Love my 1911!!

Mine were all well used as well. People don't often understand the number of rounds a competitive shooter sends downrange. When I was active I would shoot the complete Bianchi Action Pistol course of fire 2-3 times a day and then spend additional time on the problem areas such as the longer distances on the mover and the plate x-count times. At that time I was buying power buy the keg, bullets from Star in lots of fifty thousand, and primers by the case. The civilian serialed numbered .45 was shoot first by my father who shot on the Air Force Bullseye team, it was shoot quite a bit before I received it as a Christmas gift when I was 16. The Briley probably had the least number of rounds shot through it, maybe 20,000 or so as I was concentrating on Action Pistol back then.

Thats true.. People that shoot competetively will usuaslly shoot more rounds in one or two days than most people do in a lifetime..

Thats really neat that your C-series was shot by your Dad in the Air Force and then you got it.. What a great X-Mas present
 
Here's my baby -

Heber, you need to stop neglecting that poor pistol. Only 400 rounds? You need to take her out more.

I'd shoot it every other weekend or more if I could. When I worked full time I'd shoot once a week or more and I would put 100 rounds or more through a Springfield GI rental once a month or more. But working part time right now doesn't leave me with much in the way of shooting money. :( I'm working the remidy that though.

Has your round count gone up any in the last few days?

Nah, I can't get out as much as I want to either. I can only make it to the range a couple of times a month.
 
Nice guns guys! I love the 1911! I own a Colt Commander. My all time favorite handgun. I am gonna get me a full size colt soon. I have owned Kimber and springfield, but Colt is my fave!
