LaRue 1911 history ... bet you didn't know. ;-) (Page 8 of 11)
| As much as I would LOVE to have a LaRue 1911 I think they are more focused on getting our boys in the sand box the stuff they need. Saddly that puts a 1911 on the rear burner. Hopefully one day this crazy old world will settle down and LaRue can get around makin a few 1911's. Until then I've heard LaRue's all about killin bad guys! |

ETA - Oh, and LT hammers, LT sears, et al. Mark...have you talked yourself into it yet? |

If you got privileges on lightfighter ...
Peer inside a 1911 time capsule recently uncovered ... "Can adding 15-20 year old parts make 1911s even more awesome?"

I am holding off on the purchase of my next 1911 until after SHOT. If no news by then, I'll trade the bones and scalps for something else.
ie: Please Mr. LaRue, say it's true. |

AHEM Following its success in trials, the Colt pistol was formally adopted by the Army on March 29, 1911, thus gaining its designation, M1911 (Model 1911). It was adopted by the Navy and Marine Corps in 1913. Originally manufactured only by Colt, demand for the firearm in World War I saw the expansion of manufacture to the government-owned Springfield Armory... *cough* |
