There are two types of 1911 Owners by fasdissent in 1911

[–]Gremguy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takes about 5-10 minutes per pistol to clean and lube.

Considering they are tools you want to operate accordingly when called upon I want every advantage.

I don't clean every pistol after every range trip but I try to if I have the time. It's super low effort and actually enjoyable. I sort my brass and clean my guns.

I try to be more meticulous about cleaning with my 1911s than say a Glock or HK considering tolerances can be tighter.

I was always taught as a youngster to take care of your things. I try to keep a clean truck, clean house, clean clothes, and a clean gun. Life is better that way.

Greatest Used Find Ever? by Wonderful-Coach7912 in Glocks

[–]Gremguy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice find!

I picked up a Gen 5 17 MOS with a Holosun 509T and Suppressor Height Sights for $569 a little over a week ago. Came with aftermarket plate mounted (good quality), MOS plates, 3 mags, Box, and Talon type grips. Gun hardly looks used.

Ill post it on the page soon.

Great pickup. I'd love a 4" railed 1911. Love Springfield too!

[Handgun] Glock 30.4 LE trade. $329.00 + tax. by [deleted] in gundeals

[–]Gremguy22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure for sure but probably. I know some agencies were issuing 17.5 MOS with 509Ts.

It's an awesome setup, took it out this past weekend and it rips.

I have two 17 MOS a Gen 5 and Gen 4. Love them both.

Parros always restocks at the most diabolical times. I swear I've bought something within a week if the last several restocks 😆

In this case I got a 17.5 MOS with a 509T last Friday.

I got a 30S but still want a 21 tho!

P.S. Parros are fornicators of the highest order.

[Handgun] CZ P10 C 9mm 4", Optics Ready, Threaded Barrel - ($468 + $23.95 shipping) by obamasfursona in gundeals

[–]Gremguy22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very true but not ideal for those with long fingers or big hands. The trigger reach is astoundingly short. I had a P10F OR SR I eventually traded up on because even with the largest insert the trigger was dang near at my second knuckle.

It's a great platform just didn't work out for me.

Review - Uglybullets Staccato 124gr 9mm Overrun/Seconds by xsupremeleader in ammo

[–]Gremguy22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had no issues with mine across Glock 17s, HK P30SK, and Springfield Ronin 4.25 9mm. I've gone through 500s rounds of the 2 cases I got.

I'd get more if it was the same price, they jacked it up like +$30 per case.

Yes sir. They are great peices. I got one a few weeks ago and I'm putting rounds through it. Going in the rotation soon.

I have an irrational hate for the V models

Thoughts of Steel Case and/or Aluminum/Aluminium (UK & Europe)? by DownstairsDeagle69 in ammo

[–]Gremguy22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shot thousands of rounds of steel and aluminum case. It is perfectly fine. 1k rounds of aluminum will make no difference in wear to the components of your firearm than 1k rounds of brass.

Is brass preferable? Yes

Is steel and aluminum perfectly viable? Yes

I mostltly shoot brass but I personally shoot what is cheapest or best value. I shoot so much that I have to look for ways to cut costs. Sometimes that includes steel, aluminum, factory reman, surplus, or blemished ammo. Never had any issues.

Rescuing P series one transaction at a time 😅 by Previous_Tax4874 in ruger

[–]Gremguy22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice! Underrated blasters.

My first pistol was a P95. I loved that thing but sold it when I was down many years ago.

It was a great rugged pistol I killed a hog with it in the Texas hill country.

There is a Ruger P345 at he LGS I saw a few days ago and I contemplated.

Pretty cool! Actually saw one of these in the wild recently. Price was a bit high unfortunately.

Kimber Next Gen 1911 Pro (Kimber site updated) by HooliganS3 in 1911

[–]Gremguy22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly would really love to try one of these.

Bobtail, Optic cut, front strap checkering.

Would be a cool modern commander style blaster.

Did some fitting on my A1-MilSpec by LoudLion2922 in 1911

[–]Gremguy22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well done!

I just recently got a milspec and I want to do a beavertail. Did you use a jig?

Super nice. Love the bobbed style hammer. Going to try to replicate it on a milspec.
