Simply declare that 9mm is superior to .45 and they will all congregate.

Well here they are....my versions of a Karambit. First off is a matched pair or 1/4" thick 1095 carbon steel. The have African Blackwood scales and SS pins. It's about 9 1/4" long with a 4 1/4" blade. It has a pattern etched into the blade but my picture taking apparently sticks cause it's a bit hard to see it. It has thumb and heel jimping and is a stout and dangerous blade. You can see some of the rock pattern ground into the spine as well. They come with black kydex sheaths. Note....there are some lines on a couple of pictures that are not on the blades. Next is a lighter pair made from 3/16" thick 1095 carbon steel with a different handle shape and Bubinga scales and mosaic pins. The over all grip is less that the previous set but still very good. It also has a pattern etched into the blade and slightly less rock pattern grinding on the spine. It does have thumb jimping on the spine as well. It is also 9 1/4" long but the blade is a bit longer at 4 3/4". It also comes with black kydex sheaths.

Because we really know that .38 Super is the best........

My custom 10mm

If anyone in the Knoxville area wants to see a display of 1911's that's sure to make you drop to your knees and shout "Praise be!" go over to SIA (Security Investment Appraisals) on Middlebrook Pike. One of the owners has dedicated an entire room of that very nice shop to his personal collection of milsurp goodies including probably 40 or so old 1911's. I didn't count them all but it is a lot! All in excellent condition. It's really a beautiful sight.

OK, I'll play . . . . here are a couple that followed me home . . . . .

I have succumbed to the siren call of quiet PCP air gunning. I am trading my 200yrd .22lr Cracker Gun (10/22) for Plinker4life's AA S200. Why? Quiet, effective varmint control in suburbia, accurate as heck, made by CZ (I actually can't remember how many CZ .22s I have owned), light weight so can carry on a legit squirrel hunt, has custom moderator (very very very quiet), target trigger that allows me to one-hole this thing at 30 yrds off a bag, can shoot it in my backyard all day long, multi shot, .177 has less collateral damage potential, easy to pump up with hand pump.

Ken, as I briefly read thru this thread it came across loud and clear that you have a lot of disdain for the LEO community, I don't know why, and don't really care, but that is the message you are putting out. What you need to realize is that while a few in this group might have similar feelings to you, the majority of the group is extremely supportive of law enforcement officers and their willingness to deal with (on our behalf) the societal scum, and idiots like the guys in the video. I respect LEO's just like I respect our military personnel. They get up everyday, kit up, and walk out the door to face whatever this jacked up world is going to throw at them, and they do it for relatively little pay, and with an increasing lack of support at all levels. Are there bad apples in the group, sure.....just like there is in everything (to include TGO). But to minimize or disrespect what the force does as a whole based on a few bad apples, or to treat the guys walking the streets with disrespect because you don't agree with the law of the land is crap. If you want the laws/policies changed you have to come at it from a smarter angle than terrorizing the sheep and antagonizing the sheepdogs.

Just walked in the den and heard this.... http://www.wbir.com/news/local/tennessee-lawmaker-proposes-second-amendment-sales-tax-holiday/404681290

Right now, I've got AMT quadruplets Hardballer Longslide - 45 ACP - 6" Hardballer Standard - 45 ACP - 5" Commando commander sized - .40 S&W - 4.25" (this is a tough one to find, it's NOT the officer sized Skipper) AutoMag III - .30 Caliber Carbine long slide - 7"

Used to be. I used to own a beautiful Air Arms S410. Brass bolt handle, brass silencer adapter....sigh. I put a LOT of bunnies in the freezer with that thing!

You can probably bet that when this crew starts tossing baggage overboard, she'll be at the top of the list... Sometimes there's a logic to telling outright lies. It's a test to see who goes along and who cries foul. You make a list and know who'll play ball when you really start implementing your plans.

Chuck Norris wouldn't fit?

