New pistol choice dilemma

[Chewbacca7685]

OP stop

You need a Colt Single Action Army.
In .45 Colt
With ivory grips.
Be a Man among the little girliemons.

I think I need one of those as well.

I'm going against the wife's wishes and buying myself a new pistol for my birthday (Happy Birthday ME!).
Problem is I can't decide what caliber to buy OR which maker...
I'm drawn to a Rock Island double stack compact 45acp as I used to have one and it was a very nice weapon for the money (or instead of the money really).
I know it's not the best pistol, and that a 40 would probably be a better choice AND that the large amount of 9mm ammunition I have in the closet should drive me towards another 9, but keep thinking about that cheapo 45...

When I was in the throes of my double stack 45 era I finally decided on a Springfield Armory XD(M) with the 5.25" barrel.

A few years down the road I'm glad I made that choice. Mags are less expensive, it was easy to mount an optic on it, a Powder River Precision Extreme trigger kit gave it an awesome trigger that everyone who shoots it comments on.

Another option is American Classic. Link below. A friend of mine used to use one for competitions, and other than spring changes here and there, he said he didn't have any issues to speak of.

Tristar is the new importer from the Philippines , Eagle Imports was the previous.

I don't see a double stack 45 there.

Thought they used to make one.

Maybe I was just thinking of the 9 mil race guns

OP think of the style points with an SAA.

Polymer is so gauche,

Yea the 10mm is only 6 and change. That’s about the top I’d pay for an RI. That said, Kimber seems to have a bad reputation for their price point. A colt combat elite was my first 1911. Shoulda never sold it. Rosewood grips, black slide, stainless frame. If I see another one of those for a decent price I’ll sell my wife for it.

Can she cook?

Can she cook?

No. That’s why she only gets traded for the colt and not a nighthawk or something.

A colt? And she can't cook? Asking a lot. Would you consider a Taurus?

Shes a tiny Hispanic with big titties. I’m not going any lower than a decent smith. I already have a Taurus.

Sounds like she may be worth it.

Sounds like she can be worn concealed.

Pics or no deal.....I want to know what I'm trading for...

Well that went downhill fast.

Age, Condition, Warranty?

 

[easy rider]

Watch out, could be a blow up doll he got in Mexico.

Latina = grave danger. Do not approach!

We could always head over to the place mentioned in the other thread and open carry.

Why hasn't Chewbacca7865 posted pics of his new Colt SAA?

Is Chewbacca7865 a slacker?
