1911 where to buy

You can now get a any way you want it. Are these enhancements and custom treatments to the GI-style worth the money? Yes and no. As the popularity of the skyrocketed in the last part of the 20 th century, low-cost versions became available to meet the demand. Due to poor quality control and the use of less-than-ideal materials and parts, these bargain guns gave s a bad reputation. This pushed consumers to high-end variants and to custom gunsmiths.

Where this pistol is lacking is in the inclusion of many of the upgrades gunsmiths like Bill Wilson made popular.

The sights are small and hard to see. The combination of the standard GI grip safety and GI hammer will painfully bite the web of large hands. The thumb safety is small and non-ambidextrous. The slide-to-frame and barrel fit, while good, is not optimal for the highest level of precision. The grips are unattractive and plastic. And, maybe just as importantly, by modern standards, the gun has a plain and utilitarian look.

The sights are bold and easy to see. The trigger action is magnificent. Call it a distressed, battle worn finish in the making…. If this is a truck gun, or a general purpose pistol, and you spend exactly zero time posing at the range, the Rock Island is a great handgun. Not every manufacturer will back their guns with a lifetime warranty. Rock Island Armory handguns for sale all come with that guarantee from the factory. The rear sight is fixed, but they are snag-free.

The color-coded grips are kinda cool too. The Rock Island is not a pretty gun, but it is a good gun. EAA has done great things of late with competition handguns and 10mm auto handgun specials.

So is this a genuinely solid sub-compact ? At this price? There is a ready market for this Officer carry pistol if it can hang with the competition. The early signs are that it really can.

First and foremost, this gun cycles reliably. That is a big deal for a sub-compact , as many of you will attest to. It took Colt years to get this right. Girsan might not be in that same league, but EAA has a rep to protect. Or something…. The Turkish firearms manufacturer claims to have perfected the basic technology and mass manufacturing techniques required for an affordable carry pistol.

There was a time, way back, when Auto Ordnance was a pretty big deal around here. Like Ron Burgundy, that time has past. Is this an American classic?

Kind of. The same goes for the basic fixed front sight and rear sight combo. Apart from that this matt black finish is a no frills weapon that still somehow manages to retain its rugged elegance. You can spend more on a hard chrome finish and the fancy touches that separate this gun from more expensive fare.

But you can also just buy one of these and shoot it for years, probably without any major trauma. Essentially the Taurus is a clone of the US Military and was announced in It has evolved little since then, but the Brazilian budget has a solid market share.

Novak sights join a hammer forged barrel and stainless steel slide. They do look like premium gun touches. Get some G10 grips, upgrade your pistol as you go and this could turn this full size pistol into a nice project. Not everybody loves Taurus reliability, including the South American law enforcement officers that often opt for revolvers instead. The Tanfoglio Witness Commander Polymer is a plastic that is half a pound lighter than a steel-framed Commander. Then you see the price and this is all win.
