Sweet! I’ve been looking for a bare-bones Model 1911. And I REALLY like the price. I’ll have to go check one out. Is that a parkerized finish?

Good choice. I bought one of those a few years back. Plenty of “bang for the buck”. I’d recommend it too.

$350!? You serious?

I like April’s suggestion of ventilizing them not vaporizing them. LOL!

I always am stunned when I read the NRA mag (now the only mag I subscribe to - used to get Forbes). The section with home defense stories.

Always the same story. Bad guy breaks in and granny or gramps has a .22 pistol. Tells intruder to stop, intruder keeps coming, senior fires, bad guy dies.

This contrasts with most gun owners that say “oh you have to have a .40 or .45 or .357 magnum or .44 (or a freaking Barrett BMG.50 ;-)) for stopping power.”

Nice weapon.
I've been on the lookout for a 1911.

I really like the 1911. That will stop anyone in their tracks.

I'll second the vote for the Rock.

I got a Rock Island SC for around $450 and I love it.

Mrs. Knitebane has the Rock Island Government model on her shopping list.
