My local dealer said that he can get 2 of these for $851 out the door. Want to know if this is a good deal? I don't own a 1911 but would like to, but my knowledge is limited.

Not really. http://www.specializedarmament.com/  had them for $740  last I looked.

$851 seems a bit high. Unless you are talking $851 for both.

Thanks for the info! Was not sure if shipping and transfer from another place would be more than the local dealer but your link answered that. Thanks again

Shipping and transfer is often another $50.  That said, there is something nice about being able to handle the firearm before purchase.

Thanks guys apparently these are not well stocked items and are hard to get in (according to the local guy). I ended up reserving two with him for what I think is a good price of $805 out the door. Do you think I did good?

Yeah, I've been eyeing this model frequently to see if the price fluctuates. I'd say the best you could do if you ordered it online and had it transferred would be 760-780. I'd buy it at 800 after tax.

That would be a good deal around here.

any colt you can inspect is worth a modest fee.

Out the door, yes.  I think you did fine.

Pretty decent deal, in my opinion.

The local gun stealer wants at least $100 over retail for new guns and wants new prices for used guns.
