Sig226 came up with this great idea on one of the numerous 1911 threads last week. I volunteered for a day as have Shooter, Sig, and DaveLoneRanger. We could use a few more contributors and even if you would just like to participate we can always use the noticability.

Please FReepmail me to be added to the FRGC PING LIST.

Enjoy. Share. Add.

Here are just some of my favorites. I will add more pics as the day goes on.

Just as an addition. I work in the largest gun shop in New Mexico on Saturdays. I get to handle new and old firearms of every type. There are no prejudices as far as firearms go. Each has a niche for price, utility or budget. Our goal with the FRGC is to have fun, share experiences, educate, and above all keep our 2nd Amendment hobby alive.

As for the Taurus 1911, we have sold a BUNCH of these. Well made, fairly accurate and reliable, we have not heard one complaint about these clones. They have a lot of features you will see on the more expensive Kimbers for about half the price. Good value.

Except the Taurus not only changed the dimensions on the screws, they’re metric.

Those bastards. LOL

Actually, I like the larger heads on the screws. Too bad I’m not about to chop into those lovely grips I have.

Have you handled either a Remington 798 or Browning-produced Winchester 70 in both stainless and .375 H&H? Any comments on the quality or lack thereof? Can either handle 4 down?
