    I recently bought a full size Sig 1911 Elite in SS. I'm looking for tritium fiber optic night sights for it. Sig says they don't sell them but the rear dovetail is a standard Novak cut. Brownells says they don't have anything that fits. Really? Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

    I have been using this new tool called the Gripwrench and I thought I'd show it off. I use it on my 1911 that has a very tight bushing to slide fit. When I take my slide off, I use this new tool to haul out my bushing instead of using the barrel to impact it out. I always make sure the barrel is...

    I have two sets of nearly new sights for sale 1) Original Sig Night sights. 2) XS Big Dot Tritium. About half price seems fair so asking 60.00 US per set or 100.00 US for both. I will take them to the shipper but you pay all shipping. Thanks burchsc

    Just picked up my first 1911, the new Nightmare, and I'm having an issues with I think the mag. When the mag is loaded up with 8 rounds it won't lock into the gun, it feels like it's hitting something. If I lock the slide back the mag will then lock in but slide jams up with the first round when...

    I had a question regarding federal law when it comes to individuals under the age of 21 transporting a handgun to and from a gun range. I am from Washington State and State law says those individuals are permitted to transport and shoot a handgun at a range, so long as the handgun is in a...
