1911pd

[centermass181]

Stopped by Four Seasons today, to molest the 1911pd....I had to talk myself out of there. What a solid gun, fits perfect in my hand. Anyone have this, the 5" model? I think Im going to go back next weekend and make it mine.
Anyone want to buy a USP?

I have a SC 108282 and it shoots better than I do. In the 40 years I've been shooting I think it's the most forgiving pistol I have ever shot. Great trigger, really like the sights, fast to pick up after the recoil, especially for my old eyes. I have a safe full of handguns and it's my favorite.

What really surprised me was, I like it a lot more than my Sig Sauer P220. I have alot of old revolvers and the trigger reminds me of shooting a Model 27 in single action.


The only problem I have now is I'm thinking about selling of a lot of handguns and buying a couple of more. I want to get the 108283 PD next. How much are they asking at Four Seasons for them?

$794.00

Just loving mine, nearing 1000 rounds now without a hiccup. Its very unforgiving though if you ride the slide while cocking. No problems with Winchester white box, American Eagle, UMC, Silvertips, and Hydra-Shok.

I have one and LOVE it. I don't have many rounds through it yet but it's run flawlessy so far. My one and only "complaint" would be that the ambi thumb safety was fitted a little tight... but that has corrected itself after working it a few times. Hard to beat for the price!

Which model is that? Here's the one I fell in love with:

thats the one.


sighhhhhhh.

thats the one.


sighhhhhhh.

Wow- that's strange. I'm pretty sure I was told it's 699. The one with adj sights and wood grips was more I think. Either way it's on my list.

Ouch,

That is the same model I picked up at Four Seasons for $550 ~18 months ago. It was slightly used, I'd guess maybe 100 rds thru it before the owner had to sell and put it on consignment.

 

[centermass181]

hmm, actually thats not the one.

I was looking at the SC model.

The "SC" stands for Scandium. It is a strong lightweight metal. The SC guns are lighter than a standard 1911. This can be nice if you carry it a lot and don't want the extra weight on your hip. There is more felt recoil in this model because of the weight reduction.
