Why? I respectfully have to disagree Deacon, only 5 inch 1911s or 1911a1s should be allowed imo. It’s bad enough that modern 1911s [modern category] are even allowed. We are going to shoot a Wild Bunch/cas match in April. I’ll use my Marlin 1894, a Crazy Lee M12 riot and a 1911a1 AO 1911. Still don’t have my 1917 watercooled gas gun done yet. Always a fun shoot.
Give’em hell Pike.
My apologies, I read Wild Bunch and you’re talking Zoot. Apples and Brownings, totally different, you have to be dressed correctly to play in Zoot. Would love to get to your match. I suggested it at our last .38 snub revolver match [where we add a 2 inch to the handguns the shooter is using for 3 stages]. Afraid there was no real interest. I however do Zoot up.
