A .45 Colt for my 45th B-day

[Armored Metal]

A Pietta 4 3/4" in .45 Colt that my wonderful wife gave me on my 45th birthday.




The gun is a wonderful shooter and hits point of aim with Winchester 255grains.

LOL...the former. Like the OP I am very lucky in the wife dept. Christmas this year was a STI Trojan 1911.

 

[Armored Metal]

Thanks for the good wishes guys

 

[JR Hartman]

very nice! I was in that place last year. I decided to go .45acp tho, and got a nice 1911.

Happy 45th! I've been shooting a pair of Pietta .357's with .38Spl ammo for almost 7 years now. They have been great guns to own.


Now for your next one be sure to get a reloading setup. It's a LOT cheaper to reload that stuff than to buy factory ammo.

Right you are!
I've been reloading for two years and would not have considered getting a .45 colt at the price of factory ammo. I have two young kids and the budget is tight so rolling my own is the only option.
