For the non-QPs: What is "wrong" with this weapon?

For non-QPs. Sheesh, failure to follow. :D

You know, I jumped the gun...saw that little bit late. :D

I got rid of mine clear the quote and it didn't happen.

I see nothing wrong with it, seeing it's probably a weapon for a left handed person.

As with these ....

2nd pic shows a 1911 for a lefty (top) and a 1911 for normal people. :D

I also want to add ....

I do agree with Old Dog New Trick, in that it is cocked while on display .... which is a bad thing. ;)


(but it could be on safe. Tough to tell, seeing it's a lefty and the safty is on the other side.)

"Probably". Way to take a stand. :D

But what is it?

Is this a left handed 1911? It looks to me the magazine release, slide release, and thumb safety appear to be on the right side of the gun. Also the ejection port is on the left side. Was there something else wrong?

Yep. For me, there's nothing wrong with this pistol, hence the quotes around "wrong". I've owned and shot it for about 28 years now. :lifter

Well, I didn't want to offend.
You know those leftys aren't in their right state of mind ..... oh, wait a sec.... errrrr ..... nevermind. :D

Working on the "bonus" points now. :munchin

One of those matched sets (left and right handed) would be a nice gift for any "Winner"

Yeah, but now the lefty version is worth more than my mortgage payment. :boohoo

But I still shoot it! :lifter

Maybe I can send you a fired round with the left hand twist to the rifling? :D

I know I could win some bets out of the guys at the shooting range with that one. They would probably say that I found it at a joke shop...

It's the only 1911 I've ever owned. Since they made it for me (so to speak), never needed another one.

Do you have a left handed holster that matches that nice piece of history?

All of my holsters are left handed, but come to think of it I do need a new holster for the Randall.
