I can't believe that this thread has faded away... We should all be ashamed There have to be some new 1911's out there, so let's see them.

Nice shootin HV!

The newest addition to the family. I can't wait for the first range trip tomorrow.

great looking bobtail AEA!

And some great movies there in the background HV. Deathproof is out of hand.

I put some new grips on the EMP, and the SIS needed a family photo.

There have been some fine looking 1911's posted today!

Picked up new 1911 to feed my addiction . I haven't fired it yet, but I did strip it down today for a good once over including a clean and lube.

It's a Rock River Pro Carry...

It sure is. I have several left over from the stack you gave when we met up to shoot over there. I use them sparingly because I really like them, and it's a long drive over there. It may sound weird but with some sights that's an easier target for me to focus on with the white center. I have some tagets with a black bullseye in the center and I don't shoot as well with them. Strange I know, and it shouldn't matter, but that's just the way it is.

That was at 15 feet with 185gr UMC, so it wasn't any great feat, but for me it was pretty good. Those grips with laser seem to bite a little more too. The laser is pretty useless IMO BTW.

Still breaking this one in, but it's looking good so far.

Here's my 5" carry rig. Springfield lightweight loaded in 2-tone with an XS tritium front sight, Yost/Bonitz rear sight, Wilson Combat fitted barrel bushing, Wilson Combat 30lpi checkered MSH with lanyard loop, Davidsons "Horned Lizard" grips, Milt Sparks holster, Gary Brommeland mag pouch and Wilson 47DBC (black armortuff coating and compact steel bases) loaded with Winchester Ranger RA45T ammo.

That is one sharp setup! Great looking grips.

You need to work on the grouping a little

I like it. I like it.

If my logon doesn't work later I'll know what to try.

That's a thought. Had I only known that I was going to become addicted to 1911's.


Hmmm. Those grips look familiar.

I just wanted to be like Rey .

Very nice collection, Scuba...is that an EMP that I spy in your photo? Assuming that it is, I'm curious about your range experiences with the weapon. I've become very intrigued by this "short action" 1911 design and have been kickin' around the thought of getting one.

It might be high-time for me to drink a little of JMB's Kool-aid if the EMP lives up to it's promise...

I am a huge fan of the EMP. It is very accurate for a 3" pistol. As much as I love my .45's I am much more accurate in rapid fire with the EMP. It had a few initial hiccups, but a quick trip back to Springfield, and over 2,500 rds later it is still perfect. I plan on purchasing another one as soon as I can find one. They are pretty scarce right now.
