Which 1911 in the $1200 range
Smith has the external extractor right, unlike Kimber did. The Pro series is a nice gun. Dan Wesson makes a great 1911 also. I am liking the Sig too.

Bad Ammo Brands?
Sorry to hear about the PRVI. I use their rifle ammo and it is top notch ammo.

Opening day pheasant
It is for those reasons I stay hame till noon. I have encountered way too many idiots, some training future idiots. I had one dipshit father tell his 2 , first year in the field with a gun, kids to watch my dog and if a bird goes up to shoot it fast. He did not see me on the other side of the bush. I stepped out looked at him and called my dog back.

Opening day pheasant
What was everyones's experience yesterday? I was concerned with the Game Farm problems. I was in Assunpink around noon and while there were large pckets of hunters I did not see many shells on the ground (only 4) after 3 hours of walking. We saw 2 birds, both Hail Mary shots and the dogs worked a few areas pretty good but yeilded nothing. The few people I talked to had the same experience.

US Made metal 9mm?
A gun is a personal thing, I would worry less about its C of O and more about how it fits my hand. The CZ is a good gun to start with if it is comfortable.

Did anyone else get one of these today?
Ok, so if you go around it do you get points or time penalties?
-
Gloves to shoot?
For regular shooting I do not wear gloves. For Bird hunting I wear leather work gloves to keep the thorns out. When I had to use gloves for anything a simple pair of Nomex flight gloves worked well.

Oh that just killed it. Bad enough tight spaces but the front and rear will freak me out.

What is wrong with electric shock? That was my favorite part of PT last year.

Range 14
Everyone is shooting the guns that they have not shot since last hunting season. The best way to do 14 is to get there by 0800. I use to get there for 0730.

That looks like a lot of fun. I miss a good obstacle course. How wide are those tunnels you cawled through? The clostrophobic in me would not appreciate that.

Can you tell when you're rounds are too hot/compressed?
The bullets you are using should have a recommended OAL. If you load under that and at the top of the data then yes you will have over pressure rounds. It is ok to go under the OAL as long as you start at the bottom of the data. You will be able to tell by firing it if it is hotter than normal. Also get multiple load books because what is max in one book is only low middle in another. The differences in printed material will amaze you. DO NOT rely on primers as your ONLY indication of high pressure, they can fool you. The smaller the round the less powder it takes to screw it up.

New Acronym Proposal
I think you are harboring some confusing repressed feelings that you are uncomfortable with.

Rossi Lever Action
Rossi levers are great guns, far better than the revolvers they make. I prefer the Winchester 92 design but not the Winchester price. If you prefer old stuff, just wait till you shoot a Falling Block or a Trapdoor.

WTB a shotgun
A maverick 88 is a mossberg 500,same gun different trigger group. A used one from one of our vendors is always a great option. What do you want to use it for?
