twong11219 0 Posted February 14, 2014 Green Lantern called. He wants his gun back. Lol! That's sweet! Definite conversation piece. Is that how the green looks in real life? Pearlescent? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OfcrFek 21 Posted March 6, 2014 Brought home my first 1911 today. Sig Tac Ops. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Combat Auto 174 Posted March 6, 2014 Brought home my first 1911 today. Sig Tac Ops. Congratulations. I have the exact same model - it was my first 1911, and a fine weopon at the price point. Just an FYI, on breakin. When I first got it it had some feeding failures - but not abnormal during breakin. They went away after 500 rounds or so. Also, when I first got it, the trigger was horribly gritty, now it has one of the best triggers of my 6 1911s. Again, this is not abnormal how a 1911 trigger might break-in. Of course this was sample of one, your Tacops may have a diffierent breakin experience. Congratulations, the 1911 is still just about the most acurate semi out there (all other things equal ;-))... PS, best to shoot FMJ/Ball for 1st 500 rounds as part of the breakin to give the feed-ramp a good polish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted March 6, 2014 with your exquisite 1911 collection, i could probably sit there and throw back a few and just STARE at it for hours(in complete silence), but then that would be weird...

I'll probably go get some bulk .45ACP FMJ ammo for the break in period. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
