Anyone know of a competent 1911 smith? I would like a threaded barrel added and a few other things adressed. Im not comfortable doing this by myself so id have to send it off

Kimber a shit tho

Should sell that and go buy a real 1911

>1911

>.45acp.

shit round for shit gun.

Are RIA and Springfield my only options for a non-stainless, full size, .45 1911 with an ambi safety out of the box for under $1k?
Is so, are safeties drop-in parts or would I need a smith to fit it?

>Kimber
I'm honestly amazed how a company that chargers $1000+ for guns has such horrific QC.

Which models? I'm only seeing the old XSE's, which look like they're out of production.
Are those older Series 80 XSE's a decent buy at around $900?

How are RIA's? Looking at a GI model in 9mm.

They are ok, nothing special.

Meme Brand,

What's wrong with it?

It's the original maker of 1911s

Is that a bad thing?

I like my para-ord 14/45

I don't think so...

This picture makes me feel comfy

Recommend me the best full-size carry 1911 in .45?

i have ruger sr1911 been really happy with it so far

Do Kimber 1911 parts have the same dimensions as "normal" 1911s or will I run into issues if I buy a Kimber and start replacing parts?

Parts come in two sizes over and under. Under will fit many different models but will have looser tolerances. Over sized parts are hand fitted.

Good to know, thanks. I'm a 1911 noob so I'd probably have to send it to a good gunsmith anyway to make sure I don't run into any problems.

they're all the fucking same, just pick one.

I want pic related. But it's ass rapingly expensive. 14+1 10mm Dan Wesson Elite Series Titan.

Why though? 10mm is good for nothing.

10mm is best mm. Better than .45 in any case.

Wrong. I suggest you stop drinking the kool aid.

The 10mm by numbers is simply a better round than 45 acp. Denying that fact is drinking the 45 acp kool aid.

What modern 10mm JHP outperforms the equivalent in .45? If you can even find any modern 10mm ammo that is.

Yes goddammit. Numerous people have answered both these questions.

Springfield loaded.

Must be fit.

If you can't find modern 10mm you need to move from where you are.. I live in BFE and I can get great 10mm ammo for hunting, carrying, or practice at all 3 places in town.

They were run by the same Jew that's currently gutting SIG, what do you expect?
