Combat Auto

Thanks - can't wait it is due in a few weeks....Traditionalist indeed! -My four pistols are all 45 acp - best self defense round ever designed (357mag close second, 9mm is a "joke" ;-), 44mag and up harder tovcontrol, IMHO),..Sounds like you have a great Wilson..And agree, trigger pull/smothness is right up there with most important 2 or 3 items for excellent accuarcy (don't want to disturm that perfect sight alignment/picture).

I went for the Tactical Elite...Any opinions?

The main thing I do not like about ADT besides I cought them naping once - did not respond to a LIVE test i created, and the installer did a very crappy job configuring my system (an extra whole in the side of my house which they eventaully payed to fix, the delay settings are rediculous, etc.)...The main issue is: If a bad guy breaks in and smashes your box within 60 seconds - ADT headquarters will never know...This is an intrinsic design fault in their system....There is at least a 60 sec delay before the alarm is reported from your house to ADT headquarters...And there is no "I an OK" signal sent by the box under normal (non-alarmed) situations...So smash the main pannel to smitherines befor the alarm is reported and you are OK... This is whyI will get another vendor when my contract is up...Does anyone know a service vendor that can detect if the box is destroyed before the alarm signal is transported?

I have a Sig 1911 Tacops - very nice shooter - occaisonal FTF though (about 1/100 rounds - working o better mags)...Took 1000 rounds for the trigger to break-in (it was "crunchy" for a while) - but now it is supper smoth!. ~$1,000. I also have a Kimber Team match 2 1911 - awsome gun, a step above the sig but also ~50% more. ~1400$. I will be getting a Wilson 1911 in a few weeks ~3500$ - I expect this to be another step up from the kimber (which is already an awsome gun)...I know, wilson are very expensive - WTF, it is my $$$ and I'll spend it the way I want to (if you don't, Obama will take it, or some relative you don't like will spend it for you ;-)).

Also buy this video - read, watch, listen, do, learn - multinedia, best way to learn. http://www.amazon.com/Panteao-Productions-Ready-Travis-Haley/dp/B006K3KXEY/ref=pd_bxgy_sg_img_y

The world has gone mad - I would tell the owner to "Go "F" himself"

I'll try my best to get there!

Anyone familiar with Benelli MR1? Any good? I am thinking I may be able to get one sooner than an AR. Thanks, -Joe

To all of the above, our current situation in this country is sumed up as: "A bad case of Liberals/Socialists gone Wild" - extending well beyond Gun Control...Unfortunatly, I don't see any end in sight - right now Lib's have the "MO"...The Right needs to get much, much, more engaged - maybe the current attempts at the 2nd amendment will be a catalyst.

And I don't care If I ever shoot the AR (My M1A keeps me busy ;-)) - I am buying an AR just because Feinstein says I can't.

Republicans right now are a sad lot - Obama is running all over them with the fiscal crap....But, there is something more intrinsic in this country about right to hae guns...I think the right will hold - it is embeded much more in many other states outside the obvious liberal ones in the northeast (eg NJ - not sure what we have here the gun community dosn't seem that riled-up) and elsewhare...Obama is a very tough oponent - a street fighter (not much of that on the right) so if he backs Feinstein it will be tough - but I am encoureged that what happened in Illinoise today...So I am going to put my order in for a Wilson AR. Will take 8-10 months but will eventually get a NJ compliant one...And worst case Wilson will either deliver one with no pistol grip ;-), or need to give me my $250 deposite back,

Ditto on ADT - can't wait till my contract expires so I can get a better system (it is better than nothing though).

Agree - very surprised that there havn't been more folks contacting politicians (see the polls in the General Gun section) - very Bizzar!

Inspiring - we need to get outrages and offended by her bill - although his approch was much, much, more elequent than my letter (I used words such as "outrage" and "offended" which I am!) http://www.businessinsider.com/marine-joshua-boston-sen-feinstein-gun-control-legislation-california-cnn-ireport-2013-1

Agree, they Whore themselves with ultra-violent movies - and that is their business...But then when they want to tell me how to live, and be HYPOCRITICAL ta'boot - then it is my business... I am buying more guns and amo (if I can get them during this mad Gun-Rush) - just because the Socialists are trying to ban them...

The Socialist are lining up the Celeberties to come after us...Can't believe we don't have more of us contacting our Rep's (see poll numbers posts - not that many really)... Here are the Hypocritical Celebreties. http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/video-slams-hypocrite-celebrities-calling-gun-conrol-article-1.1231345

check out springfield XDs 45 - super small, 5 or 7 rounds...Awsome reviews - very accurate...Different platfoem entirely from px4...I have a PX4-45 full size. Nice Gun but I don't like the SA/DA per se...I prefer my 1911's SA only much better...The XDs feels very much like a SA only - awsome trigger...I gave it a try because Bereta didn't offer there real small gun in 45. I lucked out the XDs is quite a pocket pistol.

Looks like the CJR&P calander is missing 90% of the usual activities...Is the Steel and USPSA matches still on for sunday and the next respectively? -Joe

Go with Fort Knox - made in USA - safe is not something to skimp on...Got mine last month.

If the numbers in the TKOF don't convience you look at this video - but I am sure that will not do it either - Gun-Crew is generally very dedicated to the round they carry. -Again all in fun - beleive/shoot what you like of, course! Doing 45 hollow point vs 9 mm Hollow point - apples to apples. Note the diference how the 45 lifts and moves the Gel Cube significantly wheras the 9mm dosn't...Note also how huge the wound channel of the 45 is vs the smaller 9mm... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJKZO71mEns

Never seen this before but it makes alot of sence - from wikapedia - rather than use muzzel energy for comparison which focuses too much on velocity (ie sqaure of V), the Taylor KNockout Factor is Mass x Velocity x diamiter of bullet (divided by a constant)...This is what the serious Africana Big Game hunters use...You 9mm guys will not like it ;-) (all in fun please) but it shows the clear superiority of 45(12) over 9mm(7) (357 mag (11) is same as 45 effectively)as far as 1 shot stopping power..Also check out some of your other favorate rounds - look at the 44 mag (20!). I know, I know, your expert shooting is the most imporatnt thing, so no need to get into that debate again!!! ;-)...And I also agree shoot the most powerfull load you are "good at". But it is clear from the TKOF that all things equal, you have a statistical edge with the 45 over the 9mm (and a significant one at that). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_KO_Factor