Lots of 1911 guys on here that will entertain conversation on there favorite pistol. Lots of plastic gun fans too that dont mind jumping in cause deep down they love 1911s too. Just post open handgun forum and there'll be a kickstart following.

Well... if you gotta do some killin', you might as well make sure they's killed

Ammunition Depot has free shipping this weekend on any order over $200, before tax of course but still not bad.

Wow, that's crazy ! Well Happy Birthday to all 44 of ya !

If this was meant for me, don't worry about it. If the old saying about everything improving with age is correct, I'm nearing perfection

Dang, now your gonna make me dig in my safes and make a collection pic?

Walgreens....

You keep saying there's free candy but where is it?

She's a total flake.

Here are three of mine, I've downsized some I once owned eight 1911's now just three. Top to Bottom, NightHawk GRP totally redone by Alchemy Custom Weaponry, Middle- Wilson Combat CQBE I had built and purchased through TRACTUS SPEICALTY ARMS, and Bottom pic another Wilson Combat CQBE also built and purchased through TRACTUS.

I'm not allowed to be here

My favorite thread that I never come to

Not one thing. Nicely is a great person, and I like him personally, Ramsey will not pull for this to pass, and if anyone does not think he is still pulling strings, they have soft spots in their head. With Lundberg on Judiciary, does anyone expect any firearms bills to get a fair shake? Beth is the one who killed it last year, she is still in power...

You hit the nail right on the head with that. When folks like these idiots choose this method of exerting their 2A rights, I suspect they are just wanting to be the center of attention for selfish reasons. If they really had pro-2A intentions in mind they'd not cast such a bad light on an the cause they claim to support. NOTHING good seems to come from the kind of attention they bring to gun rights efforts. If any legislative actions occur or any public opinions are created/changed as a result of their actions, they will not be positive.

May the 4th was with them.... 2/8 - 280 days = 5/4.

This site is very informative on anything related to the 1911.

And there we have it.....

Howdy and Welcome to TGO

Welcome to TGO.

Someone should have shown their Mother about birth control.

Welcome to TGO. There are plenty of 1911 lovers here.

Nah, I am just a smarta$$

Folks jump up, take sides and get all passionate when any mention of caliber comes up, even if it's a joke.

Ah, the age-old argument that has no answer. Did anybody read the OP...in General Chat? I'd be proud and walking tall carrying nothing more a Bersa Thunder .22. I can pump 400 grains of lead into something with a quickness.

I trust a 22lr a lot of the time when I am out and not going to be in a hood but just someplace like Grocery store and I trust my 380's a lot when I am going to be other places. People can say what they want about 380's but I have full faith in them. If a person with a 380 puts the first 1 or 2 rounds where they need to be it will do it's job just fine IMHO.

I carried a 22lr loaded with the 60 grain Aguila SSS rounds as my last resort pistol. Even out of a 2" barrel they will penetrate ~8" in gel and tumble along the way. It was not the best thing to carry but it is way better than a pointy stick or club.

From what I've heard from others, check out the Suarez triggers. His stuff is top quality and reasonably priced compared to others. https://suarezinternational.com/

Pig farmers in Ohio are doing their best, say the experts, but there's too many bacon eaters out there who are depleting the frozen pork belly supply. In a pig's eye..... I believe that Disney is making too many cute little porker movies and stirring the libs up to save our bacon......uh, their bacon......uh......well, get what you can while you can. http://stlouis.cbslocal.com/2017/02/01/americas-bacon-supply-is-seriously-depleted-prices-surge/

Welcome

Like this...

Thanks. Just put that together one day on a whim. Found a scrap piece of wood the same thickness of magazine. Traced a mag out on it and cut it out with a jig saw. Used a dremel to smooth all the edges till it fit into a 1911. Then mounted it on a piece of extra 2x4 and presto...I had a 1911 holder. Works pretty good and was cheap and fun to make.

Welcome sir.

Howdy, welcome from Arkansas. I work in Memphis everyday so I'm allowed to be here, lol.

Thanks for the welcome, I'm in Middle TN. Have a great one! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
