Anybody here remember the Branch Davidians in Waco, TX. Just saying. And to keep things on topic, I LOVE my Kel-Tec KSG. it was well worth the wait. With the EOtech attached, MrsDonkeys is happy that there is a miniature 12ga to snuggle with. Sent from the voices in my head and transcribed by their drinking buddy...
Must be something wrong with my 1911 Kimber.45. It just keeps on working! Don't even clean it that often.
Only because you lube it with synthetic products. Dino sucks. I dare anyone to say otherwise... I usually like to use Mobil 1 on my guns, my friend says 10-30, but he lives where its cold and has a high round count. I live where its hot, so I say 20-50. What say you KLR guys?
My first instinct would be to say 15w40 HDEO, as it is what I run in the KLR. Being in the south, I gave 15w50 M1 a try and it seems good. Applied with an eye dropper.
All of it. Look, we get it. You like Glocks and hate 1911. That's fine, just don't make up load of crap/lies and then give it weight by listing your credentials. There are 10s of millions of 1911s out there and if they were as finicky as you make them out to be, they wouldn't still be on backorder after hitting the market over 100 years ago. Is the 1911 the best gun? Of course not. I personally think most people who want to carry would be better served with something else, but not for any of the reasons you list. Eric
how about some pictures. This has gotten stale. I'd really rather the political stuff over the Glock war.
We should get back to pictures but it does rather remind me of oil or Harley vs. anything else threads...in a rather amusing way mind, but still. For many people, the iconic nature of the 1911 is part of it's appeal. No big deal.
For 1911 lovers: Found this a couple of years ago. 1918 production and serviced at Agusta Arsenal between wars. Unfired since then. This was a DCM purchase, and I have the invoice showing it was sold for $17.00.
Wrong on that. My oldest and favorite pistol is a SA 1911 that I built into a show piece. All of the race guns I built are from 2011 frames.
