It's not bad. I would prefer an STI as a competition gun though.

I was going to suggest the Remington R1 but, it has 1911R1 stamped on the slide.

Found this description of the differences on another forum: Main things that the Mil spec has on the GI are ~ Lowered and flared ejection port Polished feed ramp Throated barrel Slightly taller and higher visibility 3 dot sights Beveled mag well And lastly, more looks that function, the slide serrations on the Mil spec are angled to match the grip angle rather than straight up and down on the GI.

The Springfield Mil Spec looks pretty good, price isn't too bad. http://www.budsgunsh...oducts_id/32592

Was just about to suggest them as well. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/411539079

Wow, I just checked. I didn't realize they went for over 1200. But, you did say best. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=315937901

How about a Colt 70 Series? http://www.coltsmfg.com/Catalog/ColtPistols/ColtSeries70.aspx

I just passed the 9 week mark, also in OB.

Welcome to the forum! The 10/22 is always a good choice. Lots of cheap fun.

Welcome

I thouught NICS was closed today?

This. Last video games I played were Space Invaders and Asteroids.

Yes, as I already stated.

The Glock and XD have an almost identical trigger safety. And again, which one has the best trigger is personal preference.

The XD/XDM have a trigger safety, much like the Glock. They also have the grip safety, much like the 1911 the OP is used to. Saying the Glock trigger is much better is very subjective. I personally feel that the Glock trigger is the worst of the bunch being suggested here.

Yamaha quality, tri fuel versatility. Don't have one yet, still researching myself. http://www.yamaha-propane-natural-gas-generators.com/

I don't believe Florida will accept Morphotrac. They do accept digital prints now but, I believe they must be taken at a Fla PD. You could always attend a NJ2AS meeting and have them do it.

FNP 45 would give you the most capacity(15) but has a safety or safety/decocker depending on model. XD/XDM are great guns, 13 rounds, no safety, decent trigger compared to Glock and M&P. BUT!!! My choice will always be a 1911!

Welcome!

Prints have to be done by law eforcement. Have you tried the EBPD?

Went at 6:30 this morning. Maybe I'll go again this afternoon...

Welcome to the forum!

I saw the plywood on the window this morning. I didn't even consider looters. I just figured something smashed the window during the storm. That's WAY TOO CLOSE for comfort.

Today alone I saw Ohio, Indiana, Pa, Fla, Maryland, and Georgia.
