I've owned a few Wilson packages that I had performed on guns I sent in.I even owned one Ed Brown Kobra carry at one point.High End 1911's for me was more of a phase I went through.I no longer belong to any match league,so my interest is only in self defense.As long as I can consistently hit a 2 to 3 inch group center mass at 40 ft.Im fine with that.

Per others..everything from weight reduction to barrel stiffening to dirt catching... rolleyes:
Smart move. I'll be looking forward to your range report and more pics!

That's a smoking deal for the marks on that gun to be discounted that much. If it's going to be a shooter, the marks don't mean a thing. Heck, if it was a duty gun, I'd prefer it premarked.....kind of like getting that first ding in a new car pulling off the lot. I'd happily drive off in a new truck with a few scratches in the paint, if I could get that kind of discount. The other difference is, the Wilson will hold it's value - the truck will not.
Great purchase sir! I can't wait to hear your first range report - you're going to love it.

For $1800 that's a great deal. For the original price of $3500++ I'd be looking at spending that on custom work. There are some great 1911 smiff's I'd be paying instead of buying the Wilson. But for 1800...just buy it. Anyhoo I'm more of a Les Baer guy.
Les Baers are great, not every gun maker lets you do the final 5% of fitting yourself. 
And all it costs you is 500 rounds of ammo; if that doesn't do the trick, don't worry, Les'll personally explain to you how to shoot 500 more...Les Baers are great, not every gun maker lets you do the final 5% of fitting yourself.

I went back tonight and bought both. Here is a pic from store of the other Model. I brought the Tactical Carry home tonight. I will pick up the other next week when I pay for the rest of it.
