I've got a Trijicon VCOG listed for sale in the EE....it's like new in the box with papers.
A guy got hold of me today and wants to trade a Dan Wesson Valor Bobtail (VBOB) for it. The VBOB is also like new in the box with papers. I already have two 1911's (a Les Baer 6" and a Sig Super Target) amongst my other pistols, and don't really NEED another one......but the VBOB would fill a gap (for carry) if I kept it. They're both worth about the same amount of $$$$. I'm tempted to FO. Would you? Poll inbound |

Don't let the price fool you, they punch WAY above their weight. |

the real question is; 1. What other guns do you have for CCW? 2. Do you WANT to carry a 1911 for CCW? 3. Would you be upset to lose that gun? 4. Can you put down the cash for the optic instead? My thoughts anyway 1) Several, non-1911, in both 9mm and .45acp... 2) Sure...I'm comfortable with SAO, and don't fear the cock'n'lock 3) Lose? Why would I lose it? I'm not in the habit of losing things...especially firearms. 4) Huh? You mean can I live without the cash I would get from selling the optic? Sure, I'll manage. |

It's a 1911. If you want one of those, that one is nice. Personally, the optic is more useful. A handgun is a handgun unless you will appreciate it more than the optic. But for me, the optic provides me with more capability than another handgun. To be honest...I've got plenty of other optics.  which is why it is for sale in the 1st place. I'm a mil-dot guy, and thought I would try a BDC, but it didn't stick.
