BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
A new one ...

I love the 1911's. My favorite is a Para P-14 limited with a little work (didn't need much)
What size targets and at what range are you shooting, your statement dosn't tell much, could be an archery target at three feet.:dunno:

Hi Mitch,
I can tell you and I are going to be great friends on this site (defense/offense weapon post).
The statement refers the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board qualification course of fire. From the 7, 10 and 25 yard lines - 9 ring is 8"x11.5", the 10 ring is 4"x6" and the X ring is 2"x3".

Not bad shooting at all, and you forgot to mention it is a timed course no doubt, with forced reloads and maybe some off hand shooting as well?Hi Mitch,

I'm a desk jocky now, but in my day I owned some bragging rights. If you look back in my old posts you'll see some other rants on tactics and such.
That's the one ... one of the best out of the box weapons I've owned. No tuning, upgrading or smithing required. My buddy that I mention up front carries the Pro model, but that piece runs right at $2,500 - didn't want to lay out that much and the Operator works just fine.
