Nice. I have a 1948 M44 and I love it! Very simple to use, but straight to the point!

I think I would head straight for him, using the lone pine as cover. Once I reached the pine, I would evaluate the distance and determine if it would be a comfortable shoot. I wouldn't want to chance a wild shot on such a magnificent animal and risk wounding him. It would have to be a well...

Yeah, no doubt...I do like the flat butt, it feels very conductive to my favorite 2 handed stance. Will try it out once it warms up a little!

I've seen wounds like that from laying your digits too close to the chamber when firing! Gases expelled from the sides will tear you up if your not careful with finger placement.

Presentations arrived and WOW! They are a handful! I love them!! I'll have to get some nice, new pics as soon as I can... 8)

PT1911 is a good gun! PM Sent!

LOL, I know...I do want the Houge grips...I've had that Houge sleeve on it since before the grips were available. Someday I'll get them! Right now, it still fits my hand like a natural extension, so it isn't too bad.

Thanks! I was working on some gun review content, but kinda got derailed with other projects! :roll:

Are the Pachmayr presentations larger than the factory wood? If so, I may pick up a set until I can afford some Houge fancy wood.

Well, good to hear about the barrel separation...this thing looks too well built to just fall apart, LOL. I think I will hold off on a scope, however...I do want to get a new set of stocks! I am just not happy with either style that came with it. So far, I like the looks of Houge's over sized...

My folks gave me a beautiful, mint condition Redhawk in .44 mag for Christmas! It has the 7.5 barrel and manufacture date is 1982. I do have a few questions...firstly, is there any concerns about this pistol? I have heard about the barrel lug separating from the frame. My gun clearly has...
