounds may be contacting the tab that the follower pushes up to lock the slide open. The way to test that is to use a sharpie to completely cover the bullets.
Hand cycle and look for contact marks. You may need to carefully stone that tab.
Its an issue that does happen from time to time.
I've had that exact same type of flub on a few different guns over the years. Every single time it was on a new gun and always tracked back to grit in the magazine. Cleaned the mags, never happened again.
Save them to pull down when you start reloading or give them to a reloader with a warning. Do anything but shoot them anymore. It's only $20.
My reasoning is that if they miss the powder drop during assembly then they very well could drop a double charge and then compress it when seating the...
