What is my 45 auto ammo worth

[DadSmith]

Preference. The 1911's are in name only but thats just me.

I just dont like the ergonomics.

I've got to say I now own 2 1911's and I just love the ergonomics and the way they point. JMB knew how to build firearms.

Same here, mine stays with me some times 12 to 16 hours a day. Its accuracy far out shines my M9.

Some will say capacity is lacking, but that is not an issue when you train, besides extra mags are always on board.

About the sigs is it a preference or function issue?

I would say the only thing I don't like about the Sig Ultra compact 1911 is that the trigger is so easy to shoot compared to a Ruger. Barely any effort is required to pull the trigger. I'm too twitchy to have something so easy to shoot.

In my opinion, with a Ruger, there is no way to accidentally ever shoot yourself or someone else. For someone to pull a Ruger trigger they have to mean to pull the trigger.

With a Sig it's a whole different story. I could see someone accidentally shooting themselves or someone else with a Sig because of the lack of effort that is involved in firing it.

Guns like this are for pros. Not noobs like me.

Then you would love the triggers in my 1911's.....

Is yours a series 70 or 80?

Trigger Discipline: Keep Your Finger Off the Trigger!

It's important to keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to actually fire the shot. While it may sound easy to do, “finger discipline” may be one of the more difficult safety rules to make a habit. Read these tips on how you can make sure your finger is always where it's supposed...

You could give the gun buyer the option on all, some or none of the ammo. If there is any ammo left, bumpa da thread and away you go.

New seems to be around 875.00 for your Sig right now. Depending upon upgrades.

One of the 1st things I teach anyone at the line.
I have sen people who spend time with guns have the crappiest trigger discipline.

A fellow Ingo member sold me 2 boxes of 45 FMJ for 50.00

A fellow Ingo member sold me 3 boxes of 45 FMJ for 150.00 a while back.

Sorry, that was wrong. Please forgive my senior moment there.

I went to the Kokomo show over the weekend. I had a sign about the ammo. I had a dealer offer me $35 a box so I took it. He gave me $455 for 650 rounds or 70 cents a round, his idea.

I was quite happy with the deal because I had been thinking if I didn't sell it I would offer it for 55 cents a round. It pays to be patient.

I only saw two Colts like I was looking for and both were way overpriced for my liking.

But I did see a girly looking AR that I liked. My friend let me shoot his and now I definitely want one.

I don't know, how could I tell?

Firing pin block is present on a series 80, from what I am told trigger is not as smooth on a series 80.

Yes- quite savvy. Looking forward to your girly AR purchase or build.
