Late congrats Graehaven, I'm sure you will enjoy this firearm for a very long time.I know a very nice fellow who dearly loves his. He's kind of a Remington nut but has several 1911's and says this is a straight shooter! Great way to start out the New Year! Oh, and like everyone else says, you WILL buy more.

graehaven · 01-09-2012, 11:20 PM

Thanks.

Yes, buying more.....that's what concerns me.

I need another safe.

graehaven · 01-10-2012, 08:38 AM

Ok, so here's a couple targets.

The first one was at about 10 feet, first four magazines thru the gun.

The second one was at 20 feet, another 4 mags thru the gun, rapid fire.

graehaven · 01-10-2012, 08:39 AM

It definitely shoots low, when you are close up, 10 feet or less.

American Leader · 01-10-2012, 06:07 PM

Nice job, but I thought all your targets were smilie faces!

yetiman · 01-10-2012, 06:22 PM

Where did you get one for that price?

Double D · 01-10-2012, 07:08 PM

I have one in stock I will ship to your FFL for 589.00.

Cleburne · 01-10-2012, 10:05 PM

Congrats on the 1911, I love mine.

American Leader · 01-10-2012, 10:09 PM

Jump on it yetiman, that is a good price and Double D is a great guy to buy from! Some folks have paid a whole lot more.

yetiman · 01-11-2012, 05:52 AM

Not sure I could do business with a Gator fan, roflol. How does that work? Could you send direct to me or do I have to have it sent to a dealer?

It would have to go to your local dealer. You pay the transfer fee and it's all yours...

Well, its only 20 bucks more than you paid but thats because I do have to ship the gun. Face to face would be less. Send me a money order and a FFL licence and its on its way.

Thats correct, 589.00. Your original post says you paid 569.00.

graehaven · 01-11-2012, 04:02 PM

I'm sorry, my mistake. I paid $659. I went and changed my original post.

Double D · 01-11-2012, 04:57 PM

Well, I am sorry you didnt check with me first, that would have been an extra 70.00 in your pocket. Oh well, cant win em all. Maybe next time.

You are right, of course. I should have asked you. The flip side, I want to support my local shop, but, money is money. I don't even know what the transfer fee would be, but, probably not $70.

I will try to remember to hit you up first next time.

Great price on that Talo edition though. Whew!

Double D · 01-15-2012, 04:10 PM

I charge 15.00 to do a transfer. I dont get what the big deal is.
