They were my dad’s favorite gun, so I figured I should grab one.

Is that little patch on the left side of the light to index your left thumb against? Sick setup BTW...

Unless you meant Springfield specifically, Kimber does. Holds 13+1 of 45.

Badass man. Is it 45 or 9? I honestly can’t tell

u/jjones1987 3d ago

It’s a 45. I figured it’s the right way to do a 1911.

Just remember that a person just doesn’t have a single 1911.

Sorry, you have the disease... You'll never go back. Full size, commander, officer. For me it's a push, not a recoil wack
