All of the bargains are in Houston lately. :cryin Good luck with the sale, and your upcoming knee surgery, I can definitely sympathize with you. Thanks, this will be the 3rd time. I was told this will be the last. If it goes again I have to have a replacement. Wow that's a good deal! Good luck! Tha...

WTS Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec with Alien Gear IWB holster. Bought less than 6 months ago. Has less than 300 rounds through it. Have injured my knee and have to have surgery.

I got it a week or 2 ago. Threw it away.

This is going to slow LTC applications also???

Can't respond about your post but do have a question for you. Is the ammo good? Ever had any problems?

I came to the realization that I enjoy watching my wife shoot as much as I enjoy shooting myself. I have to wrestle the 1911 from her LOL.

I've been up and down this thread and I'm still not seeing a pic! :rules: :lol: 20160528_133053.jpg I've had the Springfield mil-spec for a couple of years now. Great gun & too much fun to shoot - especially on the plate racks. A lot of times, I have to force myself to leave it at home so that ...

I know some guys buy them and never experience a single issue, so maybe I'm just snake bit when it comes to 1911s. Modern pistols are ...

Done. Bought the Springfield 1911 milSpec . Already been to the range. Love it. Wife loves it too. Thanks everyone for the help.

I wasn't going to bring it up, but you read a lot on the net. I have never owned a 1911. Is it reliable enough for a CCW? Does it require all the tweaking you read about?
