Re: First Firearm Thread.
Does not inspire confidence, would never carry a 1911 to defend my life...just my .02

I would contact Sig and see what they say. Just make sure you've done at least 500 rounds for the break-in period.

Re: First Firearm Thread.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
I've got the same Sig and have never had an issue. Ive sent a couple guns back to them with no questions asked, so a call to them might be worth it

I have to disagree Mike. I carry one. The 1911 was the standard US issue sidearm for all branches of the military for over 70 years. The testing done on it before it was adopted was substantial. I love the narrow frame due to the single-stack design. It makes carry a lot more comfy than many modern double-stack mag designs IMO. Plus modern reworking of the original 7 round mag gets you an 8 round mag, +1 in the chamber nets 9 rounds of .45 ACP. Plus, they feel so natural in my hand. I'm a huge 1911 fan.

I do love the way the 1911 shoots, too big for me to conceal (chubby kid + slim jeans) but i have the HK for that anyway

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Finally got all the gear I ordered for my HK in today I now have 3 options for magazines, the standard 10 round with finger extension, a 10 round with a flat baseplate, and a 13 round USP-C mag with the Xgrip adapter. The light is a TLR-3, and the custom Kydex rig is from Zero Concealment. They advertise a 30 day wait, mine was about half that. Not too many holster places with decent wait times have the mold for the P2000SK, especially ones with the option of a bunch of prints and colors. I wanted something a little different since this will be my main CCW weapon.

Anywho, what matters is that you're comfortable with what you carry and proficient with it. Wish we could do more shoot-n-herfs. I try to get one together every year since there's a free range on state land near me. However, it's tough to get people to make the drive as I'm somewhat out in the sticks. Here's a shot of a couple inmates at said range

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Our pal elderboy02 did such an event last year, and is planning another in the summer. He sent me a Facebook invite thingy on it, guess he won't mind me mentioning it here.

This may have already been posted here, but I'm an irregular in this thread, so there it is, possibly again:
