    Are "budget" 1911s worth throwing money at?

    The Comet Custom Carry thread got me to thinking last night, are the import/budget/value rated 1911s worth throwing money at for more than basic upgrades? I know @Joe C bought the ATI as a test mule and the CCC work was done as a shop project, but I haven't seen any discussion regarding fixing...

    What did you shoot today?

    I've been eyeing the 22/45 Lite models for a couple of years but since I swore off the Ruger Mk series some years ago I never could make myself buy one. Once the 22/45 Lite model was added to the MkIV line up I knew I was sunk. Did a deal with one of the local pushers earlier this month and...

    Colt Finally joined the cool kids Colt Club

    I posted "over there" a couple of weeks ago about 9mm Lightweight Defender (Model 07002DSE IIRC) a local shop had in the used case and the consensus was it was too high. It looked like new except for the barrel hood wear and we confirmed it had the case and 2 mags with it. It actually looks...

    How does this one come apart?

    I had this on a watch list because I found it interesting. I'm not familiar enough with comped 1911s to tell if that's a bushing compensator and there weren't any pics from the front to see how everything is put together. None of the pics showed a set screw or anything to suggest it's...
