Im going to be buying a warrior sometime in the near future and it will probably end up having a streamlight trl3 light on it, but I was wondering if anyone out there has a viridian x5l on their warrior. If so would you mind sharing pics of it with me? For the already owners of the warrior how do you guys like it? anything I should know about it before purchasing? Any and all advice/help/stories are welcomed, that is all. Thanks fellas!

What are you looking to know...
Get good mags and do not penny pinch on them they are usually the source of most failures in 1911's.

I ran 200 rounds through my Desert Warrior yesterday with Kimber mags and it ran like a top. Wilson mags are better yet.

You asked for pics so here you go. Biggest mistake I made was selling my Kimber Tactical Custom 2. That thing was a tack driver.

Still breaking it in. 15yds pretty good, definitely minute of carjacker. Truth is I don't have much practice with this

gun yet so my groups were not as tight as the tactical custom 2 I sold a few months back. Should have took pictures

but I was outside and the weather was pretty crappy.

No TLR-3, sorry.  But here's a pic of my old warrior with an M3 (pls excuse my meager and quite amateurish attempt at gun pron).  She ran like a scalded hound.  I sold her off, however, to fund the purchase of yet another warrior... one that had been worked on by Novak's and had a few upgrades done to it.    

Yes, I really like warriors and suspect you will too.
