Hi, looking for a 1911 lightweight, higher end. (improved QC)
looking for 600-700$ plus range for higher quality.- do NOT want exclusive 1200+ custom models- just good quality, reliable, functionable. toyota/lexus/honda reliability/QC
I know there are people happy with their less costly ones but want more proven reliability
input regarding manufacturing ? forged better than MIM? or other process.
read some issues with MIM QC, (taurus?)
One forum mentioned a higher end 1911 is one of the worst buys to get.
also it is of high maintanence freq break down.
I'm looking into the trends/statistical experience
read Kimber II QC is down the tubes.
SW PD feels good in grip and weight but worried about MIM.- but CS is great
Taurus QC a concerned, also MIM.
how's Sig's new 1911? newness of a concern, (kinks?) manuf process? MIM/forged or other?
colt series 80 is too heavy, as is springfield's standard,
NOT interested in Charles Daly/RR-amscor/filipines.
? over all QC of para ordinance?
any input much appreciated.
already own some sigs, SW MP-9mms looking to move up 45 acp. (XD grip too big as is 220)
