howdy,
so yesterday i was in a gun shop outside of town that i had never been to before. they didn't have much, really, but the prices seemed pretty damn good to me. in particular, there was a double eagle officer's model priced at $345. i didn't look closer at it, so i can't comment on the bore or anything else. at the time, i had no idea what ballpark price was on these, but after checking gunbroker and auctionarms, it appears that this would be a STEAL at the listed price.
can anyone comment on this model? i did a search and didn't come up with much. what i did find was a mixed bag. one poster referred to it as a "marginal design". not sure what that meant exactly. is this worth owning, or would a regular ol' single action 1911 be a better choice?
any and all comments welcome...thanks in advance.
