Yes, I am quite sure that it could be very simple fix for it to accept CMC mags but I will just use Wilson 47D magazines and be happy. I am going to do the deal on the baby brother I will be making payments on the pistol and hopefully have it in a few months if all goes well

400 rounds of 230 Grain Remington Golden Saber through her, observations: This is the only 1911 I have owned that does not like CMC Power Mags, 2 CMC power mags, 2 failures (stove pipes) Wilson Combat 47D, absolutely Flawless Baer Mags, all 3 included, all flawless I have always liked the Wilson 47D mags but my other Les Baer pistols did not, they run like a Swiss watch in this SRP so I will be buying some more I have about 8 to 10 CMC power mags that I will be parting with I also ran 40 rounds (5 Magazines) of 230 Grain Hornady TAP FPD and this is the ONLY 1911 that I have owned that would feed that stuff reliably, tried it in my Browns, Nighthawk, Wilson Combat and the 3 Thunder Ranch special Les Baer pistols and all of them choked on this ammo, I absolutely love this pistol and trust it to carry now

No Fred, He is a buddy of mine from a long time ago on one of the 1911 forums, Crazy John is a good guy as well

Same guy is offering to sell me a Commanche SRP set up just like this one, guy ordered 4 Baer's, 2 Commanche SRP and 2 Government SRP models, sent them to John Harrison for sight work, he carries two and had mine and the Commanche as back ups left new in the box. I am so impressed with my new SRP that I may have to do this I am very tempted to do the deal, but my wife may kill me if I do!

Will do when I get more ammo, Just shot 50 rounds of Remington 230 grain Golden Sabre, honestly I think I will cancel my order for the Springfield pro pistols I have in, this pistol is that good where I think the PC9111 will disappoint me and not be worth the added waiting time This pistol is set up exactly how I want it, I was unsure about the Gold bead Harrison sight and was prepared to send the pistol to Wayne Novak for night sights but I love the Gold Bead I have to say that out of all of the 1911's I have had in my life this is the best!

Picked her up a couple of hours ago, I would like to thank D&T Arms for doing such a smooth transfer for me, they have a awesome Gun store and fantastic customer service The fit and finish on this one is better than my last, not sure but since this one is the 1.5 Guarantee a lot more hours went into this build, I could not be more happy as it is on par with the fit and finish of my Ed Browns which is saying something. I will take pictures once my camera charges up and I will run a few boxes of my carry ammo through her. If this gun shoots as good as it looks ( I know it will) I will be extremely pleased! With VZ Gunner Grips installed, this is how she will stay I love these grips! Sorry crappy cell phone pictures but she is a gorgeous trust me!
-
Maybe so guys, But I would not trade any of my high end 1911's for even 10 Glocks I love the 1911 platform and they are worth that to me
-
It's there waiting for me, but the owner of D&T arms has to put it in his books before I can pick it up, so tomorrow I will get it
-
I will pick it up this afternoon, it is on the UPS truck for delivery and I will post some pics after picking it up
-
Which model did you get?
-
Yes, I got to shoot one in .45, simple accurate no frills bad ass 1911, I love them
-
Not bad considering the wait for a Professional Springfield is now up to nearly 3 years,
-
45, close to a year
-
I have been wanting another 10MM pistol since I regrettably sold my Glock 20SF. I was set to order another through a dealer friend of mine. When I inquired about getting the Glock and my next 1911 the Gun Crafter No Name in .45, he informed me that they will do it in 10MM now so I ordered one. It will be a quoted 45 weeks before I get the pistol and this will give me plenty of time to get a Dillon reloaded and start reloading. This will be my first 1911 not in .45, I think I will like it

Les Baer 1911's are incredible, I will be picking up my 1.5 SRP tommorrow evening

Very nice grips!

I am in Australia at the moment and wearing my TGO polo short, anyway while in the Sydney Airport 3 Australian gentlemen began discussing firearms with me. The Aussies love Jack Daniels and as I am learning more every time I come into this country, they love their guns as well. I truly feel sorry for these people and I cannot begin to tell you all just how lucky we all are being able to buy the guns that we can. One of the guys I was talking with just got rid of several high end shotguns because the government here makes it very expensive and a pain in the but to own them, Just felt like sharing this, Now for my long journey home
-
Very nice, the Ruger SR1911 is my favorite production 1911, nice shooting as well
-
Will have these by the end of the year I was trying to buy a Koa wood and Stag Q-36 from someone but at the last minute they decided to keep them ( I really do not blame them) Here is a picture of one with Koa wood inserts ( not my knife being made but will be just like it t the other that I have coming will be Carbon Fiber inserts the blade steel of these will be CTS204P This one I think will be my favorite, and yes Mike, I am getting them through RJ himself
-
Very Nice!
-
Only downside is the blade size, the q36 is just under 4 inches but the ZT goes over I am surprised they made it that long
-
Congrats it is a damn fine knife! I meant to add this as well
