Sedalia Dave Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 FYI a 1911 fits nicely in the same holster that you use for your SASS pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Burn Powder Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 Thanks Dave thats one less thing to worry about getting. Tougher finding a traditional 1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaconKC Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Look on page 4 and 5, if you already have a 1911, you may be able to run it under Modern. https://www.sassnet.com/Downloads/SASS WILD BUNCH Action Shooting Handbook Vers 15 3.5.21.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have and like a fool I sold it when I was young and dumb I have a Kimber with all the trimmings just wanted to go for the nostalgia of traditional. A man just can't own enough toys I figure.

I am on the lookout for another one just for that reason. https://www.americantactical.us/939/detail.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tater Head Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hi WBP, Springfield Armory has a quality 1911 with great sights. Three white dots that may or may not be allowed in local matches. Easy fix. Magic Marker or black electricians tape. Good luck in your search.
