Should I get it?

I really want to buy it but you have to be 21 and older in my state to purchase a handgun.

Hey Im new to firearms whats so bad about Colt?

Op here I was going to get an 80% kit to build a 1911 since thats legal but Im not sure why the kits are so much more costly.

As a side not what about this Lee-Enfield as a first fire arm?

They're a household name, but also completely unrelated to the Colt you think you know. They've gone bankrupt multiple times and changed hands over and over. These days, they just make average-quality firearms for top dollar because people will buy anything with the pony on it.

Other brands worth steering clear of (for similar reasons) are Remington and Springfield Armory.

>1911
Ayyyyy

Good to know thanks for the good info user! I appreciate it!

No worries, man. No one is born knowing this stuff.

Just don't kill yourself

holy fuck i thought that was a legit colt paddel ball attachment

I didnt plan on it lol. Last thing I want is for libs to have another reason to take people rights away

Only old colt is good colt.
Ruger is now the official /made_in_usa/ gun guy.

> remington

Their 1911's are fine. I own one and plenty of other people can agree that it works fine.

> springfield

If you're buying a springfield 1911, buy a used one.

>have to be 21
children off K!

op you can find an old Colt for reasonable prices if you look around enough
got pic related (compact) for about $600

I might go to another site that isnt armslist. Know of any other good firearm sale websites

From what I hear the modern Colt 1911 are better than the specific generation of 1991s that you posted in your image. Modern Colt 1911s are fine if you're looking for a blued 1911 at a decent price. As far as I know none of the major brands offer a blued 1911 for less than $1000.

IME, my Colt 1991 from 2015 is great. Accurate as hell, great fit and finish. Has never had a jam with my Tripp Research magazines, but I get occasional jams with the factory mags that came with it. Take that how you will.

Gunbroker is good to go. Just find a seller that takes credit/debit so you don't have to go through the hassle of doing a money order.

Thanks for the advice user

They're good just dont but anything post 2014
