Re: Well.... Color Me Stupid
Just a quick off the top example. Another would be my HK which decocks if you push the lever down, not what I would want to happen.

Re: Well.... Color Me Stupid
I have multiple pistols (arsenal, cache, etc in lib speak) but I only carry 1911's. You need to just practice and get used to your pistols. Without knowing what you have I cant speak to whether or not the longer mag will work but if it locked in it might. If the longer mag works then only carry long mags as spares. I carry only fullsize mags as spares for my 1911 even though I carry both a fullsize and a 3" 1911. The longer fullsize mags work in the compacts, they just stick out. If I need another mag inserted then that little bit sticking out is the least of my worries. Dont feel stupid, everyone has to learn sometime. Learning multiple manual of arms is not a wise idea IMO as you dont need to try to remember what you have as it is being drawn. For example, flipping a Beretta 92 up is for fire but will lock a 1911, not good in a defensive situation.
