My New 1911!

(1/3) > >>

SeanN:
Finally bought one, couldn't resist any longer! Hehe. It's a used Smith&Wesson 1911PD with Crimson Trace laser sight grips. They came with the gun. I got it from Guns Unlimited this weekend. It's light, 4.25" barrel, titanium receiver, and it feels great in my hands. Just like most 1911's, the trigger pull is smooth, short, and just all around amazing.

The only gripe I had with the whole thing is that the previous owner had allowed a lot of copper (or some other material, I'm not sure which) stay in the barrel for a long time and I had a helluva time getting it out. Even with foaming bore cleaner, mountains of Breakfree CLP, a brass .45 brush, and about 50 patches it was still there! Thankfully, when I shot it today, I immediately got home and cleaned it out and the shooting had apparently gotten out the small amount that I hadn't been able to!  ::) Hell, I won't complain though!

Obligatory Pics! The target was at around 10 yards... The lack of accuracy on some of the shots was entirely *MY* fault, not the gun's.... I have a long way to go as far as becoming a pistol marksman! I'll keep working on it though :P

SeanN:
So, I can't get my pictures to work at all... What the heck.

Dan W:
Try it again...there was a setting on the forum preventing larger images that has been corrected

SeanN:
There we go, I resized them to make them a bit smaller. :D

Dan W:
Have you tried to feed it any hollowpoints yet?
