Just thought I'd share a quick story of shooting satisfaction.
I'd been wanting to get my first 1911 for a long time. And I always knew I wanted it to be a Colt, something of quality, of pedigree, in .45, all-purpose...
A few weeks ago I finally picked up a new Colt Combat Commander XSE Stainless. I took it home, inspected it for a long time, handled it, cleaned it, oiled it, dry fired it... ordered a nice holster for it.
Today I took it to the range and finally fired it. A lot. WWB 230g FMJ, Independence 230g FMJ, Remington Target 185g FMJ, Gold Dot 200g +P JHP, Gold Dot 230g JHP... zero malfunctions.
And now I myself know the joy so many have shared in common here. And I want more!
