Well guys, after much deliberation and a whole thread on making the decision...
I chose the Nighthawk Custom 10-8 1911.
I was still on edge about making the call up until the point I held this gun. I also fondled an Ed Brown Executive, but the NH 10-8 has the exact features I want, and it has omitted the ones I didnt. When touching this gun it just screams quality, it was much nicer than I had imagined it could be.
Since none of the stores in my area stock NH the closest store I found was Gun Gallery in Jacksonville. I called Neil(new-arguy) the other day and we talked about some 1911s and I saw the pic of this gun in his thread
here and I just had to see it in person. Well, its mine now and I am in love. My girlfriend is quite jealous. And to think...today was our 3 year anniversary and shes letting me go to gun stores...
anyways Ill stfu.
here are the pics:
here is a look through the 10-8 sight, which seems to be incredibly fast at target acquisition. It is a night sight and is very bright, but you cant see it worth anything in this picture.
