Remington R1

[FUPAGUNT]

Ok I should have said. Best out of the box gun for $800? Only mods I would like to do is add some night sights

 

[Stagman]

Check and see what Springfield offers for under $800 is this backwards or what you're looking to get a gun with a thumb safety and I am in the market for a glock

Best OOB Taurus PT 1911 dang near all the custom works done

 

[FUPAGUNT]

I really like this one and the price seems to be right in my wheelhouse.. Anyone know what kind of night sights I would need?

My 1911 stays in the safe until range time

I carry my EMP, my Sigs, my Colt Defender... no need to leave 'em in the safe gentlemen.

I think you would like it better if it had a beavertail grip safety instead of the standard GI safety

 

[Stagman]

By FAR the best gun for under $800 impactguns.com has a Springfield Armory Loaded 1911 with tritium night sights fo $799.99 look at the grip safety it's a beavertail

I have had three in 45APC. My Corps issued Service Colt: Went bang every time in rough conditions, chest size group at 25 yards. A Remington Rand: Wore out, rattled like a castanets when you shook it but if fired every time and hit or scared the hell out of targets. I got the 1911 bug again and started research for a high quality AND great value gun. I was considering the Taurus PT1911SS (non rail) It was so good looking and had most of the custom featured from the factory. Then I saw this 1100 round test fired in to minutes.

Taurus semi's are a you love them or hate them proposition. Resale will be better on a colt or springfield too.

Did anyone notice he pulls the trigger with his SUPPORT hand...is this a normal practice???...back to ur question....a good friend owns a PT1911 and considers it one of his nicer ones...unfortunately I havent got to shoot it yet

 

[wildrider666]

Good catch on the support hand trigger pull. I reviewed part 1 and 2 and he switches back and forth, I guess he had an idea of the trigger finger "wear" that was coming.

Smoothest 1911 that I have ever shot out of the box. Great trigger and very good accuracy.
You are more than welcome to shoot mine. I have seen them on Buds for around $600.
