If I didn't already have an 1896/11 I'd buy this model 1911.

This sucker will put 'em where you point it...reminds me of a tuning fork when you pull the trigger.

I have a K31 but I like M1911s too. That mount looks super cool! . Bad ace also makes NDT style mounts .

The last year of producing 1911s was 1919 and they produced only 3000 of them. The Long rifle production was halted by the federation and began to produce more of the karabiner versions .

I did not know this. I looked up the serial number range. This was one of the last 100 made. 482000 was the last SN. I'm 96 shy.
