014 The “High-End” 1911

This week The ProArms Team tackles the “High-End” 1911 Pistol. You know which ones they are, the ones we all covet. Well. between us we managed to get together a bunch of them and review and discuss their virtues. After we recorded this episode we found out that the Morris Custom Pistol the we opened the show with now goes for $10,000 not the $6,000 we estimated it at.

Once again this episode is rich with links so I will post them all here:

Les Baer

Bar-Sto

Ed Brown

Clark Custom Guns

Colt

Guncrafters Industries

Dave Lauck

Morris Custom Pistols

Nighthawk

Springfield

Wilson Combat

In addition we talked about our Sabre Defense AR-15s that some of us seem to think are appropriate BBQ Guns.

Herman gives us a little post-election insight about supporting our Pro-gun organizations. They need our help and support now more than ever. Consider joining or extending your memberships in those national groups and find your local groups and join them if you are not a member already. The ones that Herman mentioned were:

National Rifle Association

Gun Owners of America

Second Amendment Foundation

Unified Sportsmen of Florida

The array Of 1911s we reviewed for this Podcast

004 Springfield XD-M, John Farnam

Our Producer Gail talks with John Farnam about his school, Defense Training International. some of his philosophy and the new Springfield XD-M Pistol. The conversation was recorded in May 2008 just before the new pistol debuted at the NRA show. We talked with John about the beginnings of his school and about an article on him in American Handgunner Magazine from 30 years ago by Mas. You can access that article here. Don’t know how long that link will be good for so if you want to see it you’d better go there soon.

Then some of the ProArms gang got together to talk about the Springfield XD-M pistol after putting it to the test on the range. Talking about the XD-M are Chris, Mike, John, Terri, Mas and Gail.

We’re working on our sound and changing our recording venues, this week you may hear some crickets in the background, just enjoy them.

We joined the Gun Rights Radio Network. We are a network of Pro-gun podcasts. Check out the link on the left side of the page and listen to, subscribe and support our fellow podcasters.

We talked about John shooting an IDPA classification with the Springfield XD-M, we posted that video with episode 003.

We documented some great groups with the XD-M. One addendum: the Black Hills brand 165 grain EXP ammo that Mas used to get that 25 yard group with four shots so tight, with three shots in one hole and one “called flyer,” is no longer being produced.
