      1911 45 Club

      I get it. The drive and traffic is what’s been keeping me away from the westside. Funny, back in the day, we would drive 4 hours one way for a pistol match.

      Why Was Hip Shooting Ever a Thing?

      Watched a CGO shoot two G19’s at a B27 from 3 yards with 3 rounds and then spin the pistols and fire 3 more. Theatrical it was.

      Holster recommendations for 4 o'clock

      Straight cant. 9oz smooth leather with 9 oz smooth leather lining double stitched with 1 3/4 inch belt slots. Everything else is a compromise in my opinion. You will pay more for a rig like this but it will last you a lifetime through millions of presentations. If you carry it on a double...
