Nick and Eli Talk Colt's Pocket Pistols... Again
It's really no secret, the boys in the Sales and Marketing Department for ACW love themselves a pre-war Colt's Pocket pistol. Nick just picked up a Colt's Model 1908 Pocket Hammerless, .380 ACP in Vegas at the Antique Arms Show, so today it will be shot for the first time in his possession. Eli, strangely enough, didn't have any of his Pocket Colt's with him, as his gun case for traveling to Texas was full of marketing guns. Regardless, enjoy the ramblings of two pre-war Pocket Pistol Enthusiasts, and remember to carry "cocked and locked"!

By the end of the Great War (the first time we kicked Germany’s ass), the Colt’s Model of 1911 was cemented into the history books as “America’s Gun”. Even as the revolver clung to popularity, the men who were forced to “live by the gun” soon realized the Colt’s .45 was THE premier choice in handguns. By this time, Colt had commercialized their automatic success, dubbed the “Government Model” t...

    I would like a 9mm for capacity, I’m very use to 3-3.5in barrels so I stay in the sub compact side of firearms, I went to a range where I can hold a 1911 in a commander size and they put it in a holster for me to put it in my wasit band see the size difference and it’s a little notice. That being said I want 4.25 instead of the defender size as I hear there’s issues with them but I do like the staccato cs as it hold more as it’s a double stack. Which should I choose??

    How has the reliability of a 5’ prime in 9mm been. I have several 1911’s in 45ACP 5’ ranging from colts to ED Brown and Wilson combat. I really want to try a 5’ 9mm but am hesitant to try one due to the reliability and magazine fussiness I’ve read so much about.

    A 1911 has not more safety features than a glock… A Glock got 3 safety features The firing pin only can reach the primer when the trigger is pulled, it cant go off without no reason and how should the trigger go off by itself????? On the 1911 the hammer can fall down or get caught somewhere and slip and it just shoots.. typical oldheads no smart men carries a 1911 over a glock

    Sorry Eli but this is historically inaccurate and absolute nonsense. The Germans and the Japanese influence, especially the Japanese influence, didn't even match what had been some of their historic highs in the past. On top of that the idea that it was going to be world domination is just silly, France and England were major powers that fought with each other for centuries, somehow world domination never happened and it wasn't going to with the Nazis either. Besides, America is logistically impossible to invade

    Lol safest no way. Is it a series 70 ouch drop tht bitch see what happens. Is it a series 80 if so u got a garbo trigger thus y even have it. Not to mention all thoes safetys can also keep u from firing the pistol in unconventional shooting positions. There is a reason most switched away from a 1911. Does it work ya sure. So does an m1 grand. But would u really use that over and ar15 or light weight ar10 absolutely not. Tht is unless u like it for nostalgia. Wich lets b honest is the only reason to get a 1911. Other than that heavy usually more expensive. Requires more lub and more parts more time invested in training. And on top of it all lets say u get a steccato and do have to use it. Well better order anothe 4k pistol cuz the cops arent giving u that one back. And as it being used as a quote un quote duty pistol, if it gets dropped in a scuffle that could cost an inocent life.
