Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

New SA

Very nice! I had a buddy recently pick up an earlier (blued model), lightly used SA Loaded & it's a great pistol.

Well I guess I could have mentioned this last night...I have put over 40 rounds down range....I have only shot two other 1911 framed guns...a Kimber 9mm (not a 9mm fan) and another SA Milspec? it was olive drab in color...and shot great...but mine...is by far a better shooting/handleing pc...no DOUBT...wonder if it is cause this'un is mine..lol...I am now lookin at reloading data and such to get a good reload that will be easy on the pocket as well as the shooter..Thanks for the comments about it...I picked up another hand gun yesterday afternoon....it's a S&W 22a...shot it a good bit yesterday afternoon/evening...between me and my two boys...we put over 125 rounds down range....loaks of fun...

I had a Loaded parkerized also. After I swapped the FLGR for a G.I. plug and guide I loved it. I used to have a 22A Smith as well.
