is kent invisible?

before i had the work done to the GI i was shooting it at 100 yards, shots varied by about 4'-6' and damn do those bullets ricochet(bounce?) at that distance, watching them skip up the hill was kind of funny.

it looks a lot like a penis. yeah, it does. a penis that's shooting 230g .45 loads..hehe and can go 7-8 times without stopping. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee which reminds me...his .38 super, double stack with a huge mag well held i think 28 or 32 rounds....and that was without sticking past the mag well (except some of the bumper)

won't bother actually hitting reply..too much text. this guy said he usually cuts off the gun a little when he does a compensator (yea trims like 1/2" off the slide/barrel) so it's back down to a manageable size. With how little this guy has charged me so far, i'm betting for not too much more than that comp he'd put a real one on.

ryan2, that's more the style of shooting i'm used to. We've never been a rapid fire family, lol. One target, in the distance. one of my best shots was a pop can at about 90-100yards with my .22 (pistol of course). Took me two shots, one to see where the hell the bullet would be, the next put a hole right in the center of it. I should have kept the can.

it looks a lot like a penis.

i have the commander style on my kimber (factory). are you using an extended beaver tail? if so, is it already notched for the commander hammer? if not, it will need to be. i seem to recall you saying something about installing a different beavertail. i'll see if i can't dig up a closeup, or i'll take one later. the only thing i want to add to teh kimber is an extended slide release, and maybe a bushing style compensator. either of you guys use one of those? my kimber is starting to rust, the bastage. from sitting. i've oiled her up pretty good, but me thinks kimber will be getting a letter. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the beavertail has a groove cut in it, no idea if it's what you're talking about though. I had the crappy regular safety on it before but just had a bunch of work done to it. The guy did a pucking great job except for scratching the gun up a little when he put it in the vise (no big deal because i plan on polishing it to a mirror finish anyway). I had the beavertail installed, new extended safety (what you are thinking of is probably the extended slide release), had the whole thing tightened (very nice groups now for not having a nice barrel) had a full trigger job, brought the pull down to about 3.5lbs according to him, zero creep, also had the ejection port lowered flared and scalloped. I've heard the bushing style compensators are useless, they can't have a tolerance that's close enough to be effective. The guy that did my gun was shooting a .38 super with the works done to it including a compensator, and while he was awesome with the gun, it didn't jump at all. With mine it jumps a lot but it's also predictable and easy to come back down to target quickly. I am seriously debating a .38 super after talkin to him though. That's all he shoots now. I also must say, i have shot a lot, i consider myself to be above average with a pistol, and quite cocky when it comes to my abilities in general, but this is one guy i would never try to shoot against. He was shooting steel plates and just goofing off fired off 4-5 rounds scanning left to right, plates were farely large, about like a normal target would be, about 15yards out, but he fired quicker than i could have if i wasn't even aiming (honestly probably faster than my gun will even allow) hit every plate without hesitation. I plan on seeing a lot more of this guy and hope i can learn from him.

i was at sears today on a break and sold a router, a guy was asking what the difference was between the fixed base and plunge, and why he'd need one or the other, i watched him go through 3 salesmen all trying to bullchit him, and he'd tell them to go away because he knew they didn't know what they were talking about. After they all left i went up to him and explained it, he thanked me and picked up the plunge, i realized he thought i worked there cause i still had my gap lanyard on, i stopped him and let him know i didn't. It would have been funny watching them try to figure out who got my commission.

duct tape

i probably won't be able to make it to dave's tomorrow, i have way too much homework due, and i have to do laundry

ramos...kent? any other 1911 owners/shooters, what hammer style do you have and how do you like it? My standard spur had to be cut and now it's 100% useless and quite unsafe so i need another style that will work with a beavertail safety. I'm debating http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/...&t=11082005

Come East i want to badly. we are suppose to go in the spring to visit her cousin in NC, if said cosuin doesn't move to branson, mo before then. in any case, i'm going to have to go anyway, i've got to see the batcave, teh brother ramos and teh teddy bear dave. not too mention matt, and hopefully hear those mtms. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee lol no MTMs, boxes are sitting at home empty, i'm debating the TL setup but that's just because i'm getting bored and want to make something. Of course i need to be making the fiero run instead.

jeez i hope that's a 5page min and not max, with 5 sources that'd be kind of hard. especially with the one with 20slides and a 5min speech

I wish I had your budget. My favorite Neo and 7. Im getting a good deal on the tweets, i'll likely be able to sell them for more than i'm paying. Thats the only way i'm justifying it. In that case ifr you don't want them, I might. I already called dibs i just looked at the links..you need to go smack yourself for ever thinking about going with a passive set, those = teh sex

so paul kittinger e-mailed back and said basically exactly what neil(? devildriver) said. A better crossover would work but they sound good the way they are.

no this is paul kittinger.... he had someone else do the crossover for him

ok so guy e-mailed me back about the TuLines... " The overall sound of the TuLines is very good, in all modesty, but because the RS52 dome midrange has a large flange diameter and both woofers are running off the same crossover to the midrange, the integration of the four drivers isn't quite as good as one would want, and it would have been better if this had been designed as a 3-1/2 way instead of a 3-way where the lower woofer would have only been helping out with BSC and the lowest frequencies" wtf does he mean? one rs180 is putting out a different sound, and needs BSC or that the midrange needs it?

http://www.quarter-wave.com/Gallery/Gallery.html i'm digging the TuLines maybe that's what i should do instead of MTMs since i didn't like the seas tweet. the guy hasn't e-mailed me back though, hopefully he'll be more than happy to give me specs

i need to find someone with the capibility to polish stainless steel....or just buy a setup and polish the 1911 myself

never heard them, i just like the greater potential for midbass from a 7

i'd definately go that route, but that's just me

very nice, upload the pics here so we can see them.

you can't fit 6.5s or 7"s in the exploder?

fudge, bad news on top of bad news, i need a pucking beer but i have to start on my homework and take home test. i really don't need this stress right now, but when something goes wrong in the family, who do you call? meeeeeee
