The first day I ever shot pistols, I also shot a 1911. I'll never forget that.

"...and an old German guy said there was a bit of an unsaid joke about the Nazi salute; apparently when they clicked their heels and raised their arm up in the air in a Nazi salute, they were saying, "we're in this much s___." -

Well, I used to work with a manager from Brazil, great guy, but he had some problems with colloquialism's. The phrase "cut and dry" was to him "trim and no wet". "Piece of cake" became "piece of toast".
I'd hazard a guess that "boy of girl" is somewhat like "son of a b....."?"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
"What we get away with isn't usually the same as what's good for us"
"An extended slide stop is the second most useless part you can put on a 1911"
"While Ruger DA revolvers may be built like a tank, they have the aesthetics of one also,
although I suppose there are a few tanks which I owe an apology to for that remark"Comment

Does anyone ever have a tryst with a 1911 and not fall in love with it?Comment

After shooting my first 1911 I couldnt even handle plastic guns and not feel bad. IDK something about the metal in your hand, the grip angle. It just "fits" me better.Liberal commentary from A cnn editorial piece"The automatic M82 sniper rifle is also known as the "light fifty" for its ability to engage targets at over 50 miles. The armor piercing .50 BMG round is capable is killing an innocent child or puppy through 5 engine blocks and comes with a 10 round clip. Why would anyone need 10 rounds of .50 caliber anti tank sniper ammunition???"Comment

I shot my friends SA TRP (not sure which model of TRP "Operator" or not). Wow, I must honestly say that I've NEVER shot so well. Now, I'm not blaming the equipment for my crappy shooting, as my G21 and CZ75 are very capable in my friends' hands, but for ME, that TRP was just HELPING ME group better than I ever did before. Then at a later date, I rented the range's 1911 and couldn't hit the side of a barn! It's my shooting, I know. On that day, with that TRP, I was shooting very well! Probaly the nice TRP trigger was masking my flinching or pulling or whatever else I normally do with my own pistols. It was good to know that I COULD shoot better, if I can correct my errors...and the TRP was just very forgiving of whatever it is that I do.
So I think a GOOD 1911 trigger can really cancel out some bad habits as well. I mean the trigger (as someone above mentioned) is pressure...pressure...pressure...pow! My glock is like "take up...take up...take up...pressure ... pow!" So I'm screwing up when I take up the trigger, I think. Or maybe it was over travel... ... man, I really gotta think about that!==================

Remember to dial 1 before 911.
Forget about stopping power. If you can't hit it, you can't stop it.

Wait, "boy of girl", who had a baby now? I think it would easier to just say "son"Comment
