Best place for parts

BamaBowTie · 09-20-2007, 08:51 PM

Ok folks, where do you go for all your 1911 needs? I ordered a Brownell's catalog three weeks ago and it STILL isn't here. So what's your favorite place to shop?

Brownells or Midway USA. There are a lot of parts available directly from the specialty manufacturers too like Wilson Combat, Ed Brown, Cylinder and Slide, Les Baer, etc.

Brownells has the most parts. Midway has a lot. Numrich comes to mind.

MidwayUSA - Shooting Supplies, Reloading, Gun Parts, Ammunition, Rifle Scopes & Airguns works why wait for a catalog

MidwayUSA. I know some people don't like them, but it's pretty much the only place I shop online for parts and ammo and stuff. My C&R dealer discount doesn't hurt either!

Brownell's.

CDNN sometines has a good selection, just bought a bunch from them that have yet to arrive. There's Numrich too for every part imagineable when no one else has what you need.

This is only true when you live in The USA.
When I try to order parts I'll have to stick with Brownells or some little shops that will send to Europe (and only if it's below $100) because of export limitations.
