How many rounds will you put down range in your 1911(s) a year ?

Have you got a 1911 with 100,000 rounds or more ? Please, share a picture.

That is just in that gun I have 2 others I will put that much through between practice and matches in my  STI 40 and 38 super.  .
Lots of fun in USPSA  matches..

Usually 2-3k. Depends on cash flow. Broke college student :/.

Not more than 1,000rds through any single one.



Might change whenever I get a package from Miller Custom though, that sucker will get the shit shot out of it!

It's a gun and I bought it to shoot :) 2500 rds through my Colt SCG .45.

300 per month if I get to the range and if I feel like loading so rough guess around 2000.

I have several so I averaged the figure between the 3.  500 /yr was my poll.

I voted 2k since I've been shooting my glock 22lr conversion more since 45 is hard to find and expensive when it is found. I had enough to not buy any for a few years but after a 2 day pistol class next month it will be gone.

I've got one with a unknown number of rounds. It was a duty/swat gun for years before the owner gave it to me. I have rebuilt most of it though.

10,000+ per year

Somewhere around 5k through my wad gun,and another 2k or so through the ball gun.

realisticly i will probably only put 1K through any one gun in 1years time. I don't get to shoot nearly as much as id wish to because of money,Time, and anything else that gets in the way of my happy place. that is a realistic # for me.

I buy around 20k bullets and primers a year and usually have a few hundred/couple thousand leftover before winter really slows down the shooting.



This includes what my wife and kids burn through, mostly my son and I but still.



Too easy to walk out on the backporch and ring some steel.

Only being home 4 months out of the year, I guesstimate that I put approximately 2k rds out of my 1911s alone...that's spread out among several 1911s.  Wish I could shoot them more, but I gotta spread the love among all my toys.

I do not think any of us could afford 100,000 rounds of 45ACP but if I ever end up making it to 100,000 you will be first to know.

Edgecrusher, you'll get there a whole lot faster reloading. Pictured is a 100,000+ round count 1911. Just off the top of my head I can think of at least three members in this forum that have 100,000 round count 1911s.

1911 smith, got any more detailed pics of that high mileage bad boy?

Between 500 and 750 just in range trips. More (probably double that) if I take a training class.
