1911 BS thread

Pretty sweet. I have a 3" model.
This looks like the 4" barrel.

 

Indeed 4 inch barrel

 

That's really sexy. Who makes the grips?

 

Brian at Challis grips

 

Brian is the man.

 

I won this custom Folds of Honor Auto Ordnance M1911A1 - one of only 4 made - at the recent Woodloch Springs Folds of Honor Golf Classic. Folds of Honor provides scholarships to the spouses and children of fallen or disabled military members. Locally, John Pillar, at Woodloch, has raised over $300,000 for local families in partnership with FofH - and this pistol garnered over $10k. The pistol was donated by VETSTOCK in support of its mission of Empowering, Enriching and Improving the lives of veterans. Honor Their Sacrifice. Educate Their Legacy.

 

That’s an amazing photo of a really nice pistol! I keep going back to look.

 

Thanks. Some very talented people put a lot of work into that gun.

 

Reviving because I can. lol

Been without a 1911 for the past 20 years. Sorta miss having one. Perused the local gun place.

1. Ronnin in 45 acp. Two tone. New
2. Colt MK IV, 70 series. Blue. Used

Same exact price. Colt has G10 type grips and "the scratch" at the slide release pin. Also a VERY small thumb safety but judging by the breach and mag - probably less than 100 rounds through it.

Trying to decide if and what to go with. Brownells has new Ed Brown safeties in stock too...But another 80 bones.

 

I finally found an Emissary. I am very impressed fit, finish & trigger are awesome!

 

I just picked up my Tisas B45B commander 1911 in 45 acp yesterday. For $499.00 I'm impressed. Taking it to the range tomorrow. check out Classic Firearms and search for 1911 B45B.

 

That is amazing, I work for a liquor company and we made an RTD that was Folds of Honor related and donates to it, we did a whiskey recently that was Medal of Honor related, we had some great folks show up for that release honor.

 

How cool is that? We're planning a trip down to the Bourbon Trail sometime in April or May.

 

Very nice, we have spent the past year building a new barrel house and filling barrels so we could expand our whiskey growth.

 

My first gun purchase was this 1911. Just got around to shooting it the other day and its pretty nice

 

They make some nice firearms

 

Yeah. Reasonably priced and it came with that sweet bag/case

 

I have handled a few of them at a local shop the fit and finish is above average……
