Got a package from Sarco Inc. today – Thursday – which is pretty good since I ordered these on Monday – way to go Sarco!
Now I can start burning the new to me 01911C Colt Government Model into muscle memory.
I bought 3 of these awhile back and they run good – and I really like to go and do the shooting thing – the reloading magazine think? – not so much . . .
I can really enjoy getting into the rhythm of shooting and then you have to stop and load mags – or dig out my loaded mags and take them along as well. and that’s a pain since they are all sleeping soundly with their respective 1911s in the boxes. This way I can really focus on the shooting – run 70 rounds – then step back and throw everything in the range bag and beat feet home.
Ain’t they purty – LOL!
Get home and wipe the mags down – reload and into the range bag they go. Then bath time for the pistol – or if I shoot more than 1 – pistols – and ready for the next trip. 70 rounds lets me get into the zone to the point that when the trigger breaks I pretty much know where the shot is going to land. It took 3 to 5 hundred rounds each for my EDC Rock Island and the Colt M1991A1 to get to that point – I run 1 or 2 magazines in either one before I rotate it into carry – that’s about all it takes to get the “feel” for it once I burn one into muscle memory.
My BBQ / Sunday Go To Meeting 1911 I shoot 3 or 4 times a year . . .
The newest RIA in the house – just ran 4 or 5 mags through it for a function check – once I get the “new” Colt dialed in I will start in on it . . .
It so much wants to be my primary RIA carry – patience young Jedi – patience! – LOL!
Remember folks – get out and practice – a 2 way range is NOT where you want to realize you should have practiced a wee bit more! With winter upon most of us, I would like to remind you – indoor ranges are warm and not covered in snow.
Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
