Great information guys, thank you very much. It sounds like at least a few European countries allow greater freedoms than some of our states, Second Amendment notwithstanding. But we have other threads in which we can discuss those matters. Let's get back to our regularly scheduled programming (pics) on this one.
Here is my current pair of 1911's. Full sized Colt, Officer's Model sized Kimber. They both shoot 230 grain cast round noses or 200 grain cast semi-wadcutters equally well. My defensive load uses the 230 grain XTP from Hornady in a +P level load that touches 900 fps from the longer barrel. The stocks on the Colt are Goncalo Alves, a Brazilian hardwood that S&W used to use on some of their revolver grips.
