  • Yeah, I have a couple years worth of Ed Brown catalogs in the "reading room" for inspiration.

    Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to improve my odds of winning.



    Not as fancy but the lightweight version of Ed Brown's Kobra Carry is at the top of my "when we win the lottery" list.
    It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.

    • Yeah, I could go for that, TucsonMTB! The light weight and the bob tail make that a very carriable 1911.
      Very interesting...

            That notch in the rail is supposed to be there

            "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
            --Thomas Jefferson (1764).

                  Very nice, you certainly have good taste in regards to the 1911.

                  45Shooter,
                  That Titan in the foreground is a nice looking gun.

                  Thanks for sharing

                  • Thanks.

                    Just doing our part to support the craft of fine pistolsmithing.

                    Besides, as much as I like my practical Kahr's and Sig's, there's something about a fine 1911 . . .

                      • I have totally enjoyed looking at all the beautiful 1911 pix. I recently purchased my first 1911, a Metro Arms American Classic II Commander. Put on some Double Diamond Cocobolo Slim Grips for easier grip control for me. I see more 1911's in my future for sure. Here is my new 1911.

                            All I've done so far is change the grips, extended slide lock & thumb safety were standard. I think I'm going to really enjoy the 1911 platform. My first venture into the 1911's, and this will be an enjoyable experience.
