Rocky,
I stand guilty as charged for whatever.

That is a super nice LCRx you have there.

I picked up a Bul 1911 in 9mm a while back. With the weather not cooperating, I hadn’t had a chance to shoot it. In handling the pistol, I was impressed with fit and finish.



Yesterday, I was able to get to the range and I was amazed how nice it shot. The trigger pull is around 3-1/2+ pounds. The 9mm caliber coupled with a great trigger and the weight of the full sized, all steel 1911 pistol make this baby one sweet shooter!

This is my 7 yard target:

MicK,
That is super nice. Looks like you got that dialed in just right.

What was the ammo you used???

Wayne,

I was shooting Herter’s “Target” 115 grain 9mm FMJ. It is made by Winchester.

Mick,
That is very good. Obviously, it functioned perfectly???

In the photo it shows the piece cocked and locked. Just the way John M. Browning designed it to be carried.

With it cocked and locked,there are 5 safeties in place.

The 1911 platform has been around well over a century and cannot be improved upon.

In '68, a contractor that was doing house renovation came to police HQ with a 1911 he found in an attic. It was cocked and locked with a full magazine. Documents showed that it had been stored that way since about 1920.

I took the old ammo out,basically lubed the gun,put fresh ammo in and it functioned perfectly.

Springs had been compressed for about 50 yrs.

Rocky,
Looks like a lot of good meat there. Much better than the stuff from the store.

You anywhere near Moultrie??? Each October I go there for my annual quail hunt.....................and rattlesnake encounters.
