I started a thread in the Gen Discussion area about a dilemma I was having regarding a new purchase. Basically it was a new PC vs. a new gun. The gun won. Now that I think about it, the PC never had a chance. I had a list of potential targets that included a BHP, some kind of 1911, Glock 20, and a Sig 220. After doing a lot of thinking last night, I have decided that I want a 1911 more than anything else. I would prefer to buy new but a Delta Elite is included in this so I know that may not be possible.
So far my new list looks like this: SA, Colt, Dan Wesson Patriot, STI Trojan.
Here come the questions. Which Colts are OK to buy? I've heard so many stories about the poor quality of Colts from whenever. When was whenever? How would one go about getting an STI without going through an STI dealer(we don't have one in the great state of New Jersey)? What is a good price for a Colt DE? Assuming I can find one, that is. And finally, I thought I saw something about a new Dan Wesson pistol in 10mm but I didn't see it anywhere on the website. Anybody know what that's all about?
