Ok. I am in need of some AimPoint red dots. We need two of them. They must be a T2, H2’s or Comp M5’s. The reason being we need to magnify them 6x so the dots need to work zoomed in. So H1’s or T1’s won’t work. If you only have a single Aimpoint you wish to trade? We can …
Why the HK ProMags Don’t Work
Like a mini fellow VP nine owners the idea of a 17 round flush-fit Magazine is seductive and imminently appealing. So it was with great interest that I purchased the aftermarket 17 round magazine made by ProMag. These are billed as working in the HKVP9 and the HK P30. After some analysis and testing, it has become obvious that these …

Folded Rifle with Suppressor
Reason number 600 why I enjoy the GRS Ragnarok chassis. With the suppressor still attached and a full length barrel, I can fold the stock and still get it into the drag bag. Bet that’s never been done with a Blaser before? Sincerely, Marky www.John1911.com “Shooting Guns & Having Fun”
POTD – M4 Carbine Seen in Idlib
There is a very interesting UK based Twitter account that focuses solely on weapons being used and for sale in the world’s war zones: Calibre Obscure (Twitter handle — @calibreobscura ) It is run by a single person, but his ability to find info on local weapons is an open source wonder. So it was no surprise when I saw …
POTD – Manurhin MR88
Centerfire Systems in Kentucky sent out an e-mail this week blowing out their Manurhin MR88 revolvers. For those not familiar, the MR88 is a French 38 Special, 6-shot DA/SA handgun. As I understand, it was developed in conjunction with Ruger. I’m not really certain about the particulars, but at some point the frames were made by Ruger and the barrels …
Chasing Function – Bushnell TRS Issues

Battery Falls Out of Bush Hog
I have hinted on social media that we’ve been having some significant issues with the DR Bush Hog. And before winter sets in, I am inclined to film a, “video review” of it. But I wanted to share this tidbit first. After a few weeks of waiting for the deck to be fixed (again), I decided to do a test-cut …
Buy Magazines Now
So you think Trump won’t lose? You think the democrats can’t win? You are 100% sure that nothing will happen with gun control during this season of Congress? Great. I hope so too. But if you aren’t sitting on at least 100 magazines right now? When the getting is good? And the Trump-Slump is in full effect? You’re a damn …
The Best Manual Of Arms?
What is the best manual of arms? My advice is to master “one kind” first, and only then revaluate and grow from there. Only then can you decide for yourself what works good, better and best. Marky www.John1911.com “Shooting Guns & Having Fun”
Tank Trap Barricade?
I’ve been seeing these on the internet. Mostly at rifle matches. Gets me thinking. Maybe we need one? Is there a standard size for these traps? I mean for shooting and training. Not defending the Maginot Line. Sincerely, Marky www.John1911.com “Shooting Guns & Having Fun”
RSC-1917 Semi-Automatic Rifle
Saw a French Model 1917 Semiautomatic Rifle / RSC-1917 in the rack at Cody. Took some up close pics for reference. The RCS is on our to-buy list. We just need to find one at the right time. Last I looked, RIA had one sell for $5463.00, which isn’t that bad. Keep your eyes peeled for us, OK? …
EP145 – Sheriff of Baghdad – Carbine Class AAR
Ep145 of the John1911 Podcast is gong to be a little different. Last week I had the chance to attend a John “Shrek” McFee / Sheriff of Baghdad 100 yard carbine course. Should be pretty straight forward, right? Well…not so fast. Without getting too deep in the woods, let’s just say I wasn’t really prepared to shoot to the same …
Blaser BD14 Bockdrilling
Ok. Some of you may be asking, “What in the heck is a Bockdrilling?” Easy. It’s a single shotgun, and 2 rifle barrel setup. I thought this one was kinda neat since it had some pretty practical calibers involved. A 20 gauge. A 308. And a 22 Hornet. If you think about it? That’s a combination that get’s quite a …
