  1. Most people run 20-22”. Some like a little short. Some longer. It’s a matter of personal preference.
  2. The most reliable and most competitive shotgun for Wild Bunch is the Winchester Model 12. Takes no parts to have it hold 6 rounds. Most are quite smooth and reliable as is. You don’t need 2-3 like with a 97. A myriad of 1911s available for Modern category and a number for Traditional. Wild Bunch is more a game of equipment reliability and quality ammo than cowboy. The .45 ACP ammo needs to be consistent and 100%.
  3. Very nice gun! Would love to get my hands on one of those!
  4. There, Cardboard! I fixed it for you. It’s legal now.
  5. No, a gold bead is not, nor ever has been, legal for Traditional. And yes, Traditional sight requirements have been constant. At least since 2009. I don’t have the rules from that era handy but they’re pretty much exactly as they are written today.
  6. Well, you’d be wrong, too. See my post above. And reread the rule book. It says military STYLE blade sights and it specifically mentions the Harrison Design and 10-8 rear sights.
  7. In cowboy, Pale Wolf Brunelle likes to call it RO3. It’s called common sense. Never had to put it that way in Wild Bunch until recently. It’s been perfectly legal to blacken the three dots on Traditional pistols since at least 2009, when I started shooting Wild Bunch. It was that way when I became an Ambassador in 2012. It was that way when I was invited to join the Wild Bunch Rules Committee in 2017.
  8. Not sure who told you that but they were wrong. It’s always been legal to blackout 3 dot sights.
  9. They get pretty crudded up. The plunger gets kind of sticky. I would remove the safety button, plunger and spring and give them all a good cleaning.
  10. Thanks for the kind words.
  11. Wilson frame and slide. Full length guide rod. All steel parts except trigger and stocks. 2 lbs 7.3 oz.
  12. Also, the carbon fiber mag tubes are liners inside the steel tube. It’s not seen.
  13. My modern gun started as a Wilson frame and slide. With all steel components and a full length guide rod, it’s well under the weight limit. I’ll weigh it later. I would check another scale. I’ve not weighed a Rock Island that heavy. Even guns with rails on it have been well underweight.
