My Kimber was a grand and out of the box, first round was a ten X dead center .... not bad for an old phart with a custom gun ;-)))))))))

----- Original Message -----From: David KnuthSent: Friday, June 02, 2006 7:03 AMSubject: Re: [The1911Semi-AutomaticPistol] Vickers Tactical 1911, by Nighthawk CustomYou know, My 1911 shoots great. It shoots less than 1" at 25 yards, it has a
smooth trigger, and it's 100% reliable. Total cost? I paid $450 for it, then
another $550 for parts. I did most of the gunsmithing myself. Only thing I
didn't do was the refinishing.
Needless to say, why would I pay nearly $3k for a 1911 that won't shoot any
better than mine?
