About 1/3 of the way into it right now. Good read very informative for anyone interested in the 1911.

Im pretty sure that if Flipper doesnt like something, theres about a 95% chance I will.

 

[FLIPPER 348]

I like stock 1911A1s. How do you feel about those??



There are MUCH better books out there than the turd in question.


........ones that don't use the word patootie in captions!

 

[Mr. Gekko]

Damn it! That's twice!!!!

Third time for me in a week....

Got a PM the fisrt time (thanks cableguy:rant, I then found the hidden link :steamed:, and then I clicked on Quacks "amazon" link.

Flipper what books do you recommend? I just finished reading this one and am looking forward to reading some more about the 1911s and guns in general.

Fixed it for ya. :thumbsup:

 

[thecableguy]

I guess that does make sense. :rofl:
But seriously if any one has a good gun related book recommendation let's hear it.

I don't hate any of them. The good ones can be expensive but well worth the cost and there will be no gunshop or 'collector' banter.

For startes I recommend:
http://www.paperbackswap.com/Government-Models-Development-William-H-Goddard/book/0917218248/

You will learn more here than anywhere else.

this one is spendy but well worth it:
http://www.amazon.com/Collectors-Guide-Colt-Service-Pistols/dp/0963397133



this will be my next one:
http://www.amazon.com/Model-1911A1-Military-Commercial-Pistols/dp/1882391462/ref=pd_sim_b_1


and when I have the extra cash on hand
http://www.amazon.com/Colt-45-Gover...=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299473199&sr=1-2

I only read the captions but I can tell this is 4 steaming coils on the turd-o meter. It has the feel of hanging out in a gunshop.

http://www.amazon.com/1911-First-Years-Patrick-Sweeney/dp/1440211159

The shipping via USPS Priority Mail was $12.87 as the turd is so heavy. If anybody wants this book PayPal me $13 and I will ship right away.

I'll take you up on that offer. PM me. I'll be glad to send you $13 for it shipped to me.

 

[FLIPPER 348]

to late, the turd was paypaled for $13 yesterday and will ship tomorrow to a lucky GTer.

Once I get this limited edition book, I'll trade it for that FUGLY new Wilson you just got. :whistling: :tongueout:

 

[MD357]

Somehow I am more confused than before I asked the question :rofl:

What are you referring to? Did I miss something totally. :dunno:

He's belittling Bac.

Which is kind of ironic considering the stuff that's he's posted on this forum.

 

[FLIPPER 348]

The turd of a 1911 book is on it's way via USPS Media Mail, should be there by the 14th.

When it comes to 1911 books there are folks who like Jeopardy and folk who like Wheel of Fortune.
