A flaw of the 1911 could be fatal 4 you.

[5shot]

I am in the process of writing/rewriting an article on the 1911.

It has been met with severe criticism in some quarters, but that does not change the facts of the matter.

Here is a link to it: http://www.pointshooting.com/1911.htm

Feel free to share it.

This should be interesting.....

Yet another reason the Russian Tokerev is a far better combat handgun.

But overall methinks this article is superficial, as I'm sure one can be trained around most design quirks in a weapon.

This guy has been banned on numerous gun forums for his troll type threads like this one and keeps going on and on, unfortunately he has found his way here.
His name is John Veit , here he is being warned and then BANNED at 10-8..................... http://www.10-8forums.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=68536&an=0&page=1#68536

Well I just pulled out and tried it with my Nork 1911 Commander, no matter how hard I pressed on the slide stop protusion it would not budge, I did mange to move it slightly by pressing almost directly inwards with my index finger and racked the slide back and forth, it wiggled the slide stop but did not cause it to slide out of the frame.

You make a video of this happening and post it here otherwise:

Myth busted


Now lets get back to proving pretty girls don't fart.

^ They do and it's aweful! My Colt GOV supports your conclusion

No one shoots like that anymore. Your article is pointless and amateur hour.

Meh, if he's close enough for me not to need sights, I'm pretty sure I could hit him without needing to point.

That method doesn't work so good with a revolver either. If anyone finds the tip of my finger, please let me know. Oww.

 

[Ripstop]

If you try to keep your index finger along side of the barrel on a revolver, you will more than likely lose that finger because of the side spit from in between the cylinder and barrel. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad.....

My goodness SPI, you type fast!

Just another post by a 1911 hater.

Slide stops occassionally come out at IPSC matches.

The fix takes 5 minutes with a file... file it down so it sits flush with the frame à la Springfield FBI Custom Pro model. Never had a problem with my IPSC gun, but then again never had a problem with my sti\ock Springfield where I haven't done the mod yet.

I guess you guys with blued models will have to take the extra step in re-blueing the filed off part. Still....

 

[grugnir]

Well, seeing as how I don't work the trigger with my Go Bleep Yourself Finger®, the whole damn thing makes no nevermind to me one way or the other...

I don't know about you guys but if I tried this in my Glocks it wouldn't be an issue...
