My firsth real gun was a colt m1911 pre a1, you know small sights,small safety lever,no cut near the trigger,long trigger, etc.
With some money I reblue it put a videky, had a trigger job and start shhoting the old mexican army course of fire (Tiro Mexicano de Defensa), I lear to shoot a handgun as it must tobe one hand or strong hand, since that I had several m1911a1 patter guns but sadly I had to sold them cause have one of these guns in .45 a´cp caliber is not posible but only the army or navy men can own them.

This was my fisrth and true love, I was 20 or around, this baby fits my hand like no other gun, it pointed like no other and plus it had a lot of punch even with ball ammo.

I really miss my 1911 guns, the last one was a National Match of around 1957-58, very reech deep blue, very tight and was gorgoreus, but having it sold it last year.

The federal law of firearms/ammo/explosives is very hard and represive here in Mexico, so I have to make up my mind and understand that never again I will have a m1911 cal.45 acp.

My current guns are .22 lr handguns and rifles a german wlether ppks in .380 acp and a couple of snubies in .38 spl.

Best Regards

Manny

Manny I just left you a message in the new member introduction section. You answered my question before you ever read it! About the 1911's that is to bad, can't you buy one in .38 super or 9mm?

 

[Manny]

45automatic man:mexican citizens can only posses (legally) in Mexico:

a) Handguns.-semiautomatcs in calibers not above .380 acp, revolvers in calibers not above .38 spl.
Forget about 9 mm, .38 super, .357 magie,.44,.45 etc. these are restricted calibers for army and navy use only.

b).-rifles.-only target,hunting or sporting ones.-forget asault tipe rifles no matter they are .22 lr.

c).-Shotguns any but barrels not below 24".

Best Regards.

Manny
Always a pleasure talking with you .
Your government is doing the same as ours . They can't control the bad guys so they make more laws against us good guys .
Too bad you can't handle that 1911 anymore .
You said you had to sell yours last year . Who would buy it if only the military can own it ? They already have guns . Are the rich people still able to own what they want because they can bribe the officials ?
Thanks
Mitch

Guy:the very very wealthy men and the policitians can owen what ever they want, they pay the goverment for this special favors the name of the game is Impunity.

Weird but all my m1911a1 colt pistols .45 acp were registered at the army but the last one.
So my pistols were owned by law I sold them to shooter felons the last m1911a1 I sold it to an exarmy man.
