It’s a shooter! Gotta get used to the grip angle and the trigger.

Offhand @10 yards.

Looking at your other posts you had never had any 1911s that didn't have problems. Why did you get this one?

I do not currently possess any 1911s. But the triggers are potentially second to none. Past guns are Colt Gov Series 70, Star PD, Colt 1911A1 Stainless.

Edit.: Had an AMT Hardballer first production circa 1978. Had serious jamming problems. This was before they figured out you had to have diferrent stainless steel for frame and slide to prevent galling.

I had an opportunity to buy it at a steal of a price. That’s the only reason I have it now. The past 1911s I’ve owned have had FTF, FTE, and stovepiping issues. This one’s been good so far.
 
I am trying so hard to not buy another one and you post this.
How is the trigger?
You have the best 45 there is. Mags are here so it can be carried. You really need to put down everything else and embrace the 1911.

I type the above with several 1911's upstairs and my G30 on my side.
However, some days I want to and enjoy carrying a 1911.

I’m exactly where you’re at. The trigger is really nice. Short and crisp, with a short reset.

My SSII came in and I think I’m in love.
