Minding my own business, not planning on buying any guns (especially a single-stack gun), and this came across my radar:
Actually, it didnt really come across my radar….the bloody thing came and found me. I got ‘The Call’ from the same guy that has been putting dents in my wallet for the last couple years now. He texted me and said if I wanted first crack at it, cmon down.
Ok, so who knows if Remington is ever gonna make more of these. And it is apparently a decent gun. And it’s like new in box. Punchline? $400.
Dude, I’m not even a 1911 guy! They’re fun guns, great range toys, but a 1911 is never my first choice for anything involving self-defense. I’ll take a modern-ish double-stack 9mm every time.
But….price was right, condition was good, brand was okay, and in this market any gun is a good value gun. But….I was so sure I was done buying guns.
very nice, well done
It’s a different year!!11!
I’ve heard those were of good quality too – good luck with it.
I’m sure I speak for many – if you want to sell it (or trade for an up-modded G17) please me know sir!
The Rem 1911 is a good gun, I have one, very happy with it. Also it is essentially mandatory that any American gunfag worth their salt own at least one 1911. Besides, you can put some bling ganster grips on it, then like a true Wolverine Partisan, be all show and tell when dispatching punishments on a snowy hilltop. Just saying.
Dont sweat it. We didnt believe you when you said it anyway- we’re just too nice a crowd to call friends on crazytalk.
Congrats on the Score!
Done buying guns, how many times have I said that? Only to buy another. I met regret buying one, but I do regret not doing so.
Never regret that is, damn auto correct
“Hi, my name is Doc, and I have a gun buying problem”.
“Hi Doc!”
“I’ve been clean before. I know I have a problem…and then I see it and I tell myself it’ll just be this one more time and then I’m done”.
We feel your pain CZ :^)
