Good handguns

I used to own a Wilson CQB that was flawless, but I had a polymer frame KZ45 that was the worst gun I ever owned. I have a Springfield Professional

I have a Springfield Professional FBI model, a Springfield Custom Shop "Custom Carry", and my two custom Colt Commanders (and my old Colt Defender that I sold) were all built by Springfield Custom. They do excellent custom work at reasonable prices. They also did custom work on one of my Les Baer TRS models, and they built a custom TRP for me.

I tried to send them a pile of Glocks to install Heine sights, but I think they actually laughed at that request!

I got stuck with a TRS once, too. Les Baer ranks a step below HiPoint in my book. Workman-ship, wise, anyway. Here is a picture of my (formerly) hard-chrome (from LB) TRS, or as I like to call it "Tool of Recycled Slag">



I all but gave that pistol away. 1911's were great back in the day, but it's like going back to points ignition when we have direct ignition. When nearly 5K can't buy me one that runs 500 rounds down the tube without a jam, I don't want it. Give me a Glock. I want something that goes "bang". not "....wait for it...oh ****! It's jammed...again."
