There is no substitute.

Hi.

Did I read it’s a .380?

Okay, I understand that Marines only need a K-bar to go into combat.

Maybe two now

5.56mm

I would be happy with a simple P226.

I have noticed a lot of used and refurbished Sigs on the market. Nearly all are in .40 caliber. Probably from Police Deprtments trading in their’s which were bought after the Miami shootout.

Everyone finally figured out that the 9mm didn’t really cause the fatalities.

From American to Italian to Austrian to German in just over a century.

Like I always say, the reason I carry a .45 is because I can’t carry a .46.

[oldplayer]

German? I don’t think so.

[Big Red Badger]

9mm is So
European,
.45 for work
.357 foreplay,
Get it?

[PA Engineer]

Yep. When you care to send the very best.

I'll stay with my 2 Kimber 1911 .45cal ACPs w/ 230gr HPs, and CT Laser-Grips.

[Big Red Badger]

I Kill Me,
LOL!

[yarddog]

Swiss/German but I am sure they will be made in New Hampshire.

They really should open a plant in Alabama.

[NormsRevenge]

Now this sounds like a one size fits all solution? do they have any other options besides those mentioned? Is the old 1911 gone for good finally? if I was the collecting type, it’d be nice to have one of each.

[Big Red Badger]

Twins!
Nice.

[Howie66]

It’s very cute.

I’ll stick with my 1911, though.

RAH!

[Pontiac]

I can’t believe the Special Ops boys are going to give up the M45A1.

I bet many now in possession of one don’t.

[Carriage Hill]

One is a 2009 Kimber® 1911 "Eclipse Target II™" .45cal ACP, and the other is a 2012 Kimber® 1911 Stainless "Custom TLE™ II" (Tactical Law Enforcement) .45cal ACP, and both use Wilson Combat Mags. Those are Galco FED212 Paddle Holsters. I have a 2 extra mag Galco Paddle Holster, just for grins.
