    Hello from OHIO

    Just stopped in to say HI !!!!

    Just picked up the new Colt (UMAREX)1911-22. I'm planning on using this as a trainer for my 12yr.


    I'm looking forward to getting back into shooting !!!

    Welcome, let us know how the new 22 shoots. Let us know how much fun you and your son had as well.
    Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.

    Well we put a couple hundred rounds thru the gun today. CCI's work great, not a single failure in 200 rds. Federal Lightnings on the other hand "SUCK" never was able to get the gun to cycle using them, they do work well in the H.S. 9 shot revolver my grandad gave me eons ago.


    My boy was super excited, not sure which he'd rather shoot the Colt or the HS, but he's already asking when we can go again.

    The gun performed well, I was able to get 12 shots in a 3 1/2" circle off hand @ 25 ft.
