as of 16 days ago... yes. Luckily Arizona & nevada are short drives away... Not that I would try to get around our Glorious Leader and his Glorious Laws. I would never do that.

I love my Kimber. IDK if I would buy another 1911 though. They're so picky and high maintenance lol.

Not all of them. I've had a few more stripped down ones that ate everything without a hiccup. But anything that's built for competition-grade accuracy tends to be a picky eater.

I want a 10mm 1911 next. In case my home is invaded. By a tank.

I have a bunch of 80% lowers that are drilled. I purchased them before the ban of this year. Not sure what to do with them. I really wanted to make a BlackOut AR but idk much about the round.

Yea, I kinda just went straight for the CDP II. I never really looked at much else. Just liked the look and package details for the price. I should get the ramp worked on though. Maybe itll help the feed.

Me too but I gotta wait on that. It will be my most expensive pistol purchase ever and I'm trying to justify it in my head.

We've got till Jan 1 2018 to horde all the ammo.... after that we're screwed. Maybe that's why I'm not at the range more often....
