    Para double stack

    This double stack para frame says built in USA- Connecticut I believe. It’s obviously cast and seems decent quality so I thought I would just have fun with it. It doesn’t make sense to put together a carry gun with this and I guess I should take advantage of it’s weight and girth and put...

    Para double stack

    What do I do with this? I picked this Para all steel double stack frame up from a local mom and pop gun store. 200$ and I couldn’t resist. I just finished a single stack build from 1911 builders and had so much fun I thought I would build this up into something. But what. I have an STI 5”...

    Alpha Foxtrot 1911 Issues

    I don’t hate anyone. Business is business. Did you see the work that was returned to me? Have you actually had any dealings with this company? I’m not arguing with you, this is simply not necessary. The market takes care of itself. If they manufactured in the US, they would have repaired the...

    Alpha Foxtrot 1911 Issues

    That’s what they will try and make you believe. They may be marketed here but they are manufactured by Dasan Machineries of South Korea.

    Alpha Foxtrot 1911 Issues

    I got the check last week. It’s all cleared and done. I feel it’s a shame the company that owns AF is so sketchy. They really do make a fine firearm. I have the little double stack 9mm they sell and other than being chambered pretty tight I really like it. I just can’t get it to feed my...

    Officer 1911 in 9mm

    HEY! I don't want to create a panic, but there is a Dan Wesson ECO 9mm just listed on Gun Broker. It is "like new" and for 1200$. I was going to buy it as I feel this is a deal, but if someone else wants it real bad, please buy it soon so I won't be tempted! I already have the STI Escort...

    Officer 1911 in 9mm

    If the OP wants an officer size 1911 in 9mm, check out the STI Escort. Uses the Wilson Nolin ramped bull barrel and an aluminum frame but all else is 1911. I carry one as it has been extremely reliable and feeds everything. Out of production but available on GB if you keep your eyes open. Also...

    Alpha Foxtrot 1911 Issues

    Alpha Foxtrot paid for me to ship the gun back. They supposedly mailed out a refund check today. I will update when/if it arrives. Bought this (pic) for $300 more than the AF. It is missing a rail and the optic cut, but I am confident I am getting my money’s worth. I have 200 rounds through...

    Alpha Foxtrot 1911 Issues

    NEW NEWS! Today I got a call from Alpha Foxtrot out of the blue. I had been leaving some sketchy reviews on some of the web sites I frequent. I don't know if this had anything to do with the call but things have significantly changed. They have offered a full refund and admitted that a...
