    It was a chilly, but manageable, 24° and sunny today, decided I would hit the range before the snowfall tomorrow. I brought the Glock 43x, my EDC, and my Colt Highway Patrol .38 special. I used different targets than usual, they're the same size, but with a smaller bullseye and tighter scoring...

    Trying to see if anyone can orient me in the right direction. I have two Colt 1911 with the "COLT *** USMC" marked on the slide. I am the first and original owner of both of the pistols which came directly from Colt. The cerakote pistol was purchased before Colt was told to remove "COLT ***...

    inherited my grandmother's 1903 Colt hammerless. I asked my husband to pick me up some 32 ammo, but forgot to mention the acp detail. He bought me 32 Remington UMC, center fire, fmj. Does it matter that they aren't marked "ACP"? Is this just a stupid question? Still like to know, though. My...

    I'm looking at getting another AR, so naturally I was drawn to Colt. I've made my final decision on getting the LE6920, but there's one thing to that. I want to upgrade my AR, with mostly MAGPUL items. And on Colt's website, they have two models of the LE6920 with MAGPUL furniture. I figure why...

    Hi, purchased this holster a while back and was hoping to get some info on it. It was manufactured by Rau fastener co out of providence RI , or that's at least what the snaps say. The holster is quite large measuring at 10" X 4" at the longest and widest point. The holster obviously has a hole...
  8. Concealed Carry
    Hello, I recently recieved my pistol permit & am in the process of choosing my very first gun, which will be used for concealed carrying. I'm only 5'1" so I'm trying to find a small gun, but one that will still work great for defense. I've been renting what I can at a range to test before...

    I know I'm only 18 but I still want to know what my first handgun should be when I can get one. I don't want a run-of-the-mill M1911 or M9. Something with a bit more character as a first handgun. Something unique and uncommon. I've put down a couple handguns that really caught my eye for one...
  10. Semi-Auto Handgun Discussion
    Hey, I am brand new to the forum and this is my first post. I am considering buying the colt/walther 1911-22. I am just curious about how long the gun will last me and how customizable it is. Can you change the grips, trigger, hammer, etc. With parts for a standard 1911? thanks, frank

    I recently received this Colt Combat Commander .45 from my grandfather; After I looked around for info, I couldn't find one with a similar color scheme. Is this two seperate commanders mixed and matched? Any additional information would be appreciated. If you can't read it, SN begins with 70SC.
  13. Shooting Reports
    Well, I decided it would be a good day to go to the ole firing range on the family farm. Just finishing up my last semester of summer classes at college, firing off some rounds at some used textbooks that the bookstore would not take back, gave me some much needed satisfaction. First up on the...

    Ok, so I inherited my great grandfather's 1903 Colt .32, and I love the little gun. It has definitely been used quite a bit in it's existence, worn and faded, scratched, carried, and loved. The only thing that I could possibly wish to replace on this weapon is the barrel. It has become pitted...

    Was cleaning my pistol last tuesday after coming back from the range, and had a few friends over. Well, apparently one of them thought I and they would get a good kick out of putting a empty bullet casing (shell) into the chamber and closing it. Now it seems I can't get it nor can I even pull...
