Good grief gentlemen, leave some for the rest of us.
 Seriously looking forward to the range reports from you guys that already got one! The pictures are sure making my resolve weak. I don't really want to cheap out, I want a solid 1911 because I'd like to get back into actually carrying it. I can't spring for a hand built one. I had some miles on a Springfield Loaded a long time ago, and was originally looking for another of those but still have a little grudge about that black mark SA earned with the politics thing. I probably would have let it go if I found a good one. The itch to replace it is getting pretty bad. Trouble is, now it seems that things have changed quite a bit and the solid recommends have updated somewhat. I've been hearing so many glowing reviews about these Turk guns, Rugers, RIA, etc its hard to overlook them, especially when accompanied with some horror stories with pictures about companies that used to be considered a sure thing. Is mostly better marketing? Hard to say. Hopefully whatever I land on will work out. Its not real easy for me to get gunsmithing or warranty work done. |

That's literally-exactly the only place where writing belongs on this... and required by law. That's an exciting offering if they can drop the modern Knife-MAC logo and clean up the ads. On the hammer- the spur is the part that engages your thumb, and there are several different types: GI Spur Wide Spur (old GI) Round Spur (Commander) etc... etc... |

Well, I just ordered a MAC last night. As much chatter there has been about this model, I figured I better jump on one before everybody is sold out. This will make my 3rd Tisas in addition to my Raider and Tank Commander.

Have any of you early adopters got some rounds downrange with it? I'm intently anticipating some anecdotes about how this thing does in real life. I'd like to get back into a 1911 I can actually carry, but it's not as easy to free up a sizable chunk out of the budget as it used to be. This just might be the way to make it happen.

I’m at 200rds so far…. Not one issue so far using 230gr ball. I haven’t tried any JHPs.
I did have the trigger slightly worked and a better crown on the barrel. It’s been extremely accurate. For the money this is a great gun |

I've been eyeing one of these for awhile now. A couple questions come to mind.
1. Has anyone purchased a holster for the JSOC yet? I am worried that tall front sight might make it harder to find the right holster. 2. Has Tisas eliminated the MIM parts on this gun as they have on others they build or do these come with MIM parts? @SDSImports |

I’m using the same holster, works great. As others have said, the front sight is no issue the rear needs an optic cut or low cut type holster. No MIM parts except the recoil spring plug. Such a nice pistol for the money. Mine is currently getting the 10-8 duty tune treatment. |

Well crap; I just found this thread today and had to find one.
I have 2 Tisas 1911s already. They have been great and I have no issues with them. I plan on shooting at Camp Perry in the 1911 matches next year and needed to find one with an adjustable sight. This fits the bill nicely. Found one and pulled the trigger tonight. Can’t wait to put it through its paces. Finally, for those of you questioning the quality and price of these guns, let me help. The Turks are very good gun makers having learned from the likes of Colt and H&K. I haves the 2 1911s I already mentioned plus an AP-5 and AP-5P MP5/MP5K-PDW clones. Those have been great guns too. So why so cheap? It’s all about the exchange rate and the Turkish Lira has been in the toilet relative to the US Dollar for several years. This won’t always be the case, so buy while you can. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Glock4140: What is MAC? Some Uber-Fudd fake Colonel price gouger who spouts off about stuff he knows nothing about. Also, a legendary manufacturer of firearms that pitched some noteworthy designs during the Cold War. They had a complete weapons system- with suppressor- that was cheap, reliable, compact/ concealable, etc. IF they could have slowed it down with a modern tungsten alloy bolt, mounted an Armson OEG, and a few other tweaks, it would have made a bigger splash, IMO. Also, what the other poster said in Post #31. |

Except when you hang around 1911’s a long time and become a trigger snob. The factory trigger was perfectly serviceable and better than a plastic striker trigger. I don’t like set screw adjustable triggers so that’s what got the party started. Setting up a 1911 how you like it is part of the fun and “expense”. The factory parts are tool steel so it wouldn’t take much to get a nice trigger by stoning and a little sear spring tuning. |

I'm wearing a Ryan Grizzle working man as we speak. You might be fine with his normal design. If anything it might just keep it snug.
Get the horsehide too. It's nature's kydex. Honestly I've got a JSOC in a cart and I'm about to order. If I did I'd expect to utilize this holster. If it doesn't work then I may not even entertain the thought.  Attached File |
