I am a Blu Mag man, but I'd like to feel a pair of your Fishpaw's in a couple weeks.

I like the pancake style but with having had both shoulder joints replaced (joints disintegrated) a low slung holster was a serious consideration as I can't lift my shoulders high enough to draw quickly. Rob L to the rescue. With 3 belt slots his holsters can be worn cross draw. Perfect. Now the only problem is which gun gets leather first. Whenever someone asks about holsters on the 1911 forum I tell them about the Cuda and all the different ways it can be worn, including the Chesty Puller rig. I love when I catch them off guard with a product like Rob's. I have to remind them there are other single actions besides single action semiautos. They about went apoplectic when I suggested 255 gr WFN hardcast bullets for the 1911. They weren't familiar with the names John Taffin, Marshall Stanton or Veral Smith. Naturally, I had to relay what I learned here, like who makes a good quality holster for instance. ;D

I used them in the 1990s to shoot pins. After JT's article on the XD and heavy bulletts the desire was re-innited for that heavy bullet 45 acp combo- particularly for moose and bear use.

Marshall Stanton posted a load using his 255 gr WFN over 7.0 gr of AA No. 5 for 950 fps out of a 5" 1911. That would make a good woods bumming / hunting load for the 1911. Sort of like the Buffalo Bore load with a wider meplat. I installed a FireDragon dual action recoil reducer in my Milspec to handle the added recoil. It works well. |

Scott, I'll bring three Fishpaw begripped guns for you to shoot. The Fishpaw "Roper" has a different feel compared to the BluMagnum "Skeeter". Not night and day different, since they have similar bloodlines. The Fishpaws are longer legged and with skinnier waists...
... and Rob, I knew what he DIDN'T mean, but that was funny.
