You need to get a camera. Nice collection, you should go shoot them.

I was going to recommend foregoing the next gun & get a camera but Fuzz beat me to it. :laugh:
Or even a cell phone with a flash on it :D

Wait that is 13 guns - unlucky. HAVE to buy another one first :rules:

Helluva collection you have there :thumb:

Oh man, I'm drooling... I love Colts... Absolutely love them... And I agree, these need to be your first pics taken with your new camera.

Yeah, I've loved them since I was a kid. I've got 2 Colt Revolvers, no 1911's yet though. My first 1911 (and probably most if not all of the subsequent 1911's) will be a Colt. Love em.

I started to say, 'some Kimbers are okay', but then I realized, there are people who absolutely LOVE Glocks and I hate the way they feel in my hand. To each their own, so...I understand. Everybody has their own tastes. I lean toward the P series of Rugers too. Love em. They just 'feel' right in my hand. Of course, I was raised shooting them, too.
Awesome collection you got there.
If you ever decide to leave them to somebody in your will, please keep me in mind! hehehe

Very nice collection

To each their own as well. I can't stand springfields, don't really get into colts (mainly because I think colts are way too expensive to have labeling that looks cheap and cheesy on the slide, and springfields are just overpriced). I love Kimbers. Their Custom shop outshoot anything.

That being said, helluva collection. Just couldn't let you slight kimbers like that unchallenged ;).

I haven't had too much experience with Kimbers, I do love colts, and I'm also a little bit curious about the new Remington R1... I still love the look of the originial M1911.

Haha nahh dude, you have to realize when we post, many times most of us know each other and how we opine; we may sound serious, like if I made fun of Brian or Tony's Kimbers etc. but we're really JOKING.

None of us here are stupid enough to generalize one gun is ALL THIS or ONLY THAT. We're just HALF-joshing around, really haha

I shot a 17C for my CHL qualification. It was 8pm at night and completely dark except for the headlights behind me. And it was raining. The V flames made for a very fun time.

You always gotta keep in mind, this isn't BARF.COM. When we speak on different firearms, it means we actually have experience with them or own them. We aren't quoting some "industry professional" or "ballistics expert". We take our guns, go out there, and DO WORK by ourselves, then gather first hand data.

How many times have you heard "Glocks can't fail" or "Daniel Defense blah blah blah". Well there will be one of us that will tell you we have firsthand seen any one of those fail. If yours is great, go shoot it and have fun, no use bothering what some retard over the internet who has seen more Anime than time behind a firearm training tell you sh*t about what you own. :thumb:

Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.
The shooter will always matter more than the gear ever will.
Stop relying on others to do the work for you.

I don't mind glocks now that I know I have to shoot them like I shoot double action revolvers, using a six o'clock aiming position. I love their 20SF 10mm.
