MOTHER OF GOD^^^^^

You should come off of one of those for a poor sailor, lol. Well, after that bolt gun project of mine I'm poor! And I wish that I knew someone with one of those local so that I could actually put my hands on one.

we get back to Virginia occasionally, although we haven't been to Virginia Beach since 2009 when we ran the Shamrock 8k and then cycled down to Pungo later that day; in 2011 I shot a couple IDPA matches with various clubs near Richmond

we use our S-V Infinity Sight Trackers for local steel plate matches, 3G/multigun and long range precision rifle matches which require a handgun - mine has a 20 oz trigger and hers is closer to 16 oz measured on the trigger scale in SVI's shop in Grand Prairie

Mine and it's little brother, my old carry Mustang.



And yes, that damn laser is loose and needs adjusting again.

Excellent pictures. I was going to pick up a beater 1911 this year, but the market seems to be drying up on those as well.

Crappy pics, but it works.

Lots of rounds through this one.

what are your thoughts on the VZ grips? i am looking for a new pair to put on my 1911, and they seem to be pretty popular.

FFC: any specific reason you got shed of the R1?

god bless.

No actually... It just didn't have the things I really wanted. Shot fine and zero failures in 200 rounds.

Kimber was stainless, has night sights, beaver tail, skeleton hammer, full length guide rod.. Everything I wanted in the R1..

The kimber has 1 FTL so far in 200 rounds, R1 had zero but from what I'm told 1 in 200 in the kimber is good because it takes 500-700 rounds to losen up.

The kimber Is much more accurate and tight feeling although to me.

R1 is still a great gun and I would recommend it!

I like mine, very aggressive texture and great for a no-slip grip. If you are getting them for a carry gun, they will cheese grate your ass if you have an IWB holster that doesn't cover your back where the grip sits so look at the concealed models that are smoother around the edges.

The black looks much better I think

[FunFordCobra]

Not sure what grips I like better yet. I'm leaning towards the black..

[FunFordCobra]

Well ended up revving rid of the Remington R1 and bought a Kimber TLE II.

WTF dewd? Who is NOT ready to be that guy!?!?!?

This!

[KBScobravert]

I really don't know if I'm ready to be the guy with a nickel mother of pearl 1911. I think this gun is a candidate for a lot of custom work though. It's nice to have a 1911 I can enjoy.

I have a SA NM 1911 from the early '90s that I feel the same about.
