What are you wanting to use the gun for? You can get a Colt Gold Cup for less than the price you're talking. I have one with some trigger work done. The trigger is about 3 lbs and it is very accurate. It belonged to my dad, who did a lot of bullseye match type shooting. He could regularly put 3 shots touching in the bull at 50 feet with one hand with it.

Open carry for the woods, in national parks and CCW. Mostly for something to fight back against natural threats whilst in the wild. I will be moving to Washington shortly for some time, and while I go Lewis and Clark on the fucking forest; I would like to not get raped by, wolves, elk, moose, and bears. Although bears would be like notafuckgiven.jpegOriginally posted by Trick Pony View Post
Although I just remembered that I have a trusty USP in .45, But regardless nothing says Im so fucking cool like a 1911. For better status CJ once said that WWII 1911 bring backs are man guns. Although I wouldn't want to go around the forest and get that relic rusty.First hand witness at the failure of public healthcare.Comment

I think I will start with a Springfield then, but I gotta test that trigger before I buy. Also got new toys to play with.Originally posted by CJ View PostFirst hand witness at the failure of public healthcare.Comment

For an open carry "woods" gun I would probably skip the 1911 and go with a good stainless steel revolver in a heavier caliber but that's just me. For home defense, carry, range gun I wouldn't hesitate to choose a 1911 but for something that's going to be used to defend against some big furry critters I would want something bigger at a minimum in .357 Magnum.Originally posted by Mr_Fiux View PostComment

Well damn, it sounds like you need a Delta Elite 10mm instead of a .45.Originally posted by Mr_Fiux View PostAtlantic Blue '00 - '03 Cobra motor and TKO600, solid axle, full MM suspension

Most 1911's have almost exactly the same trigger unless it's a sport or lightened trigger - good.Originally posted by Mr_Fiux View Post"When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

I agree with Jose, for woods carry I'd find a revolver, preferably a .44 magnum or larger. A .45acp is better than nothing but I wouldn't want to be stuck with it in a bear attack.Comment

How common is good 10mm ammo in stores? It's not a bad round but it wouldn't be my first or second choice for keeping my ass alive when big fuzzy things are roaming around and decide they want to cuddle. Just my opinion, your mileage may vary.Comment
