Seemed pretty stupid to me,but since I'd heard of "single loading" Garrands and what not, apparently this isn't something unique.
You can't put a single round into a Garand clip. You can put a single round into an AR magazine

Probably going to get the spectrum of wear/condition like anything else, priced accordingly. I'll believe it when I see it. The RINOs derailed the 1911s to the CMP, so there's that.

I heard McCain was responsible for that. I can't even begin to understand why republicans would do that, only thing that comes to mind is they didn't want to give Obama the good press of doing something pro gun.

Can't wait for McCain to either die or get voted out of his seat. Fuking hate that man.

Okay? I am aware of how to single load an M1. They did this, and do this, because you can't just put a solo round into a Garand clip and load it that way.

You can put a single round into an AR magazine and load just one round that way.

Requiring a single round to be loaded through the ejection port instead of just putting one round into a magazine doesn't really make sense, what is the reasoning behind it? There would be a reason not to do it that way, that being, the extractor is designed to have the case slide up from underneath, it's not designed to slam over the case rim, so barring a good reason to hand load through the ejection port, good practice would be to use the mag

The store owner had some things that he did correctly, such as being armed, but his biggest –and deadliest– mistake was not keeping a round in the chamber.

Not having a round in the chamber cost him his life, and the life of his son.

In the video above, you can see the store owner handing over his wallet to the armed robbers. One tip to point out in this situation is to, if possible, throw the wallet away from you so that the bad guy can divert his or her attention to the thrown wallet instead of yourself. This, in many instances, can give you the advantage of drawing your firearm and firing that first shot.

Sometimes I roll with my hammer cocked on the p2000 for that extra adrenaline rush.

Also slide release crew after reload. Kum at meh.

You don't have to reload through the ejection port. You have the option of ejecting your mag, loading a single round into the mag, reinserting your mag, and chambering from the magazine, rather than loading through the ejection port. However, this requires you to reestablish your shooting position over and over and over again and takes more time to do, so all of the other shooters loaded through the ejection port. I did this at the 300 yd line, but for whatever reason, when I was doing my sighters at the 600 yd line, I kept having my round stick in the feed ramp in the manner I described, so I started loading from the magazine.

You gotta find pistols that work for you, VP9 is the same way for me but others (cough *glock* cough) I just can't shoot well. Can't shoot my walther PPS worth a damn and shooting it ruins my accuracy with other pistols when I go back to them, but the VP9 and fnx .45 and 1911 all work well together and I can shoot out the bullseye of targets all day at 10 yards with them.

just slapped some Trijicon HD's on the gluck 43 and took it out to the range. not sure if the TLR6 helped reduce the muzzle flip but the recoil wasnt bad. very shootable. i got some nice little groups once i slowed down a bit so i was overall very hapeeee

funny enough i ran into that same guy offering that trade there. told me the trade was still open and said he'd even toss in 500 rounds of 9mm since i added on the triicon HD's.

tempted even more now

Glock 43, 19 (both trijicon Hds, both have weapon lights) for a performance center MP9 and a shield (Truglos) along with 500 rds federal american eagle 9mm.

my mind says no
my heart says no
my dink says HNGGGGG

Do you have a Home Defense Pistol like a Glock 19 or HK VP9? Do you have a conceal carry pistol like a SW shield 9 or a Glock 43? Do you have a reputable AR15?
Do you have plenty of ammo for the mentioned weapons?


Basically if have all of that then I would say get one, they are sweet.

Reason to buy a TRP:
-You have all of your basic self defense weapons and ammo already
-You live behind enemy lines and don't get to enjoy 10+ capacity weapons
-You have a large collection and just enjoy buying all types of weapons
-You are just a 1911 fan due to the controls and your prior experience


If you're limited on budget I would pass until you have a 15+ rd 9mm hd pistol, a CCW single stack pistol, and a quality AR variant.

Not worth $1400 imo. I had one for a time, I bought it because it was lightly used and $900. I took it out once, and decided I didn't really care for 1911s, so I sold it.

I'm sure it's a good gun, just not my thing. And I wouldn't pay $1400 for one.

guy at the shop I got my 1911 p much convinced me it was not worth the price when compared to other Springfield 1911s in the 1000 dollar range because even tho it's better it isn't 3-400 dollars better. How ever I have heard all over the place that it's p much the best 1911 you can get under 1600 bucks. If I get another 1911 it will have a rail, probably the loaded operator even if the trp is available at that time.

Edit:. Would sig scorpion before trp but I'm also a sig fan

The Minutemen of Lexington are led by Capt John Parker, a 46 year old veteran of the French-Indian War; and a very sick man. He suffers from "consumption" (what we now call pulmonary tuberculosis) and will be dead in 6 months from that disease. But he answered the alarm that morning. He leaves his house at 1am and walks the two miles to the Green to lead his men. At about 4:30am his band of militia numbers maybe 50 men and the lead column of 250 redcoats are fast approaching the Green of Lexington. Capt. Parker orders his men to "Stand your ground! Do not fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have war, let it begin here!"

April 19, 1775
The Minutemen of Lexington are led by Capt John Parker, a 46 year old veteran of the French-Indian War; and a very sick man. He suffers from "consumption" (what we now call pulmonary tuberculosis) and will be dead in 6 months from that disease. But he answered the alarm that morning. He leaves his house at 1am and walks the two miles to the Green to lead his men. At about 4:30am his band of militia numbers maybe 50 men and the lead column of 250 redcoats are fast approaching the Green of Lexington. Capt. Parker orders his men to "Stand your ground! Do not fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have war, let it begin here!"

One of my favorite features of my new PC is that when a magazine is forcefully seated....the slide releases automatically. And holy shirt is it awesome when you're shooting fast
