Morning all...

Coffee, please.

Lots of rain last night. Huge limb came down a few blocks away. Someone’s car stopped it from damaging the road.

Spend all your coffee money on a Prodigy?

Went with a cuppa tea this morning.

 

[mcapo]

Well just finished cleaning the Prodigy and I'm going to be ordering a tool less guide rod ASAP. The 2 piece rod was finger tight when I went to loosen it and that was after just 50 rounds.

Edit: Just ordered a guide rod from Atlas Gunworks.

Good move...never understood why SA uses a 2 piece guide rod. Maybe a good reason exists.....

Never understood the issue. I've had multiple 1911's with two piece guide rods and never had any problems...

Well...I am serious operator and my guns need to be able to take rapid fire, heavy round counts, not jam in the mud and maintain enough reliability to function after fording a creek.....

If you bought that, call me. I've got this bridge...

Good morning guys! #2 cup of coffee.

How-dee !

The double stack reminds of the Para Ordinance P14. From some of the Q&A it looks like the P14 mags work with it.
Unfortunately I had one of the P14's from when they were selling frame kits (before they did whole guns) over 3 decades ago and didn't realize the smith I bought it from wasn't particularly talented.

That one and one other bad example burned me on 1911's for a long time.

Those Para frame builds can be done right…

Good morning y’all

I'm sure they can. The smith I bought from wasn't what I'd consider a gunsmith /gun builder now that I know better.

You definitely did help me with finding it. So I guess when I assume room temp you do have dibs.

Careful....make too many promises like that around these parts and someone might disconnect your battery.
