Welcome to CoolGunSite.com the USGI small arms and 1911 resource site

Welcome to CoolGunSite.com, a research site for collectors of USGI Small Arms.

Welcome to *www.CoolGunSite.com. This website is a repository of United States Government issue pistol, revolver, and long arms research, data, and conclusions that have been compiled by myself with the aide of other collectors who have graciously shared the fruits of their labors. It is my intention to constantly update, add-to, improve, and correct this website. I therefore solicit and encourage comments, corrections, elaborations, as well as contributions of new material. As of July, 2007 we get over 40,000 visitors a month at CoolGunSite.com. Check out our classifieds page, great way to get the word out if you have a 1911 pistol, parts or accessories for sale. Focus areas include military handguns, primarily the U.S. Government Issue (U.S.G.I) Model 1911/1911 A1 pistols and U.S.G.I. handguns which include pistols and revolvers dating from the years of 1840 to 1945. Besides collecting I also shoot the Model 1911A1 competitively in various styles of events. I am not a fire arms dealer, but I can legally purchase pre-1950 Military pistols anywhere in the U.S. of A., and I am always interested in hearing about original U.S. Military Pistols and Revolvers FOR SALE* or TRADE. I am a member of the Washington Arms Collectors (WAC) Association, and I am usually present at (WAC) sanctioned events. Corrections, comments, and suggestions should be emailed to me at tymoore122@hotmail.com. Enjoy your visit! Regards ~ Ty Moore
