Looking to Purchase a 1911 .45 Range Gun
« on: May 19, 2020, 05:15:23 PM »
Title says it all...something nice that doesn't break the bank & is in perfect/near perfect condition. Any safe queens need to go? Thanks.
Having a gun in your hand is much more effective than having the entire police department on the phone!

So close, but so far.... I have a Springfield 45 micro operator; it still has tags on it. It’s two-tone with those beautiful wood grips they used to put on them. But I suppose the barrel’s an inch or two too short.

Nice gun, but would prefer longer barrel. Thanks & Stay Safe!

Hopefully gun shows will be back this summer.  By then a lot of folks will need cash and you might find a good deal from another individual walking the show. 

I've had good luck doing that in the past.
