I'm in the market for another 1911 or clone. I have had a Mk4/Series 70 since the mid 70's and have only put about 2000 rounds through it. It was rebuilt/tricked up/tuned by the late Jim Clark and then by Trapper Guns (Michigan) and is a finicky target piece. It's almost a trophy and I hesitate to shoot it much.
So now I'm looking for another gun I can shoot with a clear conscience; a 1911 or clone that is absolutely durable. Accuracy is secondary and price is no object. An absolutely reliable weapon even after several hundred rounds with a really dirty powder (I use Unique).
It also must be Kalifornicate legal, but that doesn't seem to be much of a problem since even high dollar guns have made the list.
If you've had a bad experience with a particular brand, I'd like to hear about it. Conversely, if you're impressed with a brand, I'd like to hear about that, as well.
Thanks, in advance.
