Many time FTF is a result of ammo. Some ammo just doesn't like some guns and won't feed correctly. Find a kind your gun likes to eat and meets your ballistic demands and happy days are here again!
This new .45 would not be the ONLY gun for home protection. I do have other guns for that.
I used to shoot a lot with a buddy when he was in town and I always like to shoot his Colt .45. Ever since then I have had a .45 auto on the radar. Recently Cabelas was running a sale on the R1 for 599.00. For the money it seemed like a good way to scratch my .45 itch and I am a BIG fan of Remington shotguns.
I just don't want it to become one of those guns buried in the safe that provides no enjoyment for occasional shooting. Plus, at times it would be accessible to be used for home / car / boat / camper protection and if I have no confidence in it, buried in the safe it goes.
I hear you on the revolvers though. I can't disagree. Just trying to justify getting the .45.
They are fun to shoot, so there you go. :thumbsup:
