Post by: TeamCORBON on July 02, 2012, 01:47:41 PM: I don't carry a 1911 every day, but on those special occasions, I will break one out and wear it for the day.

This is a custom SW SC1911 by the Performance Center at S&W. They did a superb job on the checkering of the scandium frame as well as the action job and refinshing the whiole gun. The magazines are loaded with 185 gr +P DPX ammunition.

Post by: Dakotaranger on July 02, 2012, 06:37:00 PM: Ignore the decorative Papa John's box. I don't have a fancy holster for it, but Nothing is classier than a stainless steel 1911 with marble grips. I might put my Gadsen grips on it for the Fourth though.

Post by: Dutch455 on July 05, 2012, 06:39:43 PM: My Bar-B-Q gun is an early Colt Government 1911 .45. It has been fully engraved, customized, accurized, and the grips have a cute Rampant Colt inlaid in ivory. It has had many thousands of rounds fired through it and it is very accurate. It is unlike any other 1911 I have ever seen. The belt, holster, double mag pouch and knife case were made for me by Walt Ostin of Cobble Hills, BC Canada. The rig is a replica of an outfit made by the Bohlin Company in Hollywood many years ago supposedly for John Wayne, for a movie about modern day Texas Rangers - that was never made. I would love to see the script - if there is one. The buckle set and the engraving on the Spyderco knife were crafted by Silverado Silversmiths in Apple Valley, CA.

Mate that is sweet.
Thats what mine was supposed to look like, the threaded barrel never turned up so I got the non threaded version. I still have the muzzle brake I brought in anticipation.
I ended up putting a small burris fastfire on mine and then took it off again, I remembered after putting it on why I hate them so much, they are a POS. I will put on my Hakko red dot instead now I have a rail fitted. I will post a pic again when done.
Yours pistol, she is a thing of beauty!

Ruger Vaquero in .357. The original series, not the newer lighter ones. I would like to have had Colts...but out of my price range. I bought one of them back during the "Bush" tax rebate...what around 2002? I have three boys and took the rebate and bought each a Ruger Vaquero so we could all have the "same" gun but tailored around what we wanted so far as stainless or blue, short or long barrel, etc. So..since we had that $400/child rebate I decided to stimulate the economy and added one for me. The other one came on father's day in a purse the wife bought....

One of them really shoots off a bit and I'd like for both to be slicked up.

Not that purty to look at, but it's seen more of the Tonto National Forest than most rabbits have.
