HH I'm in the market for a high-end 1911 and love Wilson, but I'm open. I want adj. rear sights and supreme accuracy. Thoughts.... HH |
Come on you know someone was gonna.

Quoted: I only paid $1200 for mine Wilson Classic Supergrade http://www.wilsoncombat.com/handguns/classic_super/large/02.jpg starting at $4475 and you get what ya pay for.   but sold mit in a fit of stupidity  |

Quoted:
I prefer the aesthetics of the Brown pistols but if supreme accuracy is your main concern. Les Baer /thread. I'd agree with that I'm leaning that way, guys....although, my Wilson would put 5 shots into a quarter @ 25 yds with 5.5 Bullseye, 200 grs. H&G SWC's over Winchester lg. pistol primers. It was scary accurate––I mean ridiculous. At this point, I'm leaning to Les and Bill. HH |

Quoted: Quoted: your a supposed husker and no love for Cylinder And Slide ? C'mon, buddy...Bill's more well-known for BHP work, and he takes faster care of current LEO's than former ones.  BTW...I love water-skiing on Fremont Lakes. HH yeah he ain't fast  but last time i talked to them their lead times about 10 months now afraid things must be a bit slow as it has been 18-24 months for as long as i can remember which is about 15 years |

Quoted:
Les Baer. Get a Premier II with adjustable sights and a 1.5" guarantee. That's 1.5" at 50 YARDS. Not feet, yards. Shit, some rifles don't shoot that accurately. And they run, too. Run them clean, dirty, it doesn't matter. They just run. Right now, it's between Bill and Les.

I do like Bill's "Dunk-It" bucket. The new formula works very well. Btw...lake 16 is fun....

Quoted: I voted STI. I'd love Miller Custom to do work for me however. I have an STI, great gun. A few small points I dislike, mainly pertaining to the use of plastic parts on the trigger and MSH, but otherwise solid pistols. I also have a Wilson which I love. I'd really love an SVI custom steel single stack too, not a race gun. I voted Wilson Combat BTW |

Quoted:
SA max, I don't think so. I want a high-end 1911 comp gun that can put 1" groups into 25 yds. The quest continues, and SA doesn't qualify. HH I'd wager that something out of their Custom Shop would be able to meet your criteria ... I'd absolutely love to own one of the SA Pro models. |

Quoted: This would be a tossup between MD Customs(Matt Davis) and Wilson Combat as they have both built me some unbelievable 1911's Wilson Stealth http://i731.photobucket.com/albums/ww313/ROCKDIVER338/stealth002.jpg MD Customs Damascus Caspian http://i731.photobucket.com/albums/ww313/ROCKDIVER338/DAMASCUSCASPIAN-2.jpg I don't normally go crazy for 1911's, but that bottom one is pure sex. |
