A throw-down gun for raccoons?
Thatโs just too much.

Been on this forum for years and somehow never found my way to this thread! Here's a few of my favorites.
Really like this Commander, did Armand Swenson build it? Sure looks like one of his. None the less beautiful.

You have a good eye. Yes, it's a Swenson build. It belonged to my grandfather, then my dad, and now me.

Your grandfather had very good taste. Beautiful 1911, I am very jealous to say the least. ๐๐

My most recent from a few months ago. I believe Dan Wesson's are a bargain, particularly used ones like this one.

You saw it a few weeks ago when I posted a thread about getting the slide milled but what the heck, it's the nicest 1911 I've ever owned and probably the most accurate pistol in my safe.

Your's is definitely a more modern build. Any idea who did the work?

That's very nice! I have a SS Executive Carry, no RDS cut though.

It was cold and blowing here yesterday.
The Baer seemed appropriate.

A nice looking pistol is pleasant t own but I never found a place on the scorecard for prettiness. If it won't shoot a 10 shot group in less than 3" at 50 yards, I have no use of it. Shot this in rapid fire competition rapid fire stage, 25 yards. Phil

Considering that it is a Baer that came with a guarantee and a target showing that it shoots 1.5" groups at 50 yards, I think I am safe. That is why I bought a 1.5" P2 model. It has the looks and performance all in one.
