if i was blindfolded then all just felt like my ole springfield. im sure the slides were a little tighter and the triggers a little crisper but i just cant see the 3 grand for them. top shelf 1911s appeal to either very serious competitive shooters serious collectors with a lot of money to burn and those who want the bragging rights. for practical application there is indeed very little difference in top shelf 1911s and the better middle shelf 1911s. nathan in montana http//concealedcarryforum.com .

my sincere apologies. i did not intend to put this in this group either. hey no problem... its a far cry better than the back-and-forth bickering over the economy thats been going on here. we need more firearms talk here anyway. im all for that. are the $3-4000 custom 1911s really that much better than a $1000 springfield trp ive put maybe 10000 rounds thru a springfield loaded model in the last three years without a problem that i couldnt blame on the magazines and now im looking for a bit better 1911. which one do you guys like next will be the saiga 12ga discussion. yada yada go buy a sig. but you better hook up with your daughter first for some lessons. you keep yapping bout how good the sig is but they just dont feel right to me. i used to like plastic handguns till i held a 1911 and that put an end to that story. btw....im betting she could outshoot your ass too.. g howd it feel to get outshot by a little girl well seeing as she has outshot you why dont you tell us how it feelsg vbg ya still have the black one i got the dpms and the colt sp1. im keeping the colt original and playing with the dpms. i put a cheap holo sight on it just to see if id like it. so far so good. next year ill probably get a better one. ive found that a good sight will make up for 50 year old eyes. yup age and vision sure can mess ya up. roy denny .

are the $3-4000 custom 1911s really that much better than a $1000 springfield trp the semi-custom springfield trp ...er you wont see them for $1000 anymore more like $1400 is in my opinion the absolute best value available in 1911s period. you will find minor differences that seperate it from the custom jobs costing 3x as much but certainly nothing to warrant the addition expense in my opinion. i guess i should have bought one when i was looking at them. damn...... im looking for a bit better 1911. which one do you guys like the semi-custom springfield is again the best value available but the full custom springfield trp around $2200 is a little sweeter. i have customs costing over $3000 but dont think they shoot any finer than my semi custom trp. i was at targetworld in cinn. about a month ago and they had a rack of les baurs wilson combats ed brown and a couple of others. they all looked damned nice but if i was blindfolded then all just felt like my ole springfield. im sure the slides were a little tighter and the triggers a little crisper but i just cant see the 3 grand for them. denny nathan in montana http//concealedcarryforum.com .
