Nice hardware! Since I just started bullseye this season that model 41 has me drooling. What brand is the ww1 replica?

It's a Colt. They made 2 runs, one run with a Carbona Blue finish, and the other(mine) with a Black Oxide finish. There's another run more recent, with the 100 Year banner on the side, I've been looking for one of those. It came with a copy of the original manual and box.

I like the looks of the old style 1911's! I have a colt 1911 fund going now. Not sure what model to get though.

Colt's are a bit expensive right now, I guess one can say when haven't they been, but they really hold their value well. Keep the funds close by and be patient, the right gun will show up when you're ready. Research the 1911's before you make the move. The Springfields, Rugers, Remington etc are fine guns, they're just not a Colt. Not looking to start a war here, this is all just my opinion of course.

How do you like the Smith 1911?

It's rapidly becoming my favorite 45 auto. The gun costs about $1100, but imo, it's comparable to guns 2x it's price. It gobbles up 45's of all shapes and sizes, and is a tack driver. I was a little hesitant about buying this gun for the price, but as soon as I saw it knew it was a bargain. The S&W 45 ACP's are vastly underrated imo. I waited over a year to get this one, and glad I did.

My Les Baer

and also P238 and P226

Really nice Baer you have there! Love the clean look of the slide. I'd like to have a 1911 with a naked slide, or just buy a slide, preferably in blue.

Hey, how do you like this gun for a .22? I was looking to buy one?

I really like it for what is it, a cheap alternative to a 1911, great for practice.
