Yeah, but its too bad our fingers are controlled by the human brain :)

But if you always treat a firearm like it is loaded (and I mean Always) the risk is minimized, but your correct in that there is no 100% with the human brain.
My 13 year old twins shoot and clean firearms with me all the time, I have trained them since they were 8 to check and double check a weapon. If I hand them a gun without looking in the chamber they will hand it back to me to check, then I hand it to them and they check again. Sometimes we will do dry fire exersizes at which point all live ammo is locked down and only dummy rounds are at hand. And we have a safe area to point the firearm when squezeing the trigger (but that is an intentional trigger pull).

Get the mags and some sights. T.R. Graham is at the gunshows and can install the sights. Don't try to make it a 1911 by loading it down with aftermarket parts.

I was really only looking to replace the Guide rods with stainless right now as I shoot allot and I heard the plastic ones wear.

Ture or false? I heard this from a somewhat credible source.

Funny you say that, I have two dogs that are chunky, Black and verry good at their job. Walk in my house with bad intentions you may meet 2 70 pound (Glogs,,,Glock Dogs ) before the real Glock is even out of bed.

I Don't want anyone to think I have sworn off 1911's I will continue to have them in my gun safe, but let me just say that in my holster on my hip sits a G-17.

For years I have been a 1911 nut, I like to think I Know everything about them mechanically and technologically.
A month ago I went shooting with a friend who brought a G-17 and I had the priviledge of putting 50 rounds or so down range. Well a month later I own 2 G-17's one for me and one for my wife(she retired her Taurus after shooting it).

The main reason for bringing this up is I have been less than a proponet of Glock pistols to this point (I was taught buy someone in the past who did not like them and that stuck with me).

Well I am posting a sincere apology to all Glock owners out there for all the uneducated, unexpierenced words I have ever uttered about the weapon.

And to say I am a newly added lover of Glocks. working on my third one now, a G21C.

Bullet Trap only has Mag and grip accessories
