I fired my first 1911 tonight....

Yeah, it was floating around the forums a few months back.

 

[dist1646]

He was talking about the slide locking back on an empty mag and "slingshoting" or "power-stroking" the slide to bring the first round of a fresh mag into battery, which are common methods of combat reloading

I thought that is what he was talking about but it doesn't make the mag release a slide release. My drill instructor did his job well.

Has anybody ever seen this?

Its a double barreled 1911. There's a video of the guy firing it on there too. Anyone know if these were ever produced?

Been covered before.

And it's a true abomination in the eyes of a 1911 purist, purchase of one is punishable by burning at the stake.

I figured as much, on both comments.

Anyone ever fire one? Looks stupid.

I don't know of anyone that's fired one, much less held one in person.

I see the 3822 (aka - the abomination) in the same light as the double 870 - 'Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.'

You could probably just tape 2 1911s together

Why?

You have 2 hands...

Good point.


Now if you'll excuse me, I have an appointment with a couple Glock 19s and some gorilla glue.

I have a great idea for a new CCW.

They beat me to it.

.....As for the video, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

Interesting but hideous. See how wide the front grip was? I bet it has terrible ergonomics. No checkering there either. Gimmicky.

 

[Kuya Relli Boy]

I don't want to.

 

[defygravity]

Lol.....kinda looks like the guy in the video!!!!

The .45 is my favorite round, especially in the 1911, but I would like to have one in .38 Super. That is a bad ass round.

What the hell is that abortion? SIG... "When It Counts"... buy something else.

Now that's funny.

OR, the judge could impose a mandantory lesser sentence, discharging both barrels while tucked inside the front of the guilty party's pants (goodby junk).

I can take a razor sharp cutting instrument to my junk, but it doesn't mean I should. Wait a minute, that was done some 55 years ago. Oh, nevermind.

But I won't do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea, the .38 super is an exclusion to the no-no's of a 1911.

Yeah never owned one but from what I've read pretty devastating though inaccurate.

 

[BradMacc82]

I think the majority of us know about that sharp instrument being taken to our junk, thankfully I was too young to remember that.

Got to shoot a Coonan .357 Mag 1911 again today, that's a nice soft shooter, JMB would definitely approve of it. Palm sized group's were easily achieved.


Lou - that punishment could be applied, but I think the worst one would be a weekend tied over a saw-horse, pants around the ankles, with Clandestine as the director of 'activities' for the weekend.

Almost as bad as a 1911 in 22 cal - talk about neutering a gun.

I would get a 38 super or even a 9mm in a new york second.
Now mine you I am talking about a good quality 1911 NOT a POS.
If I had a extra frame I would get a Marvel conversion which is 22 and will out shoot most other 22s.
