I find that Hobbes oil works good in all weather...

My favorite semi-auto is the standard issue 1911A Springfield. 3-inch groups at 35 yards right out of the box (practice). I also like the Browning Hi-Power 9mm. I guess I'm just old-fashioned...

Revolvers are actually better for target acquisition. I love the Anaconda with the 5-inch barrel. I would like to find a quality .45 single/double action revolver, any ideas?

For double action and competitive shooting it's hard to beat the Smith 625 in .45ACP using moonclips. For Single action, unless you've got big bucks, check out the new Ruger Vaquero which has recently been downsized closer to the scale of the original Colt SAA, it is available in 45 Colt.

Quality single/double action in .45 Colt is this year's mountain gun from S&W. I think a couple years ago they did it in .45 ACP.
