Sorry to hijack your thread DA, but this is a good topic to ask a question since it involves your subject matter.
Should a 1911 like this be used as a shooter or be put away for safe keeping?
The reason I ask is after my father-in-law passed away a couple years ago I found his father's Army issued 1911. I used it on the IPSC range on day and another guy there said I should stop using it.
What do you guys think?
