Are you straight, yet still able to appreciate another man's body in a sexual way?

I think gendo is confused

Semi-serious question:

Used Tarus PT1911 or new RIA 1911?

My wife only allows me to have 3 guns, but I have 5 (6 if you count the LGC AR lower). How do I break it to her that the marriage isn't going to work out?

They look like fucking basketballs. Jesus christ, how much fatter do you plan on getting?

(Just one example of the correct answer.)

you don't, just don't let her know the combination to your safe, and don't let her see you getting anything out of it. Problem solved. In fact you can even get more. Buy with cash and she won't know.

Well you have two choices. The first is get the used Taurus, After our Rock Island Armory 1911 I would never reccomend them over another 1911 unless you had to spend no more than $400. Or you could wait, and get the new Ruger SR 1911. Ruger is known world wide for good reliable guns and great customr service. Trust me you won't regret it.... though I can't say that for 100% certain yet, as it has not come out. But based on rugers reputation, it's a good choice.

Can you elaborate? I've heard good things about the RIA and only a little bad.

The SR1911 is a little more than I have to spend and I'm not sure I want stainless...

it's not that they are "bad" guns. But the one I had was not the most reliable. It didn't function as smooth as the Taurus I test fired. Overall still a good gun, it's hard to go wrong with a 1911 but RIA uses the cheap parts. Low quality steel in comparison to other guns and the like. If you don't want stainless. Then a used Taurus is a good bet. I personally would go for an STI Spartan if I was on a tight budget looking for a 1911 myself. it's about $700 but if that's out of your range then a good high standard might do, but that's about as cheap as 1911's come. (other than RIA, which are cheap for a reason)

Heard back from one place: "while we are not hiring right now, your resume and experience are highly impressive, and we would like to keep your resume on file."

Heres a possible question, I'm not looking for a gun for self defense but am planning a handgun hunt. What are the advantages in getting a revolver in 454 casull insted of one in say 475 or 500 linebaugh?

Factory 454 ammo is probably cheaper but if you reload you have to fiddle around with small rifle primers. And the recoil is wicked. 45 colt will take care of most anything on this side of the globe. I want a 475 anyhow.

Both Linebaugh's are very close to the venerable 454 casull in terms of energy. They have larger diamerter which means they will do more damage, though this is going to be slight (well more than slight in the 500's case).

With how close all three of these rounds are in terms of weight, muzzle energy, and velocity (all in the area of 300-440grain closer to 400 for all of them about 450-500m/s), your not really talking much difference on paper. If you must absolutely have it dead, a .500 S&W magnum will do much better for the same price as the 500 linebaugh, and the .454 will be nearly indistinguishable from the .475 linebaugh, for a hair cheaper.

Long story short. Avoid the linebaugh's, they're great rounds but they are rare, and offer next to nothing over a .454 casull or .500 S&M magnum. Get a gun in .454 Casull for it's availibility and option to shoot .45 long colt for practice, or get a .500 S&W magnum for the big stuff. I'd really recommend the .454 casull though. It's penetration is known and it's track record is prooven, and the flexibility you get with it is unmatched. There are even revolvers that can shoot .454 casull .45 long colt, and .410 shot shells. So that would be my recommendation..... unless you come across T-rex's on a daily basis in which case. the 500 S&W magnum would be the minimum you'd want.

Not bad but there are somethings you need to brush up on. First and foremost DO NOT call the 45 Colt a 45 long colt. Also you need to brush up on saami cup scales. The Linebaughs do every thing the casull does and more at 38,000 cup that the casull does at 60,000. That means less recoil. The 500 S&W was created because the company wanted to say they made the most powerfull once again. Magnum research is now chambering the BFR in 500JRH which is a shortened 500 S&W case in a normal sized gun with the same performance. Handgun hunters tend to know their shit a little better than people looking to buy a bed side table gun and its best to know what your talking about. This was meant as a bit of friendly advice.

Did I say 45 colt, i remember saying .45 long colt.

Didn't someone put a .600 nitro express in a revolver?

True good point, didn't notice that. Still theres more to recoil than CUP.


I mean still I go with .454, the linebaughs are marginally more powerful, but they can't shoot .410 shells like some .454 casulls can (though if your getting a real hunting gun, don't get one that can chamber the .410 it makes it a little bit less accurate because of the lead up) and the availibility. .454 is just more accessable. Last I read if you really want linebaughs you have to make them. That might have changed.

You misunderstood my post. 45 long colt is incorrect. 45 Colt is correct. It may be splitting hairs but if you are going into sales its always best to sound like you know what you are talking about. Plus you need to get over this fascination with the casull and the 500S&W as your generation likes to say they are so last year.

oh it was the .45 colt. Had them mixed up, lol and I was doing some shopping for a judge a while back.

The .500 may have been soooo last year but the .454 has stuck around for a reason. Same reason the .45 acp has. Power is nice and all but when your talking rounds with 5 to 10% difference in power/recoil, and one is availible everywhere for half the cost and the other has to be made in your basement or can be found but is ridiculously expensive... Go with the cheap one, unless your rich. in which case, go with the gun you like better.

Is the .460 the one that can chamber both the .454 and the .45 Colt in addition to it's intended chambering?

AmirMortal wrote:Is the .460 the one that can chamber both the .454 and the .45 Colt in addition to it's intended chambering?

Yes, you can also cut the 460 down to 454 casull length so you can load the casull with large pistol primers instead of small rifle. I don't like shooting short cases in long chambers because of the jump to the cylinder throats. I reload 357s down to 38 spec. velocity rather then shoot 38 spec. in 357s.
