Let's just say it is on extended loan for a good long while!

Now I need to try and schedule some range time with it. Grandpa called it his Phillipino 1911. He loves to let me know it is supposed to be a copy of the GI issue one he had while on his European vacation in the 1940's.

I already reload .45, this is my first 1911 but not my first .45. Actually I reload and cast bullets for the .45 so I am very self sufficent in that way. So primers and powder is all it takes for me to crank out $3 boxes of .45 Auto.

I have probably 2k loaded right now so all I need to do is take a heavy bag to the range and bring back a much lighter bag!
