Sold my black custom shop last year and told myself I'd buy the regular version if I came across one but unfortunately I'm not in the position to drop the $1700 right now. For those interested HERE is the link. They also have the only other Colt 1911 I currently want the delta elite for $1069 HERE. |

Nice, I do like them a LOT and if I run across one I'll likely seriously think about buying it but I have a LOT of 1911's and it has to be really REALLY special to make me open up the ol' money stash and make Ben complain about leaving his buddies. To me, special was something like the Carbonia Blued WW1 reissue, no other larger manufacturer made anything like it, especially at the original $850 price you could buy them for. I'll keep looking for one and see if I get ''the 1911 droolies'' when I actually handle one. If I do.............well...........the emer fund does include certain guns in it. |
Liberals are a curious mix of communism and fascism, they want to destroy you but want to use your own money to do it.
I'm getting down to the last box, the others have all been destroyed...

You can put 4 in your cart, so i assume that’s how many they dug up from somewhere. I got one when they were introduced and also have the 45 and 9mm Tisas versions; all nice pistols. |
I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.
No rules today, sport…just orders.
It’s not about how many people you kill, it’s about how many you save.

Yeah I slimmed my 1911 and AK stuff and today I see those and an AK I want but I don't think spending a couple grand right now on more of them is something I should do. |

I ordered some m45a1 grips from mil-tac back in November and never received them. The guy said he'd check tracking and send another pair but hasn't answered my emails after. I should give him a call and see what the deal is and possibly get another pair just for a future 9. He probably had left over and I'm wondering if he's waiting on another big order and stalling but that's off topic. Also didn't see the railed delta elite but that's on my to get one day list too I just didn't think they made them anymore. |

Craig (the owner) is a stand up guy. Just email him / call again and he will take care of you. I get the feeling it is just him handling most everything there. I have 2 spare grips with regular size screw heads (make sure you specify is you want M45 or standard screw head sizes) and love them. I always liked the kits they made for Army EOD back in the day too. Glad y'all bought those M45A1s up! i was trying to not buy a spare and hoard

AU is like “What the heck happened? They sold out in minutes.” Then again, they probably know someone must have posted a deal alet on ARFCOM. |
