According to how deep the hole is...............

No need for confusion my son.

MM

Travis definitely needs the biggest rod around.

How the [bleep] would you know? The closest thing you can find to a Colt, is a [bleep] Ruger.



Travis

Should I use aalf's huge rod?



Travis

Not sure how to answer that.......

I run 'em in everything, and I don't see a/the downside.

As far as take down, what's the big deal?

I really don't like them & don't think they really bring any benefit to the party, but if'n you're gonna use 'em, it's way easier on the fingers for take-down if you take some scotchbrite pad & really round & smooth up the edges of the hole in the plug.

MM

I'll stay with the 1911 in .45 Auto.

Yep. The .45 is just perfect in the 1911. I like my Supers too. I think the new Delta's are much improved over the one I had back about 1989 but I'd still rather have a 1006 for that cartridge.

The 40's is the new 45's.



Travis

I like the 40 alright & think it's a nice round & wouldn't object to having one in a 1911; not gonna replace my 45's though.

Absolutely no use whatsoever for the 10mm in a 1911 platform though.

MM

Don't be hatin'...

But in all the sincerity I can muster, an M&P in a .40 SW is quickly becoming the greatest sidearm ever built.

I'm not gonna say it yet, but in case I do, I said it first.

GFY.


Travis

Whoa, easy there Big Fella.........I didn't deserve that GFY.

I might be racist, but I ain't no hater!!!

I ain't bitin' on the M&P either; only one of them is the house is my wife's 9mm & I like it OK, but honestly, my hand fits Glock's profile better that it does the M&P so don't think I'll make that switcheroo.

So, in the larger scheme of things, your hand must be a bit [bleep] up........prolly too much, well, you know........

Anyway GFY or whatever else spins your prop.

MM

We all deserve a GFY. Everybody. Nobody is special, or exempt.

I love Glocks. But the grip angle is juuust a bit outside of what an Amuurican would build. But you can't make Euro-Trash not Euro-Trash so I take them for what they are.

[bleep] M&P is a machine thus far. Time will tell.


Travis

I also like the take-down of the Glock better too & the massive array of aftermarket parts available........just did triggers on 4 of 'em.

Maybe the M&P will have similar availability of parts at competitive prices in the not-too-distant future.

Is yours a 40?

MM

Since I'm out of the 10 biz now, I'm having a renewed interest again in my 38 Super.

Today's one of the few days I actually did a little load work over the chrony. Ran the 124 JHP's to a tish over 1400....wowzer.

Gonna settle on 8 grains of HS-6 with said bullet right at 1300 even. Even running that GD full length guide rod, with a shock buff no less....

I agree on the takedown. Who is the moron @ S&W that agreed to that Ruger-esque takedown design? [bleep] that schit.

But at least the grip angle is made for normal people. Well on its way to being the best combat pistol EVAH!


Travis

No [bleep] way a .38 Super could kill me. Not a chance.

Just hit bottom on the last Bent Nail and I gots schit to find in the AM.

GFY,
Travis

Blue's brainwashed you...........

MM

And to you....

Give 'em hell tomorrow, and don't be trying to win the dink-a-thon....

Typical Colt product.
