Hey guys...I am in the market for an affordable 1911....
Now my idea for Affordable is the 5-700 dollar range....
I just want a basic 1911..I don't need all the hi-zoot accessories from the factory....It doesn't have to be a target gun.....I just want the gun to shoot straight and reliably.....It will be used mostly for home defense and as a range toy...I don't need it for anything in particular...I just want a 1911....I might upgrade it eventually.....
I have been thinking about the new Remington R1, but they are hard to come by in my area(which is weird since I live like 30 minutes away from the plant they are built in)....I have also been thinking about the PARA GI expert SS......I like the looks of the GI style 1911s...There is something kind if nostalgic about them....
If anyone has any other suggestions please let me know....Also I dont need any brand snobs....I don't care if your $3000+ whatever combat 1911 shoots 1/4 inch groups at 1000 yards.....I am not spending that much money....So don't suggest anything like that...
