    Colt to bring back the Combat Commander 1911

    HAHAHA! That's my feeling too! My next Colt (I own 5) is definitely in 38 super. That way I have an excuse to hand load for my 11th caliber type. :)

    Model 1911 .45acp

    I shoot these two regularly at the range at 21 feet and there is very little difference between the 4 1/4 barrel and the 5". If anything, the 5" Colt 1911 (made in 1916) groups a bit wider but that may be due to the WW2 barrel I shoot with it. (The WW1 P over H barrel comes out, she's too...

    New toy arrived: Cimarron Colt 1873 7th Cavalry

    I do not know but when I was doing my research on the innernets there was a fellow wrote an article in 2008. They *may* have started with F Company too. Captain Yates was in charge of F company. Here Comes the Cavalry - True West Magazine

    That tells me that between 4000 and 6000 have been sold, unless it was old "New Old stock". I know of folks that have had theirs stamped "C", "E" and "F" company but not I or L yet. Stamped into the butt of the backstrap is the company and 7th Cavalry markings. Production of this model is...

    para warthog 45 ?

    The Canadian made Paras are top notch. My "Truck Carry" is a Para P12-12+1 45ACP. I had to re-spring the pistol (Wolff) when I purchased it 2 years ago from a friend whose collect I bought up (it was a 1994 pistol) but its very accurate on the range. Was the Warthog made in FL or Canada?

    Beautiful Curl! What company did you get? (Bottom of frame...I got F Company which I was hoping for since I am a fan of "F Troop" :) ) The "Evil Roy" is on my WANT list too. Apparently a slicked up trigger too!

    What Rifles Do You Always Take To The Range With Your Handguns

    I'm in this category. Usually I try to team up calibers that are alike, but sometimes that doesn't work with my hunting rifles. The rifles/hand gun combination I used most in 2016 was the BPCR rifles (45-70 and 38-55) combined with my 1911 pistols of which I can get about 3 in the pistol range...

    New toy arrived: Cimarron Colt 1873 7th Cavalry

    Mini range report. 34 deg with a 45 mph wind blow sideways on the range. DANG it was cold! I used a standard one grip stance on both the 45 colt and S&W 357 magnum. I only had 20 rds of 45 colt with me, 10 shot. 1 shot (the first) I think I completely missed the target at 50 feet! Definitely not...

    .25 ACP roundup and range test

    Some nice 25ACPs in this thread. I adore them, they're sort of a curio piece to me. G.T. ours are close to the same age. This one pictured below turns 100 in the year 2019. It is pictured with the Baby Browning clone that Bauer used to make in stainless. This particular Bauer was unfired with...
