So after seeing a good friend of mine and a amazing gun smith, I came home looking up a new 1911. I know double star has made frames, but now they have a full blown fit & finish pistol. It seems like an amazing firearm thats made 100% in the USA and its under $1200. Now I own a few Springfield 1911's and a Colt. But I have been looking for a new duty carry for the private security field. It seems like a well put together pistol. Does anyone have any field experience with this specific 1911? Or any known flaws thus far? Thanks for the help guys!


for those that have yet to see this thing http://www.gunblast.com/DoubleStar-1911.htm   check it out. looks pretty nice

From what I've heard they shoot nice enough for the money.  The only things I don't care for is the HUGE dragon on the side of the slide and the grip safety looks like a drop in piece.  For the $$ I'd expect a better fit.  Other than that, only time will tell how they hold up.

Rock River doesn't make 1911's anymore. They blamed it on the lack of quality parts. Truth is there was more money to be made slapping together AR's
