Why in the cornbread hell do manufacturers put those damned A2 front sight gas blocks on an AR with a flat top receiver?  I can't imagine they are any cheaper than a Picatinny rail block.  Dedicated casting vs small hunk of billet?  C'mon!

 

So that you can install and use a flip up rear sight ?  Not every one uses a red dot or scope.

Psh, cavemen maybe.  I kid!  I kid!  I can see that as an argument, but the chances of them lining up seem... iffy at best, to me.

My old AMT Hardballer has been serving me well for 30 years.

But I've replaced a few parts with better ones, and have done a lot of work to it to tighten it up.

They only go for $500-ish on GunBroker.

Always wanted a hardballer. Never found one when I had money. Now I can’t get one cuz California daddy state says no.

Kimbers are about 650-675 on sale the 2 tone ones(looks like a Colt Combat Elite) stainless fram black slide

really most Kimbers all the same to me just some cosmetic differences . seems tite and works.

 

theres a Para Ordnace at my firnds Gubstore and it a LDA(light doble action 1st shot single stack 45)

I dont know much about them but said wow a double action 1st shot 1911 but its 500$. They say you get what you pay for. Its a ealier gun as frame say made in Canada. Looks cast . Anybody know about Paras. I think Remington got them and shut them down or moved to remington lineup.

I heard double stack Rpara have feeding proplems.

 

anybody a 1911 expert?
