I'm sure it's a good gun, just not my thing. And I wouldn't pay $1400 for one.

I just can't get my head around something that costs me 2 grand and holds 8 rounds.

For 1911s spend a little more get a dan Wesson valor. Best production 1911 before getting in to semi customs like les Baer or Wilson.
STI makes a nice gamer 1911 for a grand.

funny enough i ran into that same guy offering that trade there. told me the trade was still open and said he'd even toss in 500 rounds of 9mm since i added on the triicon HD's.
tempted even more now
Glock 43, 19 (both trijicon Hds, both have weapon lights) for a performance center MP9 and a shield (Truglos) along with 500 rds federal american eagle 9mm.
my mind says no
my heart says no
my dink says HNGGGGG

I'd throw a nice lowball cash offer out there and see if he bites.
Hell, you and I don't live far apart....let me know where he's at. And I may go buy them.

Trying to think of a cheeky vinyl for my new hardshell AR case. Have a few in mind, but know you *******s are witty as they come.
Leader right now is a nutrition facts label with the only ingredients being freedom and something else, still seciding on the 2nd (possibly 3rd) ingredient.
Also thought of "This is NOT a gun," but the ATF might dislike that one.

Do you have plenty of ammo for the mentioned weapons?
Basically if have all of that then I would say get one, they are sweet.
Reason to buy a TRP:
-You have all of your basic self defense weapons and ammo already
-You live behind enemy lines and don't get to enjoy 10+ capacity weapons
-You have a large collection and just enjoy buying all types of weapons
-You are just a 1911 fan due to the controls and your prior experience
If you're limited on budget I would pass until you have a 15+ rd 9mm hd pistol, a CCW single stack pistol, and a quality AR variant.

I definitely like the black armory kote look of the 1911 TRP and they are pretty highly reviewed. I want a 1911, but I don't want a low end garbage one.

I next bought four 8-round Mec-Gars from Greg Cote. They work flawlessly for half the money.
I'm done with Wilson Combat. Poor quality and worse service was my experience.
