1911

[TUNNEL RAT 33]

I HAVE A KIMBER TACTICAL CUSTOM II AND I JUST PICKED UP A WILSON COMBAT CQB . WHILE THE KIMBER IS A GREAT GUN THE WILSON IS A NEXT LEVEL . IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY , BUY A WILSON !!

Nah .. its my first one .. i dont want to go low grade but i dont want to spend 2 grand either.. Im really thinking about the GSR .. because my hometown shop sells them and springfields ... But for some reason i havent really thought about getting a springfield ... its funny because on another forum the majority was not Springfield.

I have a Smith 1911. It's a brand I trust, it's simple. It works. Never fails me. Love it. It ran me about 600 I think. It's a brand name and a great pistol. You can't go wrong.

[PYRO31888]

does anyone have anything to say good or bad about the GSR? or do you guys just not know much about it?

Colt XSE. It has a pony on it. The current guns are well fitted and shoot great.

Why not a colt 70 series. Otherwise I would go with springfield. I have a kimber warrior that I am doing a complete rebuild on- I'm done with all things Kimber.

Depending on how much you can spend, either a Wilson Combat, then a LB TRS, and then no lower than a SA "loaded" and swap out the ILS.
I think that pretty much "tier's" them price vs quality.
I would not own any 1911 with a shwartz safety and/or an external extrctor.
Just my opinion.

Sig is good for certain pistols and what not, but I would just stick with a good brand for a 1911. Only a few I would own. I would have NEVER got a SW 1911 but it was free as it was a gift from my father. Turned out to be just amazing.

Sorry don't have any info on that GSR brother.

[R.Miksits]

I would go Kimber Warrior or SIS, series 1 1911's.

Springfield or Colt if you're looking at major, off-the-shelf makers.
