1911 Show-N-Tell

[SW.Ecks]

I love your S&W and your GSG, those are my two new favorite pics in this thread

[EDIT]: And if you're ever in LaPorte County, I'd love to see your GSG in action, I've been wanting one for awhile now.

My First 1911... Kimber Stainless Pro TLE/RL II

Got this last night... I can't wait to get to the range and take it for a spin.

 

[DarkRose]

New-to-me GSG M1911, just got it today!

 

[cbhausen]

C'mon y'all... post 'em up! I can't get enough 1911 pics.

 

[ultraspec]

Thats the next one I would like to have. I just have to satisfy my dan wesson fix first

 

[CandRFan]

New-to-me GSG M1911, just got it today!

Yeah, that's a nice looking 1911 AND it's gotta' be a fun plinker. All that adds up to my having to get one for myself.

 

[Monster Man]

I have a few , but this one was Dad's

This is my favorite gun......I have the letter my dad wrote to my mother in April 1945 from "somewhere in Germany" in which he described making the grips from the side window of a downed airplane.

Got it from a fellow INGO'er with a low 200 or so round count on it, was hoping to grab some ammo and shoot Wednesday, but forgot a doc appointment and had a surprise prescription (an expensive one) come up, so kind of in a holding pattern at the moment...

I hate it when life pops up and ruins plinking plans! The good thing is that the pistol will be there and ready when the finances settle.

That is so cool and quite the family heirloom! Do you happen to have any more pics? That is one handsome 1911.

I too am curious as to if you have any more pics of this 45. It looks really nice and as CandRFan said a great family heirloom! Just wondering is this a Colt, Remington Rand, Ithaca, or a Union Switch & Signal?

Monster Man,

That 1911A1 you have there is what it is ALL ABOUT!!!! I hope it serves you well and that you pass it on to the next generation!

Also curious who made it.

My Newest Addition

My First Wilson

Wilson Combat Tactical Supergrade Professional

 

[9mmJV]

When my 401(k) recoupes, I will buy 1/10th of the collection you have - if it ever recovers.

A small sampling of my original (Seattle) Detonics Combat Masters.

Of the the first 250 made, LN/99.5% condition (possibly unfired?)

Un-catalogued factory made custom gun for a Detonics executive, no slide engravings, no model marks. This gun is a cross between a MK V and a MK VI, so I guess its a MK V.V

Mark IV:

Rare 9mm version (less than 350 total guns were made in 9mm) this is a top of the line MK VI

Rare 9mm version of the MK V

45acp version of the MK VI

45acp version of the MC

very rare 38 Super version of the MC (less than 250 made of all versions)
