Re: Well.... Color Me Stupid

After 30+ years of shooting 1911's, I have found that I will 'thumb' the side of the slide on any pistol, as I bring it up. Doesn't slow me down, if the safety isn't there. It's just habit.

However, one day at the range with my brother, I finished a round and while heckling him I absently reached for a loaded mag and inserted my spare mag for the Kimber Ultra Carry (on my hip). "CKICK". It took a couple of 'slap and racks' to realize my mistake (shorter mag). It also reminded me of my concious decision to carry the Kimber. All of my 1911 mags fit it. :???:
