Very nice! Classy, practical, and just plain cool. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the comment Shane
Nice gun. I used to shoot 45 acp all the time. As an older dude, It's just a little too snappy for me. Because of that - I get the yips!! It's just not as enjoyable as it once was. So now i shoot and carry 9mm. Keep up the good work Chris
Thanks Brad I too shoot more 9mm than I used to. My go to 9mm is a CZ 75. A 1911 in 9mm is on my list
Para was
A
Canadian company. Then they moved to the US. Remington bought para. Then Remington went belly up. The Para Limited P14 and P16 were very competitive USPSA guns
The one I had was Canadian made and it was great Thanks for watching
Great video! I was excited to see this one come out.
Great day on the range!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
For sure
Nice pistol. I’m always happy to see cast bullets giving better accuracy than jacketed.
I think I’m probably the only person who can’t stand fiber optic sights.
This is my first one with optic sights. I am still undecided Thanks for watching
Awesome gun! Thanks for the review. I know i probably sound like a broken record, but carrying cocked and locked (at least with a series 70 gun) is safer than carrying loaded with the hammer down. If the gun is dropped in the cocked position and the hammer goes forward it has safety catch at the half cock. It does not have that safety catch in the hammer down or half cock position. Imo, carrying cocked and locked is extremely safe. You have the redundancy of the half cock catch, the thumb safety, and the grip safety. When you holster the weapon, do so carefully and press the gun into the holster with your thumb between hammer and slide, double check the thumb safety and you're good to go. It's one of the safest guns to carry. The series 80 models are even safer as they add in the internal firing pin catch like most modern semi auto handguns creating even one more redundancy. I know that the spectre of the cocked gun is intimidating and seems like something dangerous, but realize that 85% of guns carried today are cocked striker fire handguns with no thumb safety, no grip safety, just a trigger safety (which is a bad joke imo) and an internal firing pin block (which is actuated by pulling the trigger as well). So the 1911, is definitely in the top echelon of safe guns to carry and cocked and locked is the way to go. Just use care when holstering (should be done with all handguns to make sure you don't get the shirt tail in the trigger guard, etc)
I apologise if this comes off as some kind of lecture. It's not meant to. Oh, and you can change the safety spring out with a stiffer wolfe spring for like 3 bones.
Thanks for the great comment I didn't think about changing the spring out on the safety. I don't disagree with you on the safety comments. I have never really carried a 1911 in the field. I might start now I have a Charles Day and now this Rock Island both very accurate. My go to for semi auto carry is double action exposed hammer FNX or CZ 75. Thanks for watching
Nice gun you have there Chris! Good bang for the Buck…. Pun intended.
I agree with carrying with one n the chamber and the hammer down, Just like ‘ol’ Walt Longmire.
I have a Ruger SR 1911 and they are safe that way according to what I’ve read.
I have also read somewhere that a heavier bullet will impact higher out of a pistol due to it being slower and imparting recoil to the gun a little longer than a lighter, faster bullet.
Once again great content in your videos.
@@boydsteenblock1328 Thanks Boyd I always enjoy your great comments
You can see the attraction of the 200 grain SWC- a gun will usually give the best accuracy with something like that. I think if you can beat 2.5" with a stock 1911 that isn't a high priced model then you are doing good.
Thanks for the comment Bill The FNX and the Sig 320 don't love the 200 SWC as much as the 1911's do. Not sure why. All of my 45 ACP's shoot good maybe that is why I love the 45 so much. Thanks for watching
Hope all is well. Been a while since this video posted and nothing new. Look forward to your videos!
Thanks, Larry. Things have been just super busy this time year with Pharmacy and cattle is busy plus with the passing of my dad. Just seemed like there’s one crisis after another. Have lots of fun projects coming though thanks for supporting the channel
Nice gun! Sure has been a long time since we worked together.
Who I am talking to
Russ
Is this built in Cedar ?
Hope we both visit our friends Dan $ Michelle and they helped you get this awesome plinkster
not sure where it is built. I am not following you with your Dan and Michelle comment Thanks for watching
@@chrisevansgunshorsesranchi699 there is a pawn/gun shop not to far from your neck of the woods and they do auctions every now and again. Dan and Michelle own and operate it.
Just thought maybe you might have got their help with a purchase a time or 2
I've picked up mine Today.
Bud, do you have the same Problem?
I can't load more than 10 Rounds in the Mag.
The Spring is so strong i think i break my Fingers.
Don't know what to do?
The spring is pretty strong. I can get 14 in the mag. Maybe pull out the spring and trim it a little. Good luck
