I have been resisting the OSR urge.... Then came the Grendel rumors and desires, still going back and forth on that.....but a LT 1911 or at least a slide. OMFG that is one purchase I would definitely hide from the wife and hop on board as soon as I got the email.

In for one as well, if they become available.

Very, very nice pistol. Although I prefer a rear sight I can use to "hook" on to something for one handed manipulation of the pistol.
If you start making them though, I would just maybe have to order one! 
Here is to your wife too! She sounds like a great girl!

You are very fortunate to be surrounded by such thoughtful people.
My hat's off to your wife and friends sir. Oh yeah, nice gun. |

Sweet looking 1911. You know the rules; FAIL, for your edit. But a LT 1911 is a WIN! So you break even.

| Mark, why settle for being "the most badass, coolest manufacturer of the greatest AR products made"? Are there any plans for LaRue to get back into making 1911 parts(dare say 1911 complete guns)? Just imagine being the "most badass, coolest manufacturer of the greatest 1911's made"? In addition to the previous title! I guess it has something to do with me being a Texan, but seeing your logo on my favorite handgun is just......well...freakin awesome! I need a tissue |
