Only got to run 28 rds of 230 gr RN white box Win. through it yesterday
Not a lot of rds but it functioned perfectly Buttery smooth 
Only bad thing is I could only find 19 pcs of brass of the 28 fired Thought I had the tarp I layed down on top of the leaves strategically perfect

That's a beauty!
I like the longer trigger, but otherwise a no frills set up. |

Congrats. Cylinder and slide makes a nice drop in S80 trigger enhancement pack. I dropped that into my Delta along with a few other upgrades.

Thanks, I may check that out An expert on the 1911 I'm certainly not, but the long trigger does feel better than the shorter GI a1 model triggers I've fired I'm heading out to my range hopefully soon and I may make a decision on that |

If yours is anything like mine, the trigger will get better with use.

Thanks all! I'm please as punch
The gun as it sits now is still a better gun than I am a shooter so I'll probably keep it all stock Only thing I'm buying for it now is a few 8 round magazines Going to concentrate on handloading for it after the holidays (might sneak out there tomorrow) and experiment loading different HP's Merry Christmas ! |
