  1. The governor is a Republican.  Baltimore has been Democrat for 50+ years, and has elected black mayors 4 of the past 5 times.  A can of worms has been opened up by the mayor whether she realizes it or not.  If my business or home was burned and looted, I'd sue the city.

  2. I can sort of understand the Mayor's decision in this one.  Letting the rage burn itself out is a technique.  I'm not saying it's the right one, but I'm also not saying it's the wrong one.  

     

     

    Who is going to pay for cleaning up the damage?  Who is going to pay for the destruction of property?  Who isn't going to try and sue the mess out of the city of Baltimore after the Mayor let's this go on?  Ultimately, the poor taxpayers are the ones that end up footing the bill.  The National Guard should have been called out a lot sooner to stop this type of nonsense.

  3. The Ultra line of Rock Island 1911s look really nice. I spent quite a bit of time at the NRA show at their booth. I was very impressed by their pistols. The small graphic on the gun sure beats their old roll marks.

  4. What a blast this show was!!! It was just so unreal to be able to handle so many firearms from so many vendors. I have enough swag to last for months. I hope the NRA returns in 8 years or so.
  5. I was right there with you.  I really wanted a 1911, but had never shot one.  I finally rented a S&W at Nashville Armory.  My first shot was a bulls eye, so i was hooked.  At the low end of your price range, a Springfield or Ruger would be excellent choices.  When you get up into the upper ranges, it brings in Sig Sauers, S&Ws, and even Colt.

     

    You need to decide if you want a standard mil spec weapon, or one with a lot of the goodies.  I ended up purchasing a Colt XSE for around $900 plus tax.  You can get mil spec Colts for around $700.  I just like the all blue 1911.  Good luck.
