    If Winchester deal falls through I`d like a shot at it. We could meet FTF like last time. I bought your Colt SAA last year. Bill

    SPF..American Western Arms Peacekeeper .45 Colt 5.5" Nickel

    If no other issues other than hammer flaking, I`m interested. I can have that renickeled locally. How about $375.00 shipped? Bill [email protected]

    WTT/S Colt SAA 44 special and S&W 396 night guard.

    Is the Colt a 4 3/4" bbl and does it have a removable cylinder bushing? Thanks. Bill

    I`m hooked. Can`t go to a show without bringing an orphan home...

    Advice on birdshead grip vs standard on 45LC Vaquero.

    I just bought a stainless birdshead 45LC Vaquero in 4 3/4 bbl at the last OGCA show for less than $400 LNIB. The guy said he didn`t like the grip once he got it home so decided to sell. I was amazed it was still there. I have several birdshead gripped SAA revolvers but still like the standard...

    45 Colt 100 yard performance.

    I agree with the above post. I never rest the butt of the revolver. Seems to imput deflection under recoil. Try it with a sandbag under the barrel only. I`d be interested to know the results as your test rounds using 2400 should do very well if loaded properly. They always are tack drivers in my...

    The issue I`m seeing is used guns in the present marketplace don`t lose much value...

    REVHIGH's 1911 Challenge

    I`m also wondering how 4.3g of 231 can function without a reduced recoil spring. I have found that 200SWC/4.5g is absolute magic for accuracy but less than reliable in my target 1911 platforms without running the lightest Wolf spring I have. The only guns I had that would run on less than 5.0g...

    Ruger 1911s at normal prices

    I paid $700+tax for mine and I have no regrets as I`m not reselling it and have been able to enjoy it having bought early. We`ve all paid more for some of our firearms from time to time due to availability issues I`m sure. $50 to $100 extra isn`t going to break me. Look what guys paid for ammo...

    series 70?

    How about 1911 based and leave it at that. The different makers and models are all variations on the 1911 platform. Too many to decipher now that everyone has climbed on the bandwagon. For Colt manufactured pistols there are: 1911 1911A1 series 70 series 80 series 90 (Double Eagle model)

    NEW SR1911

    It`s all good now. As stated above, I massaged the extractor and now have a couple of hundred rounds thru it without stoppage. The Commander model I have never exhibited the issue over a couple of boxes fired. I`ve been shooting a Colt slide/Essex framed 5" custom gun (Kings Gun Works) for...

    NEW SR1911

    The problem is apparently solved. I took the extractor out again and smoothed the edges with emery cloth and reinstalled. I decided to not change the spring before I gave it another chance. It did the same thing again but on the second round of the third magazine so I ran a full box of 230RN...
