Right now the two best deals (and not my humble opinion) in a 5" 1911 chambered in .45ACP are the Yost-Bonitz 1* Enhanced built on an SA GI for $1445 or a Wilson CQB for about $1700 or less if you shop around ($1950 + shipping from Wilson). My suggestion would be to get the 1* Enhanced and add a Kart barrel instead of the SA 2 piece (but that is more want than need). I KNOW that the 1* Enhanced with or without the SA factory barrel is the absolute best underpriced deal in a true quality 1911.

 , oh . . . I do have a couple in stock (once in while), but I don't really do much with complete firearms. With the BCM project up and running, it has taken up any spare time. And firearm transfers are time consuming compaired to just inventorying parts. --------------------------------- Thanks to everyone for their input ! PS - I do have a series 70 at YB for the *1 Enhanced . . .  |

I'm confused. What would my Ed Brown be considered? I called them and told them what I wanted.
They gave me a price on the basic 1911 and a price for the upgrades: checkering, ambi safety, sights, and so on. Thanks for the insight. |

Thanks guys. That makes sense. So a YB *1 would be full blown custom?

Custom, Full house customs usually entail many artistic embellishments as well as functional ones and sell in the $4000 + range

Not really. It's still a pre-defined package that you're allowed to make some minor changes to. A "full blown custom" would be a gun for which you specified every part, every little detail, and built from scratch to your own specs, either from bare frame and slide or using a "base gun". |
