We have paired down to three. Loco Poco Lobo shoots a Colt Series 70 and I shoot a Springfield Mil Spec. Also have a Springfield RO just in case either one of wants to shoot modern. Happy New Year!!!! Nawlins Kid

Welcome!! Nawlins

JJ, I'm glad that this post is helping you and hopefully others. Nawlins

At 6’4 I have large hands with long fingers. To the op, you might want to also ask about trigger length in your survey as they also play a part in how well or poorly you can operate your 1911. So let's add in long or short trigger . Also how about large or small hands. I'm think this could be good information for new shooters. Nawlins

I have read that for shooting one hand ( traditional ) the 1911 should have a flat MSH. Nawlins

A little survey on which type ( flat or ached) of mainspring housing that is on your WB 1911 's and your reason for your choice? Nawlins

Loco Poco Lobo and I would like to congratulate Renegade Roper and her crew for putting a very good NY State Match. The match had 60 + shooters. The stages where fast and challenging. Looking forward to next year's match!!!!! Nawlins Kid

I would like to thank Renege Roper and her committee for on putting on a very good NY state WB match. The stages were well written,. They very competitive but also written in a way that whatever the skill level of the shooter they were able to shoot the stage!!!! Looking forward to next year (hopefully without the Chinese virus) so that King Cuomo will not limit the match to 50 shooters. Nawlins & LPL

Howdy, Are there any local clubs around Philadelphia PA. shooting WB matches? Nawlins

Thanks, looking forward to seeing the both of you!!! See you soon. Nawlins

I just purchased this from E- Bay and it works great for loading the 1911 mags.. LPL likes it a lot especially now that we are loading 7 in the mag!!! RangeTray “Thumbless” Magazine Speed Loader for the 1911 .45 Single Stack Mags It’s the fifth one down on the page at $ 12.45 Go to their website and watch the video on how to use it and they also have loaders for different pistols I'm not affiliated or get any compensation from Range Tray.

It was our pleasure to come down to teach the class. Speaking of snow we are finally getting some rain today which should melt any remaining snow that we have. Looking forward to seeing you and rest of the shooters in the class in Oct. at the Mason-Dixon. Nawlins

We had a great bunch of folks taking the class from three different states. So congratulations to all the new Wild Bunch RO certified range officers. Nawlins

Howdy, We still have room for more students for the WB RO class. Nawlins

Does your club have time before or after have time to let folks shoot some WB stages? Nawlins

They put on a great match and their hospitality is second to none!!!!! Nawlins

I would like to congratulate Roy Cassidy and the Circle K Regulators for putting on a great match. Sixty one shooters had fun and challenging stages to shoot. I'm looking forward to next year's match. Great Job!!!! Nawlins

And thank you Roy for putting on one heck of a match!!! Nawlins

It's in the August edition. I purchased mine at the Tractor Supply store. They have stores in a lot of different states. Nawlins

It supposed to be the new edition that just came out. I called around here and was told they are expecting it by the end of the week. Nawlins

WB is now featured in a national magazine. This past April at the New York WB State match a writer from the magazine came to match to write a article on WB. He came both days taking pictures and interviewing the shooters. When I had my conversation with him he told it would be a very positive article and it was. Two thumbs up for American Cowboy Magazine for featuring one of the best shooting sports around. Nawlins

Allie, I use a piece of blue painter tape on the stock. Since I shoot a hammered SxS for cowboy the blue tape tells me its the model 12. Nawlins
