28 Round 1911 Snail Drum – $69.99 15 Round ProMag – $20.08 Several months ago I ran across a pretty cool product that resembles the old snail mag for the Luger 9mm pistol. It is a 28 round 1911 mag, so I figured I’d order it and see how it goes. Then I forgot I [...]

See a need, fill a need. That’s the foundation of American ingenuity.

I’d rather have a tool I can bring to the range and adjust it myself, and also have to help others who I see dealing with the same issue. Read More…
