Have to introduce you to the new..........

Magnum Research Desert Eagle 1911 G. along with his buddies Springfield 1911-A1 and S&W 4506

Not a bad looking 1911... I'm not a fan of the huge writing though...

Same for me. I'd feel like I was carrying an advertising signboard.

Their add for that pistol killed it for me, I could never buy one.

Aesthetics aside, I am more interested in the components used to build the gun. Is it just being assembled here in the U.S., or is it being built here primarily with U.S. made components? How does the quality check out, compared to your SA M1911?

The logo is a little garish and I don't care for holes in the trigger, but it is otherwise tastefully done. I like the checkered slide stop and the lack of front slide serrations, which are unattractive and superfluous anyway. The rear serrations are well done and look as if they would offer a good grip. Does it have a FLGR, and is the frontstrap smooth, checkered or serrated?

The Magnum Research 1911 is made in Israel by BUL.

No front serrations? How retro...passe...old school...How can anyone consider a semi without them? The gun's obviously not usable in this condition. I suggest taking it to a custom 'smith and having them added. (MHO is that your 4506 needs 'em, too.) ;-)

Speaking of front serrations, that Springfield is gorgeous.

I'd like to a close up of the beavertail safety, it appears to have some type of scalloped cut I've never seen before.

 

[Fishslayer]

I'll have the 4506, thanks...

No front serrations?... (MHO is that your 4506 needs 'em, too.) ;-)

Cretin!

Nice pistol. Looks like it came with some features you normally only see with aftermarket parts.

It's nice to see a new 1911 on the market without front serrations. The logo is large, but somehow seems appropriate considering the brand.

But, it's hard to get excited about yet another imported, re-branded 1911.
