Decent 1911's

[Joelski]

For a railed gun, the TRP is hard to beat. CZ/Colt is nonexistent, a viable alternative would be a DW Pointman (they come in 9, or .45), or Specialist (Same offering). Sadly, Tisas is making a mockery of the sub-1k 1911 market by offering a decent weapon with decent parts, no fewer sharp edges than the new Colt Series 70 LE, and they have railed models. The Tisas is similar to the SA Mil-Spec in every way expect it comes from Turkey, and that jives hard as the 1911 should only come from the land of JMB.This is my second 1911, and the next one will be an Alchemy Prime, come hell or high water. We have nice stuff on this forum, and that doesn't need to stop at 1911's. I would not spare a second glance at the primary market (other than to spec my Alchemy).The only hardship with this gun is it is getting new sights.

I would have commented, but the only "okay" 1911 I have is a Ruger. Problem with it is that I had extensive work done on it. The only Ruger parts left on it are the frame, slide, and barrel. Every other 1911 is Colt, Ed Brown, Les Baer, or Sig. Purists say the Sig is not a "true" 1911 because it has an external extractor . But the Sig has been flawless, and very accurate. And, if it does shit the bed, I have non-mim replacement parts. Oh, I do have a very early Para P-14.
