    Just shot my
    TRP, Les Bauer Thunder Ranch


    I am in love

    TRP is awesome

    Les Bauer is awesome improved.

    Though I would have thought there would be a huge difference, based on price.

    Only a small difference...


    Still happy

    I own a lot of guns, but out of every one I own now and in the past a full size 1911 is the funnest I've ever shot. Everything about them just seems right.

    I've had a few plain old Colts, one NM GC, and I only have a E series S&W now. Never shot a custom or worked over one.

    The Les Bauer is near perfect.......
    But only near....

    The Factory grips are really cool, logo n all.
    But really smooth..

    Damn man nice collection! The grips do freshen things up a bit. I might need to do that to my TLE RL II.

    Just found out I’ve inherited a Colt 1911 officers model. Won’t be able to pick it up for awhile cause it’s over 5000 miles away. Can’t wait to have it in my possession.

    There's a 1911 gunsmith on here who works magic....

    He's in So Cal if you want his info...

    He could do it and it will be right.

    Yes one day. I won’t have it till spring 2020. I have to sell my home here move to Oregon first then drive to PA and pick it up. This was all planned before I found out I’m getting the 1911 along with other firearms
