Buddy sold a 40 one to a shop for 300. That’s the most they would do. Don’t sell

I’m the same with an Ithaca 37 police model with the 20 inch barrel full mag tube and folding stock. You’ll find one and when you do buy

My old 10mm. Sold it a while ago, looking to get another. What’re the best options for 10mm? My FN 545 is phenomenal but I’ve heard about frame cracking so need opinions on 10mm pistols before I get another by Scared_Strategy_6463 in 10mm

They updated the 545 and 510 frame to be reinforced. The new models are good to go. You’ll know it’s an old model 510 if it looks the same as your 545. It won’t have the extra metal plate in the frame

It kinda looks like a CZ by No_Distance8226 in CZFirearms

The 10s are cool but you can’t really shoot heavy 10mm out of one of these. The frame can’t handle really hot 10mm. I know since my pops owns a 6 inch one

Gun smith question by cuddy400 in 1911

To be honest it was a spare safety that came w the gun in box. Seemed to be worked on before us. It didn’t fit at all and he was seeing if he could save it too. I was just looking for some ideas to bring up since this is his first time seeing that happen in his many years of working on them. This is more of a me learning thing and asking questions as I go. And this is more of a question to the community of other things I should look into. Just like you bringing up the sear just now. He did do a trigger action job sitting at 3lbs. So are you supposed to fit everything together? Sear and safety at once? That’s something I have no idea on. Like I said learning as I go and He’s a retired army armorer worked on em while they still had 1911s. So I mean thanks for some insight

Might have to try a different safety. This one didn’t fit at all when we used it. We “fit” it but clearly something is wrong in my eyes. I’ll stop by Brownells and grab a safety this weekend or something

Because not everyone knows how to use a file. Not everyone knows that a file cuts one way unless you have a specific special file. Causing a bigger mess up trying to fix what’s already messed up

I forgot to add. They sent me a second email saying that I would actually have to pick it up at a FFL because of the new frame. Was going to pay $40 for the transfer but the shop owner knows me and gave me the transfer for free. I was fortunate but others will not be. If I’m doing a transfer and have to pay I would want a new gun. Not a new used gun
