I agree. They are better built with better steel than anything coming out of the Philippines, IE: Rock Island, ATI, Charles Daly etc, and at a better price.

Might be the best $430 out the door I’ve spent in a long time.

Just an FYI.
Good looking pistol.
I wanted one awhile back but they where continuously out of stock so I got impatient and picked up the Devil Ray model instead...I should have waited.
I have a Tisas bobtail commander. It’s been a nice reliable shooter for me. I wouldn’t hesitate on another one.
I guarantee you can pay a lot more for a lot less but haters are just going to hate...that's their thing.
I don't get it. What is the point here? Nobody that I know and I expect nobody on this thread carries a 350.00 1911 around. I think most of us would be closer at 3 or maybe even 4 times this price point. If we were to have a contest for the cheapest 1911 that goes bang every time you pull the trigger than I guess it would be a nice entry BUT, heck I have never found one that didn't at any price.
I swear that I am not a hater of Tisas or any other brand 1911 for that matter, but I am a lover of a 1911 that has the muzzle flip of a 22 LR and is always straight on target as long as the shooter is. Same goes for the other direction on price point also. I have 40 year old factory enhanced Colt gold cup nat'l match's that shoot every bit as smooth as an Ed Brown or Wilson Combat. Even the Smith and Wesson PC 1911's for that matter are very smooth. You don't have to spend 3500-4000 on a 1911 to be a sweetheart, but you don't have to hunt one down that cost less than my putter either. I admit I am an awful golfer.

Just put another 170 rounds down range, 150 FMJ 230 grain and 20 rounds 230 JHP. Had one round in the middle of the mag fail to fully feed, tapped the slide and it fed. It was a craptistic Sarco no name GI mag, took it out of the rotation and no more problems.
First time around I shot steel only from 50 to 15 yards. This time I shot some steel and a SQT-A1 target from 50 & 25 (all the torso shots), 15 (head shots) and 7 (the little man). The large torso is 16 inches wide at the shoulders & 25 inches tall. The little man is 2 inches x 3 1/4.
The gun is wearing in fine. I disassembled it to clean it for the first time. I was surprised to find the extractor has been radiused at the factory, pretty nice touch. I tried to get a picture of it but my phone camera-fu ain’t that good. Here she is after cleaning, wearing nicely.
Contrary to the wisdom of the Hive I am going to carry this gun. That’s why I bought it. Probably will carry it this weekend in this Bianchi 84 working around the house, it’s rattlesnake season up here on Lavender Mountain.
I have a nice TTGunLeather rig for towning around. Anyway turns out this was really $430 well spent.

This is a sweet pistola! I dig this gun. It does have a CHF barrel and forged frame and slide. It's got great bones!
After careful consideration, I have decided not to get into a gun battle with you!
