This is the Taylor 9mm 1911 that PSA was blowing out a couple weeks ago. It's absolutely packed with nifty features like better sights, upgraded grips, checkered backstrap, grooved front strap, "memory hump" safety, and flared magazine well. Just the tiniest bit of play in the slide. The trigger is not the best, somewhat gritty with a bit of take-up. I think it'll smooth out with shooting and dry fire.
Speaking of which, it shoots like a dream. All steel, recoil is insanely smooth. I think this is going to become my favorite pistol.  Attached File Attached File |

Ignore my shitty shooting. The center target was at 10 yds. The left two were at 20 yds with the FMJ. The upper right corner was 20 yds with 124 gr. HSTs. The lower right corner was 20 yds with 124 gr. Sierra JHPs.

Are these made by Armscor / RIA?
Looks just like one of their offerings. I just picked up the RIA that's very close but adds adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front. It was $525 - ordered before seeing the PSA deal  Mine shoots like a dream! |

I have a Armscor-manufactured Cimarron 1911 that absolutely digests everything I stuff into it, from 185-gr JHP’s to 255 gr cast semi wad cutters.
I also have a pair of Shooters Arms (the other big 1981 manufacturer in the Philippines). Excellent guns. |

In the old days, I think some guys would put a little tack weld on and grind it until they had it where they wanted it. In any event, insufficient pre/over travel is a good way to make a trigger easy to bump fire and double. |
