[QUOTE=John_0515;4454495]That's easy. Get a "milspec" 1911, and put the accessories on as you want them. Springfield Armory is probably the safest bet.

You could turn that pistol into a monster, but in the beginning you will learn how to shoot it competently.

You won't pay more than 5-800$ for a milspec, depending on the manufacturer. I got one for my brother a while ago for 400$. Springfield Armory too.

I have a Kimber TLE. Remember, a 1911 is the "Ferrari" of pistols. High performance, high maintenance required. A TLE is probably over 1000$.

SOCOM (and special forces) don't use 1911s.[/QUOTE]


thats what i have. parkerized.....

ive noticed on this gun, its the only pistol i own that i feel i can actually "see" the slide go back and forth.....as if it were slower than the others. do u know what i mean?
