Hey, it's not me that's telling people to #### off. In fact, I'm amused by the twist this thread has taken, just taking periodic breaks from practicing my "clip" changing in preparation for our weekly IPSC practice this evening, shooting one of my antediluvian 1911's.
So I gotta ask ... Why so many 1911s??

Lol, I have!
And I totally agree regarding your giant hovering douchecopter-ness!
(But I was described as a think-for-yourselfer. Free tip: being weak-minded and easily malleable is rewarded in the military, but it's generally not regarded as a positive in the real world.)
LOL did someone #### in your serial this morning?
Let me ask you something, if your precious Glock was made by 500 different manufacturers, would you be able to take parts from one and swap to another? (before you try, here a hint - this is rhetorical)
As per needing to be tuned out of the box, yep it does for my purposes - but for tacticool kids like you I am sure its still an exponential improvement
You can espouse all that 'striker guns are less forgiving and require a better shooter' BS all you want but we both know how many of these turds make it to the top 10 in USPSA or IPSC. Just out of curiosity, which design dominates here? (again this is rhetorical)
I can see you talk the talk, but can you also walk? Do you actually compete? If so how far up the list are you after how long?
And if not, lets see you get off the forum and your fat arse and see how far you get with your precious
umm nop i'm gonna call it clip from now on cuz i can see how it burns you so
2011s are doublestack, so 45 will hold 10 as well in Canada. once you cross the border as some do for USPSA matches, you get to take the pin out on 9/38 and load up 29
Are you going to answer my question or avoid the obvious answer? I don't care if you take two 1911's of the same make and model, I can almost guarantee you can't swap parts without effecting reliability. As for your other question about multiple manufacturers of Glocks, well its pretty well that case right now. The M&P, XD, Steyr(whatever they call it), SR9 are all pretty well Glocks under a different name, and they're all sh*t with the M&P being the closest thing to the real deal.
As for Glocks and the IPSC/USPSA circuit, I don't care about gaming. Glocks are service guns, designed for defense of life, that is shooting other people. Accuracy needs to be effective for the intended role, and they're more than capable of the task. Running around ignoring the use of cover while wearing a flimsy holster and magazines displaced from the body is not realistic. Its gaming, its entertaining and still fun(shooting is always fun), but its not an accurate barometer for determining what is and is not a solid service pistol.
I couldn't agree more. Lack of subject knowledge speaks volumes about the individual.
Your example is complete fiction. No one sells magazines of any sort door to door.

My wife is the SR9 shooter, just taking her Black Badge course last week end. I could consider an SR45 if and when they come available. I like the ergonomics and ambi controls out-of-the-box.
What army did you serve in? Sure wasn't Canadian Regular Army. "A think-for-yourselfer", huh? In military parlance, that means piss poor soldier that doesn't understand discipline and is incapable of following orders. In short, a discipline problem.
REAL soldiers are taught to "think for themselves" with regard to fulfilling the mission - it's called "adapt and overcome". Once you cross the start line, your battle plan has already shifted to plan "B".
But, having served in the military, you already knew that, right ... ;>)

Sure was! You write like someone who just joined the reserves after watching a few episodes of "Truth, Duty, Propaganda". When you get to see it a bit better, you'll realize what a joke the "adapt and overcome" thing is!
REAL soldier, eh? Don't make me laugh.

1- yes
2- so are you now telling me i can swap parts from my M&P 9 into a 17? Ow and M&P is an improvement, not a close copy
3- grapes are sour eh? of course its gaming cuz it rewards speed and accuracy over silly ritualistic 'techniques'. shooting a random stage under stress of time accurately enough to 'pacify' a paper target is of course not an accurate barometer of anything, nor is 10-20k rounds an average IPSC/USPSA gun fires every season... especially not of how much abuse a rig will take. i would say get off your ass and try it but i have a feeling you at some point did and wisely chose to save your ego the pain and decided to stay away
hiding behind other people's quotes is thing for you eh? btw i don't know who cooper is and i don't care, there are a ton of has-beens in every walk of life that get bitter when the world passes them by.
as per your sword fighting remark, umm yeah were not shooting blanks just so you know. i can see people having issues with open guns but since you like analogies, open guns/division in dynamic shooting is what F1 is to auto racing. that being said, there are other divisions like production, classic and standard which can be equated to (running with the analogy) amatuer lapping events and street racing
btw having seen your earlier posts about IPSC and arguement with a BB coordinator - quite acting like you know what your are talking about
PS: you fail at even quoting which is specially sad since this argument seems to be the highlight of your day lol
thanks for the laugh.
Wow. I think we're all about done here since this thread got so derailed.
