    What do I need?

    Hi all,
    I just bought my first pistol, and am eagerly awaiting it's release from jail. I'm just wondering, what do I need in terms of maintenance stuff? Any recommended brands? It's for a 1911.
    Also, are any of the shooting glasses out there particularly good, or can I just grab anything that fits?
    "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them...This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with.'" -Douglas Adams

      Cleaning kit, lube, extra magazines and a ton of ammo. That should just about do it.
      My shooting glasses came from home depot. Cheapest ones they had.

        make sure the glasses you get are fog free. if you get magazines make sure they're good quality, wilson combat makes good ones.

        i would pick up hoppes #9 cleaning kit, and some ear protection too.
