lunker 274 Posted January 1, 2012 I like the Chip McCormick Power mags in my Colt. They always feed well. If you ever go shooting at Shore Shot, let me know and I'll let you give them a try. http://www.cmcmags.com/Powermags.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zoid 24 Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks, will let you know when we head that way. Are the followers metal or plastic? Thanks TheWombat Followers are metal. Some people like the plastic ones that keep the unit steady and don't allow any tilting. However, I've found it really doesn't matter if the follower can tilt because when you load ammo it straightens it out anyways. The only time when this matters is if you do reload practice drills and the follower tilts forward on the way into the mag well. But that would never happen in competition since you never load an empty mag. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks, will let you know when we head that way. Are the followers metal or plastic? Thanks TheWombat what zoid said as well. BTW, have you tried Colt or Mec-Gar mags in her? A friend here has one and it didn't like either of those magazines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1911NUT 0 Posted January 4, 2012 That Ed Brown is one good looking pistol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWombat 67 Posted January 5, 2012 haven't tried colt or mecgar. the Trip magazines seem to work fine so for now will stick with them since I have sufficient magazines for now. TheWombat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tony357 386 Posted January 7, 2012 Another nice pistol.. only thing i see that i do not like is how the slide does not match up with the barrell bushing.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWombat 67 Posted August 10, 2012 I've just added some VZ Operator II grips. I found the original EB grips to not provide me enough grip. The Operator IIs have a LOT more bite. I may see how it feels to shoot if I get to RTSP this weekend. :-) TheWombat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted August 10, 2012 What were the original grips? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWombat 67 Posted August 10, 2012 What were the original grips? Unsure - there are no specific markings on them. The EB website just states: "Slim wood grips for a thinner width." They comprise small diamonds. Probably work fine for many people, however I find I prefer grippier grips. TheWombat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
