thanks guys well i popped the question in the temple of dendur at the metropolitan museum of art. The met was one of our first dates and i picked that specific exhibit because it just feels incredible there. Afterwords we were headed to a cute italian restaurant nearby that we went and I had our parents and her sisters there as another surprise. So we all celebrated and downed alot of champagne. As a side note i am never buying bottles of champagne in NYC again! oh the guns i could have owned now.

To follow up on chris' post about the GSG, no jams and the paint does not wear rub off upon cleaning. i've posted before about the gsg and i couldnt be happier with it ( i also found it for around 280, 325 after shipping and transfer).

YES i guess my life is over

Yea its the staked in kind. Question: can a gunsmith change the style? Or would i have to order a new slide that has the dove tail cuts?

I have a SA 1911 Mill Spec .45, with a standard 3 dot sight. If I wanted to change the sights to Trijcon night sights, I dont think i can do this myself.. How much should i expect to pay a gunsmith to do this?

obviously its not fully developed yet..but it all has to start somewhere. Imagine if we dropped the cellphone idea because at first they were too big and clunky. Plus..i'm pretty sure the military is thinking.. if we can reduce the weight by 50%, we can double the amount of ammo they carry. Lol now that is lethality.

KEWL 8-)

well u can go to the rutgers gun and boat center, but its not really a nice place. They have a small selection on hand but can order anything. A nice old man runs the place but when I say old i mean it. When you walk in you'll feel like you are back in the 50's there. Their transfer fees are high so i dont use them for that..but if you really have to have something ordered locally you can always go to them. They are in highland park right off rt27

i'm all for putting the criminals down...think about it.. Very cost effective...no jailtime, no court costs.

anybody know where i can get the threaded adapter for the barrell?

why must we help everyone? What is this american obsession we have??? help everyone and be loved by everyone.. meanwhile the rest of the world tries to ram a 12" foot dildo in our *** with a bulldozer. They're stuck?? Tough luck, maybe daddy shouldnt have pissed uncle sam off.

maybe i deserve to be in hell..but i pictured his family tied up stareing into a camera and getting their heads cut off by a bunch of red necks with bandanas covering their face....stream that live in the arab world so they know how it feels. And instead of hearing "god is great" while this is happening we can scream yeeehaw like a bunch of cowboys.

:shock: It's an EMOTIONAL thought process. If that escapes you, you are dead. There is no help for you. Do not attempt to apply logic to emotion. The end result is either an argument or tears. Either way, you don't "win". Emotions are both irrational and illogical... especially when applied to a thought or decision process. Its highly illogical..but you can always try this

reading this makes me feel alot better.i'm poppin the question on saturday to a girl that takes interest in my hobbies AND understands that i need to do things on my own.

Well i cleaned the crap out of the mosin and went shooting on saturday.. the sticky bolt went away, the extraction problem did not.. I will take your advice and work on the extractor.

incase you guys really want one this place has some but its 330: http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=F1ATGSG1911&groupid=3

wtf?

Well earlier today they sold for 274, iknow this because that buddy i mentioned earlier in the thread was able to order it. I think you need to check that site frequently as they change prices and run specials. I saw the Chiappa 22 at one point today for 225

Check that link..price is back down and even lower ! $274!!

yea i saw that...i guess i lucked out. My buddy got his permit the day the prices went up and is pissed! i paid 283.20 plus 19.99 shipping, plus nics and transfer.

Thing about the grips is make sure they are planed for an ambidextrous saftey. My spare set of grips from the Springfield 1911 did not fit, but the rose wood ones did so I put those one the GSG. I prefer those wood grips over the gsg standard issue.

Let me tell you guys... I LOVE THIS GUN!!!! I had a few feeding problems, no ejection or fire failures. I was shooting CCI 40 grain lead round nose standard velocity .22lr and had 6 feeding problems in 100 rounds. I also shot 50 Federal 36 grain high velocity hollow points that had 2 feeding failures our of 50. The accuracy was pretty good i feel ( i admit i'm a lousy pistol shot), but i had more fun shooting this than my .45 1911

haha sure you can request..but ur not gonna get any! Camera phone is all i have time for right now..you gotta understand i'll be dropping to one knee in a week, just got the ring and am busy planning. Very hectic time right now.

just added the GSG-1911
