Smaller caliber and less magazine capacity? Not likely!
My new toy. Flush magazines hold 12 rounds of 45ACP, extended hold 14. This pistol is tighter than any custom 1911 I’ve handled.

New at AllOutdoor: Just Right Carbine, 45ACP
Larger caliber variant of the previously covered carbine.
A baker’s dozen of 45s.
Metro Arms 3011 SSD Tactical
A very tight M1911
I like the grip texture — subtle but conducive to retention on recoil. The pistol itself is made to rather close clearances and feels very tight. Original-style guide rod, crisp trigger. Made by Metro Arms.
Armed reader
She’s reading “Knowing Guns” (written by Stu Chisholm and illustrated by me). The pistol is a Metro Arms American Classic II in a Vega holster.
One gun, two cylinders.
Ted Nugent branded .45Colt — 260gr at 800fps. Nice short-range hunting round. The revolver is a Ruger Blackhawk with pewter grips If .45Colt is unavailable, a mild 200gr plated plinking load in 45ACP is an option. Or any other round … Continue reading

Multi-caliber
For the upcoming article in Concealed Carry magazine about .22 adapters and rimfire clones of centerfire guns. This Iver Johnson set has .22 for practice, 9mm for competitions and 45ACP for carry.
Is That a Gun in Your Pocket?
Being able to go from very casual to extremely purposeful in a second can be a tactical advantage.

A modern amazon.
The bow is for deer, a tasty doe or a wide-racked hart The pistol for evil creatures not so dear to her heart (with apologies to those who actually write good verses)
Good weather makes range time that much better.
Rimfire STG44. Cutts compensator doing its job well. Mike, obviously compensating for something. (Photo by Mike Branson) Full report on Savage mkII-SR, JRC 9mm, STG44, Henry .22 and others coming a little later.
Getting ready for a big weekend.
I am planning two range days this weekend. Mostly shooting 22s, but a few larger guns are coming along. That means loading up magazines, too. How many rounds is that? Two full boxes, kindly provided by Lucky Gunner. The original … Continue reading
The best 1927 Thompson movie scene
Miller’s Crossing has one of the best choreographed Thompson submachine gun scenes. I just have still photos of the 1927-A1 semi-auto carbine with a 100-round “pizza platter” drum. “Flash mob coming, you say? I should have enough for everybody.”

And speaking of BBQ guns: Nighthawk Heinie
Nighthawk Heinie .45 — curiously, it doesn’t seem to be a cataloged model. Grips are this gun’s one departure from decorative: they are designed for use with shooting gloves. For carry or showing off, smoother grips would make sense. Crimson … Continue reading
Pleasant surprises at the range.
When I go to a range, I usually fire off the magazine in my carry pistol to replace the old ammunition with fresh. With the 1911, I am always surprised when my target gets illuminated with a red dot. I … Continue reading

“Paratrooper” M1 carbine
Got my hands on an Auto Ordnance M1 carbines in folding and standard configurations. I prefer the two-aperture flip sight because it doesn’t jump settings on recoil like the M2 ladder sight. I also like the wood better than the … Continue reading
