STIGUY Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 I know.....it is not a 1911 in the traditional sense, but I had a Buckmark that just did not do it fir me. I want something that I can mount a light on and use for practice. Should I buy this or get a Ruger and add some Tac Sol parts to it? Recently bought a 9mm (with reluctance) thinking at least the ammo would be cheap. Not as economical as I had hoped, so here I go with my .22 pistol thing again. Would live to buy an S&W 41, but at $1K minimum...won't be happening anytime soon. THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oak hill Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Colt produces good guns, they are getting better all the time in terms of fit finish. Classic styling and good looks. Really depends on your preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the trigger done though the stock one was not bad, just too heavy at 4lbs. I have had one failure of a part. The "U" in the slide stop broke off. I had about 7k rounds through it when it failed. I replaced it and have had no other issues. It is a very good shooting gun that runs as close to 100% as anything I have shot. Accuracy is about 1" at 15 yards off a bench about 2" freestyle. I clean it about every 1k rounds, it got new springs at 5k. I can't remember the last time I had a failure other than the slide stop.

PSSOH22 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I think there are better guns out there for the money, but the Rail Gun is definitely quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirpy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Stick with some 1911 and get a Tac Sol 22 conversion unit for it. JMHOFWIW Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
