Brothers, I have seen the LIGHT!! Please forgive me...

[Sidro]

Scott congrats on the new SR1911, I really like mine. If you are looking for an owb holster check this site out I bought one for my SR1911 and really like it. It is well worth the wait and money.

The 1911 is a great platform. Glad you have now seen the light.
I've loved the good old 1911 45 ACP for 43 years now, ever since I was introduced to it back in Basic Training.
It just feels right in my hands, and when it came time to qualify back then, I shot expert with it.
Never have found another handgun that feel so right.

Congrats on your 1911. Dry firing every chance you get will help get rid of that flinch.

Well, I gave you a good steer with Vance's, Now take a look at Welcome to Zlogonje Gunleathers and give Dan a call.

Congratulations! My SR1911 is my favorite shooter, but I don't carry it because that beavertail digs in to my "side-meat"(certainly no fault of the pistol )...not to mention 43 ounces loaded is a load! I find the XD/Supertuck combo far more comfortable for carry.

Be careful, this 1911 disease is very aggressive and it will spread. My safe is becoming heavily infected since my first one. I can't help but feel it will only spread. My XDs are becoming jeolous as they have even taken over my normal carry EDC option.

Congrats. I'm also very tempted by the Ruger 1911. Didn't see a single one at the gunshow today. I didn't inquire at every table so may have missed it, but there certainly weren't many around.

They are almost impossible to find. I was at 2 major gun stores today who both said they don't think they'll see another one for months.

I think my Glocks are going to be able to commiserate with your XD's.

Yeah... It will really test whether my belt is worthy. I will carry as soon as I do some IDPA with it and comfortable with the platform.

Congrats on graduating to an adult pistol

Now, go get yourself a copy of Kuhnhausen's manuals Vol 1 & 2 and sin no more

Whoa... I'm ordering those right away. I'm going 'all-in' on this 1911 platform.
What's funny is, I still love my Glocks. It hasn't taken away from that at all... only added to the toys I want!

Thank you for your service!
Mine feels right too!

Those like nice!

Oh definitely. It's helped me a lot already, but usually later into a session, it will come up more again.
When it does, I put a snap cap in my magazine to test myself.


Great input everyone!! Thanks!!!

Nice shooting, nice gun!! .. I caught the bug a few years ago with a Springfield Loaded Champion, my current nightstand gun ... followed that with a Kimber UCII in .45 ACP which I carry in cooler weather ... In the market for No. 3, not sure what it will be but I can assure you that once the bug bites, there's no cure ...

[Scott in Houston]

I know!!! I'm so sick.
All day I've been on STI's website and I'm really thinking the Trojan is the next 1911 for me.

What is wrong with me? My new Ruger isn't even a week old??? I'm sick. Sick I tell ya!
