Well the Citadel has been flawless and fairly accurate with about 2k rounds. And now I think I'm ready to move one to a more "real" more "solid" 1911. And from everything I've been reading, between price and quality, SA seems to be the best all around 1911.
My question is this. Are all 1911 parts the same? Meaning there is no major difference between them? Maybe some fitting but it's not all together different parts .....right? Also it doesn't seem like anyone makes the specific look I like. Is there a modern 1911 that more or less resembles the original? No front serrations, no bever tail safety, and a spur hammer. Just a smooth looking 1911 with modern sights and ambi safety!
