    I just picked up a new 1911; a Coonan .357 magnum. Trijicon night sights; the standard dot in the front, but in the rear it is a horizontal line on each side. It came with a second recoil spring that allows me to shoot .38 special. I can not wait to get to the range to try this new one out.

    I saw it on the outdoor channel one day and had to order it. I took over a year for it to get delivered to my ffl. My understanding it is a small factory so the orders are extremely slow to get shipped out.

    That is really really sweet. Would love to have one.

    Question is, is it better than a glock as a fighting weapon? *DOH* *grin*

    Man, you know how many $389 Glocks you could have picked up for the price of that? Anyway, I just made up a holster design for that pistol, need to get with the owner to mold it up. It is going to be one big ass piece of leather.

    May I ask how much it set you back? It is a nice looking pistol. I like the fact you can use and still get 38 special ammo.
