[My First 1911]

Check the Rock Island Armory site and look for Pro Match. I believe it" #51434.
 
There's a 5 and 6 inch model available. Would prefer the 6, but the 5 was on the GB auction.

Sorry, I was kind of confused. I thought you said you got a 9mm Pro Match. Rock Island doesn't list one of those on their website, that's why I was asking for a model number.

[My First 1911]

Are you speaking of the 22TCM package? I'm not familiar with a 22 lr kit, but with all their new offerrings; there may well be one.

 

I just ordered one from GB that you'll like. I'll send you a pic when it arrives. The Pro Match 9mm 1911.

 

Would you happen to have the model number?  I've looked at several RIAs, but can't decide on a particular model.  I like the 22 TCM in theory, but I don't reload and I'm afraid it would be difficult to purchase locally.

[My First 1911]

Ok, I'm a little dense this morning and need some help. What is the 1911 GM? Sure it's something I should know, but just not putting it together.

 

 

Government Model perhaps???

[New Logo]

How can you improve on this???  I have to wonder about our legislators if they had to spend their own money on this garbage.

 

[This is irritating]

Not all of these guys looked like typical "biker" gangs.  Some look like guys that want to dress up in leather and ride their Harleys.  Some reports say more gangs are en route and more trouble is expected.

 

 

[This is irritating]

I believe Twin Peaks is another Hooter's type of restaurant, not a biker bar.

[landscaping question]

So when is the best time to seed something?  Or does it depend on the type of grass?

 

Sorry for the silly questions but I've never done anything other than maintenance kinda work on the yard. 

 

Does this area receive full sun during the summer?  If so, I'd go with Bermuda of some variety.  If it's shaded, you could try fescue or Kentucky bluegrass.  Fescue is best started in the fall, but if in full sun in the summer, must be watered like crazy or it will die.

[My First 1911]

My 1911 is a Rock Island Armory 9mm. Full size and the tactical version that has better sights. Very nice gun, accurate, easy and cheap to shoot. 

 

Oh the RIA are definitely on my list of wants.  The new Ultra models are sweet.

[My First 1911]

I second using snap caps, it really helps me. I use them every range trip. I started using the fist fire method too.

[A Favorite Pistol]

Nice, would you snag me one just like it???  :cool:

[My First 1911]

I wish this model was made in 9 mm.

[EMP has the Government Worried]

Or a bicycle.

 

You'd get a ticket unless you had a helmet!!! :rock:

[EMP has the Government Worried]

Reading One Second After really opened my eyes to all this.

Hunting season would be all year long. Various waves of death. Most wouldn't survive in the first year.

I'd probably load up my guns and ammo and trek south to the coast where my family and fishing is.

 

Unless you have an old car (no computer) you wouldn't make it unless you walked or rode a horse.

[My First 1911]

Nice pistol, now go throw some 230 grain bullets down range.  Just try and keep the smile of your face.  You can use a small screwdriver or guitar pick to press in the plunger to make it easier to put in the slide stop.

[bifocals and iron sights]

http://www.auburnscouts.com/stallingsmachine/microsight.htm

 

I read about these sights a year ago.  They were developed by the Idaho National Laboratories.  They are called Microsights.  I have no idea if they work, but it does look very good.

[22LR at gander mountain]

There were a couple of bricks at Hermitage Wally World.  I think it was the Federal 325 round boxes.  I don't remember the price....sorry.  They also had 9mm Perfecta still on sale.

[Baltimore in the hot seat now!!!!!]

If you read this, it kind of makes sense...or it's just another conspiracy!!!

[Bass Pro Memphis : A review]

The taxpayers of Memphis are still paying the lease on that store!!!

[Titans Draft Mariota]

I feel bad for the Titans. They had a horrible year, get the 2nd pick, and have one of the worst draft class in years. Slim pickings in this draft.

[Baltimore in the hot seat now!!!!!]

On the Freddie Gray matter--

 

[California running out of water?]

Too much energy costs to make it a sound investment before it's do or die.

 

So while the governments of these states wrestle with how to get water, their people suffer.  It would be far cheaper to go ahead and build these plants now instead of waiting another 20-30 years when the cost will go up 5-10 times of today's price.  Meanwhile, California keeps removing dams so snail darters can flourish.

[California running out of water?]

 Atlanta is in the same pickle, except the ocean is a tad further away. 

 

People in Georgia keep saying their northern border is wrong by a mile.  This would give them access to the Tennessee River.  I don't understand why states that border the ocean don't build desalinization plants if they're that strapped for fresh water.

[Best Value For First 1911?]

Still considering the RIA I linked to earlier, but right now I'm leaning toward the Springfield Armory Loaded Parkerized.  To me, this thing is beautiful...
 
http://www.springfield-armory.com/products/1911-loaded-45-acp/

Those are sweet looking pistols AND come with night sights. I almost got one of those beauties.

[Best Value For First 1911?]

Everyone has their opinions about getting this or that.  I think there's tons of good options.  I like them all, but this little gem is priced right.

[Well...that was fun and interesting.]

Sounds like Bud's at Christmas.  I wanted one of those $99 CZ knock-offs!!!
