can't remember exactly how much right now. I fully expected to buy a
1911 if they were ever released and I know the guns I bought are
worth more today than what I paid, but...a beater 1911 for $1,000?
I've made it this far without one and I guess I can make it the rest of
the way.
I been looking for a beater, truck gun, 1911a1 for a while now.
The new AO ww2, SA USGI-mil spec, my norinco are better than the beater I'm browsing for. I may try a Tisas next something under $400.
