Bought my daughter one 500 rounds ago for her birthday. Fairly accurate, no malfunctions or defects. Bidding runs $375 - $410 for 1911A1 and $450 - $475 for a Commander on Gunbroker.com.

This was my very first handgun. I ended up selling it a few years later. Now for .45s I carry (when I carry a .45) a Springfield 5" LW Operator loaded with Golden Sabers. Also in the safe is a SIG P220 loaded with some older Ranger T.
