i am interested in buying a wilson combat full size cqb. can i buy a commander sized slide to use on the same frame? what is the approximate price i should pay for this pistol. full size cqb black armour tough with night sights |
not really looking to toss it away, from what i have read wilson makes a very good 1911. are they worth the money or not |
That's a very large question indeed, and one that only you can answer. For me, I'm not sure what the Wilson does that a Springfield TRP doesn't do for half the price.  Of course if you have your heart set on the Wilson and it has some feature that's worth an extra few hundred dollars to you, then its "worth the money" as far as you're concerned. BobCole is correct on the fitment issues. |
Yes, Wilsons are worth the money for a buy-it-now 1911. To put it another way: You won't think you got cheated out of cash by buying it. They have a good warantee, provided you DO NOT EVER have the gun worked on by someone else; even if you send it to YoBo to get work done and have a warantee issue afterwards, they (Wilson) will tell you to go pound sand. The high-end Springfield TRP (weighing in at around the 2k pricetag too) is also a good buy, with a great warantee as well. |
Ahem... Hellfuckyeah. I have a CQB compact myself along with a good pile of 1911s of various makes, sizes and eras, and nothing else comes close. For you, I suggest you either go with the CQB and leave it alone, or get the Professional (compact top on a full-size bottom). |
