Nice looking pistola,are they a 1911 pattern,looks like they are.

Good choice on the pistol and holster(Crossbreed Supertuck),I had an Ultra CDP II that was not very reliable,but I think I was one of the few that received a problem right from the get go,I now carry nothing but Commander size 1911's,they are both very reliable.I have a Kimber TLE/RL II thats very reliable(hasn't malfunctioned at all),they do make very nice pistols. A couple of pics,2 that I carry and the 1 that I do not(way to big) Just a little bit of gun porn

I recently picked up a Taurus PT24/7 PRO DS in .40S&W,It shoots really nice,trigger is not too bad for a double action pistol.like was previously posted make sure to break it down and clean the grease out of the insides including the firing pin channel,you can go to Taurus armed .net and there are instructions on how to dissasemble the firing pin assembly.If not make sure to run some non chlorinated degreaser in the cracks and crevises on the slide and then oil with a light type gun oil,not too much because it tends to gel in the pin channel.I had a PT140 Pro that I shot all style bullets and weights with no adverse effect on the pistol.Here is a pic of my Taurus,I think they are pretty decent firearms for the money,I have a PT1911AR that runs flawlessly.

Sure is some serious hiding going on,looks like it works pretty well.

2 bucks in the Tactical section of Bed,Bath,and Bazooka's:D

Like I said,what type of pistol do you keep by your bedside,I'll start.Kimber Custom TLE/RL II W/Streamlight TLR-1 and Mepro Night Sights.

I just picked up a Taurus 24/7 in .40,going to the range this morning,when I get done I will let you know how it shoots.I bought it at a local dealer for $419.00 out the door including tax and background check.Heres a pic. Well after hitting the range with my new piece I can say its a keeper,50 rounds of Federal 180gr FMJ and 20 rounds of Winchester PDXI 180 JHP and not a failure in the bunch,although after shooting 1911,s the trigger pull is gonna take a little getting used to:D:D:D

For your under $400.00 the Taurus is a good value and are pretty reliable.I had a PT140 MILL PRO that fed everything I could put in the mag.

Nothing finer than a new 1911,except maybe 2 new 1911's.Congrats I am sure you will enjoy shooting it.

There are a few sellers on E-bay that say they are official Crossbreed retailers.

I have heard that Springfields service is top notch,I know its a lifetime warranty and they should be able to fix your feed problem.I have read on other forums that they are also relatively fast on the service end,sounds like around a 2 week wait and they should also pickup the tab for shipping.Also on a side note what type of magazines are you using,sometimes trying a Wilson magazine fixes some of the feeding problems,just a idea.I have several Wilsons and quite frankly use nothing but.

Thanks for the info,it looks too new internally to have many worn parts,almost like a new slide had been installed.Oh well it does shoot great.

Nice,my opinion on the subject is a person can never have too many 1911's,gimmee 1 more and I'm happy:D:D

Yes sir minus the OD color finish,per chance did Sam get this pistol from you.Is it the same pistol I have now with the green finish removed.I would like a little history lesson if it is.

I have carried daily for the better part of the year and have as of yet had anyone comment on those black thingies there on your belt,I really dont think people notice things like that a whole lot,their too busy trying to talk on their phones or just as a rule arent paying attention.

Today it is a Springfield Compact 1911 in a Crossbreed:D:D

I had worn an MTAC daily when I carried my XD45,now with my Glocks and 1911,s I have all Crossbreed Supertucks,it seems like the Crossbreed seems to stay in one place better for me.I have 2 in horsehide and 1 in the cowhide.The MTAC was very comfortable also but I prefer the steel clips on the Crossbreeds.They all conceal well and are quality made.Just my opinion.

Welcome,if you didn't ask questions we wouldn't have anything to occupy our idle time.

Very nice,looks like bead blasted stainless,I likee.

Very manageable recoil,I think less than my G36,or so it seems.I think the bull barrel helps with recoil.

Once the 1911itis sets in their is no hope for recovery,the only cure I know of is to find one more you just cant do without.

The darndest things always happen when your not expecting it,you been glockerized my friend,relax though it happens all the time to normal people like us.

The other day I met Sam Riley and we did a little horse trading,my horse is a used Springfield 1911 Compact in .45ACP,its a shooter thats for sure,I am a little skeptical of the 1911 with the shorter barrels(3 inch)but she ran fine,1 missfeed on a Winchester 230g JHP,switched to one of my Wilson mag and it ran like a top.I shot 50 FMJ 230g Winchester white box and 25 Winchester 230g Personal defense SXZ,it just shoots.Thanks Sam.Here is a couple of pics.

I wasnt a Glock fan until a buddy at the range said here try mine,now I own 2 of them.I added Pearce +0 extensions,Wolffe guide rod and springs and night sights,after that they are all set.Also Decal Grips in the sand paper finish helps to hold on.

Thanks for the quick reply.Maybe I will go ahead with the sale.
