    Default Just got a 1911

    I have been looking to trade my G27 for a G30SF. I always loved 1911s but figured the price was a little much when I can just keep getting slightly used Glocks in the $ 420 range.

    So I am set on getting the G30SF when they have a SA GI 1911 brand new just sitting in the case next to it. I as usual resign myself to the usual..save the money and get the Glock. Well they jacked up their prices on the G's as of Jan 1 to $620 ..the 1911 was $560 so I was like well now is the time.

    I asked for it and the dealer smiled as he handed it to me for the first time, like a crack dealer handing out crack to a soon to be junkie.

    Needless to say, it rode home w/me that day. I swapped the G27/4 mags, some ammo and cash to get it. I LOVE it. I already put 500 rds thru it

    God does she shoot sweet. Why cannot Glock copy that trigger feel ?? It is a fricken tack driver.


    The lower rt side of the red center is 5 shots at 50 ft !! the head shots were done at 75 ft line

    I got a new Wilson Combat Mag (47D) thrown in w/the deal.


    Now where can I order online .45 ACP ammo ??

    Has anyone tried luckygunner.com ? they have 500 rds of steel case 230 Gr for $165

    Welcome to the 1911 club .

    As far as ammo goes, it can be found but it's not as cheap as it used to be. I got my last case at natchess.

    Enjoy your new friend they are great guns.

    oh no! you're infected with the 1911 bug. condition: chronic.

    i don't know if i'll ever love another pistol as much as i love the 1911. you got a good one, too, and at a fantastic price. Springfield makes great guns.

    Welcome to the dark side young Glock It. Ain't nothing beats wrapping your fingers around the grip frame of a 1911.
