I'm looking to buy one and am just curious as to which Springfield 1911's are going to be an option. I'm looking to do a match grade gun and would like the fewest possible parts to work with. I know I can walk into a gun store and find this out, but I also know that with all the 1911...

Looking to maybe get some books on the 1911 or BHP. Any suggestions for the best books to learn from???

I have a 1.5 inch crossbreed belt and it serves my purposes fairly well. I can't help but wonder though if I shouldn't have spent the extra $20-30 and gotten the Beltman 1.5 inch bullhide belt. For those of you that have experience with BOTH belts, could you give me a rundown of what you...

I've been thinking about buying a 1911 and I have a quick question for all of you 1911 aficionados. I really like the Springer 1911-A1 Loaded series in Stainless Steel. The one thing I don't like about this particular series is the fact that they come equipped with Ambidextrous thumb...

Let me begin by pointing out that this happened during the one time I've left my house unarmed in the last six months since I got my permit. My family and I just returned from Missouri yesterday and I have two little kids. My Explorer was completely trashed and needed to be vacuumed out very...

Just finished a 14 hour drive wearing my CB Supertuck and my Glock 19. I have to admit, when I have heard people say in the past that they drive long distances wearing this thing, and that it's super comfortable, I was a little skeptical. But I really do have to agree. The last 3-4 hours...

NOTE: If this is not in the right place, feel free to move Mods. It's getting cooler in San Antonio and I am interested in OWB carry of my G19 with a Blackhawk Serpa. I have a paddle/belt kit and I am wondering which one conceals better. For those of you with experience with these combos...

I've gone and bought all of my "social" pistols and now I am looking for a classy 1911 that I can open carry and show off. Not so much "look at me and what I got", but more "Look at this fine piece of art and machinery". Now I can openly admit that I know diddly about 1911 designs, When I...

I have ordered a supertuck from Crossbreed Holsters and I am curious to know how you guys wear yours. What position do you guys or gals have your clips in? I am trying to find a starting point in finding the most comfortable way for me to wear it.

I sent my application off to Austin on April 20th, I received my permit today, July 31st. Not too bad considering I live in Bexar County and the demand for the licenses are pretty high right now. I even went and celebrated getting my license by dropping my J Frame in my pocket and going to...

I know that I have asked a few questions about holsters for the 642, but I don't think pocket or ankle carry would really work for me. What holster do you guys that carry IWB use when carrying an S&W snubbie????? I live in San Antonio, wear shorts and a t-shirt most of the time, and IWB...

I am getting into revolvers for the first time, any recommended books out there? Maybe something specifically about the defensive use of the snub nose?? Fundamentals of shooting, etc.... Been shooting bottom feeders for too long, I embarassed myself the other day when I took my S&W 642 to...

I took two boxes of this to the range today and had about 10 (10%) of them either need to be struck 2-3 times or just dud completely. I am usually not all that picky about what I shoot but I will never shoot these crappy rounds again.

My carry ammunition in the 642 will be 135 Grain +p Short barrel from Speer. I would like to know what loads have a similar feel and recoil to this particular load. It is entirely too expensive to have continuous practice with. I am a complete noob to carrying and shooting a revolver, so...

Does this holster have a belt loop that you can't see in the photo? IE on the front edge. http://www.blackhawk.com/product/Speed-Classic-Leather-Concealment-SW-J-Frame,809,1418.htm I know this holster is of a classic design that has been used for years but if it only has one belt loop I...

While you are cooking out, golfing, spending time with family, etc.. today. Please take a moment and remember what today is all about. Tip a beer or two back for our fallen brethren that aren't able to be here today. It is because of their sacrifice that we are able to celebrate today as...

Hey all, I am a large guy (6'1" and 260lbs) and I do carry a spare tire. I am looking for a good holster for the 642 that I bought recently. The 642 will primarily be used for summer carry here in San Antonio, and I am open to just about any beltline carry method. For those of you that...

My family and I will be arriving in San Antonio next week for our next duty assignment, and I am wondering about the gun shops in the area. Are there any good shops around Lackland AFB?? I am looking to maybe trade out my XD40 for an XD9 and don't want to get the run around. Thanks in...

My family and I touched down on American soil last night at 9:30. We have been stationed overseas in Turkey for the last two years and are so grateful to be back in the land of the free and the home of the brave!!! Take it from me, you don't really appreciate the rights we are provided as...
