NO, really, we are friendly and here to help.  All you have to do is knock on anyone's door......probably best between 1am - 3am.  Be sure and have the camera ready.  Pretty sure you will see plenty of guns to take a picture of. :usa:   PS.   I bet my flash is bigger than your flash..........

Try the J hook on a fury holster. It is very slim and can go OWB.

  Why wait.........you can shoot without a permit

Thanks for keeping the economy going..... :usa:

OK, maybe time to eat a little crow?  I bashed my Sig 1911 pretty good.  On the advice of some on this forum sent my barrel to Tim Calhoun.  What a great guy!  Helped with getting my reloads more to spec.  But he also did a little throat work on the barrel.  This morning (yes, it was cold)  went through about 150 rounds of mixed brass, LRN,LSWC, JFP, and JRN without any problems.  So hopefully things stay this way, and am a big fan of Tim's.

  And essentially a false report and no consequences for it according to the Child and Family Service.   Geez......that's OK, it's OK for the cops to lie and try an unlawful search.

I've posted previously about my Sig 1911 issues.  My gun works fine with FMJ bullets, factory or reloaded.  But a PIA with lead of any sort.  Great shooter and I really like it.........when it works.  I've shot hundreds if not a thousand rounds or more through it.  But, it seems this may be a throating issue.  Tim Calhoun has it, and from I understand is one of the best around.  I'm hoping it works, because I really like the gun as much as I hate it at times.  However, unless you are really a 1911 guy, which means they do have to be fiddled with some, clean, etc.  The MP or XD is a great choice.

I have taken about a dozen people to Front Sight, near Las Vegas, for the 4 Day Defensive Handgun Course.  It is an excellent course whether a beginner or a seasoned shooter.  It is 4 full days, very structured.  You will shoot about 600 rounds.  I have taken the course 3 times, as well as other courses offered.  If you want to go, contact me for a course certificate or membership....don't pay the list price noted on the web site.  I have had classes with other trainers, some which  have been mentioned, and they are good as well, but IMO, for where you are in your shooting, you won't be sorry about the Front Sight course.

Yes , failure to go into battery.  This happens much more frequently with Lead, RN or SWC,.  OAL is 1.260, and fit in case gauge...  These are my reloads and I have a some issues in my R1, and Colt CC, but less frequent.  But I have had it happen with FMJ FN 200 gr as well, but only in the Sig.  Shot in a match Sat. with no FTB, just didn't do to slidelock a few times.  But this was with FMJ RN, 4.7gr Bullseye.  It was cold, don't know if it was the mag(s), Wilsons, or maybe low temps and lighter load?  Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.

  I can't blame a guy for tryin'....

I have the 1911 Sig Nitron. Yes it works with factory rounds, except for the times it won't go to slide lock with various mags, including Wilson. Like a previous poster, the chamber was reamed and polished on the first return to Sig. But some of my reloads with flat points FTB. Don't even try SWC or LRN, even though they ALL go through a chamber gauge. Sent it back again. Test fire was OK, sent it back with no additional work done. Now with close inspection with the slide open, the barrel, when pushed back meets flush with the feed ramp. From what I have read, all 1911 should have at least a 1/32 shelf at this junction. My guess is that this is the issue. I'm going to call Sig again, but to be honest, I've about had it for a gun that costs this much to have to break it in, send it back, etc. etc. MY Remington R1 performs circles around the Sig 1911.

Well nothing like the voice of experience. I would use Them as my 2nd choice. Still got to say they are different for a reason though.

Interesting. Looks like light strikes could be an issue. Also doesn't answer the "sealing" question . But desperate times . .......if that was all that was available I'd use them.

Evan Todd has submitted a letter of petition to President BHO.  This was discussed on the Hannity radio show this evening.  If enough signitures are collected, it is my understanding he will need to answer the questions Mr. Todd has presented.  This is the link to participate:  https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/answer-point-point-columbine-survivor-evan-todds-open-letter-president-regarding-gun-control/SthSyKt8

It is not the pressure at seating, it is the flattening at ignition which seals the pocket.  Simply do a little google search.  It isn't that you can't use them, but maybe they are different for a purpose.

Contact Fury holster Co. in Knoxville.

What they don't tell you is that the gun they were killed with was the one brought into the home by the assailant.  Of course it also includes suicides.  The knee jerk reaction by the uninformed is that the studies indicate that the owners gun is the one that killed the owner.

I have read that SRP are thicker and more resistant to deformity.  In turn they don't flatten and seal the primer pocket completely, thereby letting hot gases leak around the edges of the primer and will etch the bolt face of a pistol.  The pistol pressures are by in large a lot lower than the ones the rifles produces therby producing the forementioned effects.

Tumbler should be about 175.  Media around 40, and never needs replaced.  Check ebay for tumbler.  Mine is a 12#, I do about 250 cases at a time, and tumbles 4 -6 hours.  These are rock tumblers.  Some folks make their own.  Check you tube.

IMO  stainless media with a Lortone or Thumble Tumbler is the way to go.  One time expense, clean and shiny brass inside and out.  No dust.  I've had both...no comparison.

At a public range this week sitting behind line. Fella turned to me, slide closed, finger on trigger, and muzzled me.... TWICE. I rather sternly said don't do that again. He didn't and I hope it sticks with him for a while. You have to always watch at all ranges as safety is everyone's responsibility.

Well at least they have some .22.   You can't find it at Walmart or Academy.  I'm sure they paid more than usual for it, and have to mark it up accordingly.   CCA has new owners now.  Lighting is much better on the range.  The staff is knowledgable, and they the place is generally packed.  These are tough times for everyone in the gun industry with low inventory.  I'm not sure how a company stays in business if you don't have product to sell, let alone the political attacks on the industry.  So a lot to consider before you accuse someone of gouging.  If times get even worse, just see if your neighborhood Walmart doesn't jump ship, just like Dick's, Cheaper than Dirt , etc.

I got an email today that, ...get this....., Cheaper Than  Dirt.... with the same position

Same here........bought from them several times.  Guess the secret is out.
