Some really nice pistols here! This is one of my favorite threads here, really like seeing everyone's different styles.

Learning how to break down and assemble a 1911 without fumbling or scratching only took... 20-30 times lol. Not like my Glocks but it's getting easier every time. The first 1911 I had was cruder and took more force to break and assemble, this Atlas Titan is a lot smoother and easier, everything drops right in but locks up tight.
Someone commented that shooting a light trigger masks poor technique and that hit home because I have that nice 2011 up above... and it shoots great, I got a lot better with it and have been shooting a lot more. But that comment stuck with me and they had a point so I started taking my home defense Glock 19 to the range every time instead of just once in a while... starting shooting 50-100 rounds per session with that heavy crappy Glock trigger and slowly made progress. I'll never shoot it as well as the gamer pistol but it really helped me to dig in and work on learning how to shoot the Glock, and it helped me shoot the race pistol better too.
So today I started pimping it out lol. I know not to put money into Glocks but the Taran G19 carry magwell really does improve the grip for me. I have XL hands and was using the large beavertail backstrap but tried it without any backstrap and found I can grip it better, which surprised me. The stapling is kind of like the Taran custom Glocks, not quite as skillful but not embarrassed by it. Pretty happy with it right now.
Going to add a Vickers mag release (cheap) not sure if I will mess with the trigger, I would like it cleaner and shorter. To me there is a too much take up and a gritty break.

I ended up putting a 3.5lb disconnect on my G23 helped some and I have steadily improved with the otherwise stock trigger. I also replaced the spring and guide rod with the tungsten one and it definitely changed the way the pistol recoiled. It feels more like its pushing into my hand now than "snapping" up at the muzzle. I too have that same Streamlight. Nice butcher Block desktop BTW! I would like to get one at some point.
Those are twenty year old Grainger workbenches that cost $199.99 for 3x6' with steel bases. Probably double that now, can't kill them, I have four left over from my business.
I had more money than patience so I put in a Apex kit, it is 4.5# but better in every way and has a nicer straight blade. At this point I can see that if I don't do matches or need bragging rights I could be happy shooting the G19 only. I love the 2011 but it is kind of overkill for a duffer like me.
Hah! I thought I was the only one that marked my 10 1911 magazines with designs to know which ones are newer,better or shit and crap..wow, there's another smart dude out there?? hehehe

Finally got my first revolver, a Smith & Wesson M&P R8. This gun makes me look good on how crazy stupid accurate it is. The shots were taken at 25 feet standing, DA only.
