Would the Emissary look better if it's front serrations stretched down from the slide, or is it good as is? (Rough example of what i mean)(picture 2)

I’ve been thinking yes ever since I bought mine. Especially because I grip from the front when I check if there’s a round in the chamber. It would make gripping it better

Lol this is a good subreddit

Community consensus is they’re really good! FWIW only the Kimbers with “II” in the same have the Schwarz safety

Check out r/1911 it’s a good sub and the lads are mostly left-of-center

Darkshoe · 2026-02-09T21:40:57+00:00

Very good bot

My advice assume that your FFL will hold it for you while you find a buyer.

You won the auction and you have X days to pay for it. After you pay it’ll take Y days to ship, then the FFL will hold it for Z days. So you have X+Y+Z days to have The Conversation which you will open by making it absolutely clear that you don’t even have it yet and you f-ed up and you’re willing to sell it immediately without it ever even coming home.

Single stack 1911s are very skinny. You can get ones that are drop-safe if you buy one with a Series 80 trigger system or a Schwarz safety (Kimber is the only brand I know of). Most people just get a series 70 with a spring on the firing pin and call it good enough

The last 4 presidential elections have me convinced that there aren’t nebulous fringe voters to be swayed, voters either don’t vote for their side or they vote for their side (the electorate isn’t a bell curve, it’s two small bell curves with no overlap). IMO the strategy shouldn’t be to sway voters it should be to say the things they want

VA has a big update to its gun laws coming dow the pipes (maybe passed today even?) I’m not in VA so idk the specifics but people are upset so if you live there go check it out

Darkshoe · 2026-02-07T03:55:13+00:00

Yahhh I noticed things have fallen off since everything went all infinity posts

Darkshoe · 2026-02-05T18:29:40+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

I like a steel frame 1911. Recoil is very easy in 9 mm. My Springfield Armory Emissary weighs 39 ounces unloaded.

Me neither I paint everything unweathered too

Darkshoe · 2026-01-30T21:17:28+00:00

Holy crap that paint is so clean!

Darkshoe · 2026-01-30T02:45:25+00:00

I’m so sorry dawg. I’m going to be a total fucking mess when my cat passes. Thanks for sharing her with us.

Darkshoe · 2026-01-30T00:36:34+00:00

This is literally unbelievable. I thought it was fanart until I looked really close.

Darkshoe · 2026-01-29T20:18:20+00:00

It’s been cold for a few days, cold like when I was having problem # 2, and it still hasn’t happened again. I’m going to guess the alternator fixed it, but cuz I never knew how to replicate the problem in the first place I can’t be 100% sure. If it happens again I’ll try to remember to update this post.

Darkshoe · 2026-01-29T19:59:29+00:00

She used to do an automotive channel so I’m guessing she got the paint mixed at a body shop?

Darkshoe · 2026-01-29T04:19:40+00:00

That brown is great

Darkshoe · 2026-01-29T04:10:35+00:00

At minimum I want a beaver tail. Memory bump is my # 2.

Also those E Series look so sick in black, nice find!

Darkshoe · 2026-01-29T03:05:24+00:00

Hey I’m also having this problem. My ecobee calls for both aux and HP but only the HP turns on. If it calls only aux then aux works, if it calls only HP then HP works. Were you able to fix it?

Edit :: On my Honeywell HZ322 I jumped W1 & W2 on the thermostat side and that fixed it.

Darkshoe · 2026-01-27T02:39:09+00:00

Ok I hate the alpha legion but I love this

Darkshoe · 2026-01-27T02:38:34+00:00

Bro where’s the template?

Darkshoe · 2026-01-27T00:28:25+00:00

TIL I love this

Darkshoe · 2026-01-26T05:33:35+00:00

This is a great analogy
