New From Smith & Wesson: SW1911 Performance Center Enhanced Action Bobtail Frame

I like big butts and I cannot lie. OK, well, rounded ones. On a 1911. For concealed carry. Which I’m not gonna do ’cause I get all hinky about that frame-mounted safety thing. And the  3.5 to 4lbs. (in this case) single-action trigger. It’s not that I don’t trust myself to maintain trigger finger control in a defensive gun use. It’s just that I don’t trust myself to maintain trigger finger control during a defensive gun use. If you know what I mean. For those of you paying attention (thanks!), this new gun is virtually same Smith & Wesson Performance Center 1911 as the one we featured Wednesday, only with a shorter barrel (4.25″ vs. 5″), a less catchy grip and a Rolex and class ring in the gun porn glamor shot. Speaking of which, it has to be said: SW1911 Performance Center Enhanced Action Bobtail Frame sounds dirty. In a good way. Your choice, $1539.

  1. Political debate is pointless. Cruz could slam down Hillary with all the might and righteousness of the irrefutable truth and Hillary supporters would call him a bully or a liar and Cruz supporters would think Hillary a shill.

    Debates are little more than choir preaching. I’ve never met anyone who’s opinion of a candidate was swayed by a debate performance. Besides, what a candidate says one night under the hot lights doesnt trump or negate years of past statements or a voting record.
