Well, I went to the shed to load up some 9mm rounds, and dropped an empty primer box into the trash can. I looked and wondered what my Blackhawk holster container was doing in the can. I dug it out and guess what was in the container...... I must have thrown it away when I was still under the influence of those hospital drugs....I finished flaring and priming my brass and then came in and changed to the medium beaver tail....now to go to the range and see.
The reason I wanted to try the smaller size is about two years ago I bought a used Gen 4 model 17. It didn't come with anything but on magazine. It also shot like a laser. And I got to thinking that all of the 1911s I had did too, and they have thinner grips. Yup, the dim bulb glowed a bit brighter.... and as I'm medically retired, I have plenty of time if I feel up to it to head to the range.....
