    I have a Tisas 1911 and it's as good/better as any Remington or Colt Uncle Sam issued to me in the 1980s, including my match gun. Better value for the money than Colt, Kimber, or SA. The snobs don't trust imported 1911s; they'll get over it. I remember when they did not trust Austrian Tupperware too.

    I recently bought the Tisas Raider (M45A1 clone), was surprised that it comes with 2 quality mags, cleaning tools, and a very nice plastic case. I compared it to my Springfield Armory Ronin 1911, and i didnt notice much difference aside from the safety on the Tisas is a little too loose, and the trigger isnt quite as clean as my Ronin, but the Tisas felt like it had a much smoother fitment and action than my Ronin. I haven't shot it yet, but I'm confident it will perform well. For $650, to get a quality railed 1911 that's a clone of the now legendary and $5000+ priced Colt M45A1, that also comes with the nice case, tools and quality mags, that's just unheard of.

    @toddrobinson8069 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    hi, i purchased a duty model without the rail and a carry model with the rail, and they do make wonderful platforms to improve upon, I gutted the duty model and i kept the slide, frame, barrel and ambi thumb safety, the rest of the internals were replaced with Wilson combat parts, i also had a 1 piece mag well and bushing compensator from Wilson added as well. if you do the work yourself it ran me about $900 total. the results are very apparent, i went from a decent 1911 with a good trigger, and terrible springs (@30lb recoil and terrible/painful mag release) to a a very nice match grade paper/steel killer. the commander length model, will get similar treatment and a surefire light.
    but why some may ask would you gut a perfectly good budget gun...the answer is simple, neither had functional grip safeties from the factory and where purchased several months apart. be sure to do a proper inspection and function check on these guns before using. i also found the grip safeties are to blame as the geometries between them and the trigger was off, also its dimensions are a little off from other beaver-tail grip safeties hard to tell until you try to remove them. overall i am still happy to have these pistols, even if all the internals are all Wilson Combat now, they are still cheaper than most Kimbers and other higher end copies. one last remark, with all their high speed improvements they still have a standard mag release, so you may want to consider an extended one...about 1/16" longer is all, but that's also personal preferance.

    As a 1911 shooter for 33yrs, I hate hearing these polymer guys say the 1911 is a terrible gun for first time shooters. It's to complactcated, only 10% of the population should carry one, I call b.s.. if you start and practice and learn the platform including maintenance, polymer guns will be a cake walk. Actually, once you shoot 1911s you won't want anything else.

      That's the issue with most shooters these days they just want to pull the gun out and shoot they rarely take any time out to learn how to properly shoot the gun or clean it so I'm guessing that's why everybody likes to talk about the Glocks Sig 320 and M&P because they're a little bit more easier to learn. But anything that has a hammer or is made out of metal comes across as being complicated and a high maintenance gun sad but it's the truth

    I have three of these. The carry model, the duty model and another carry railed model. Only complaint is that the ambi-safety on all three are very loosely fit. So much so that the thumb safeties "wobbles" in the frame and is not very positive when engaged. Swapped the one on the duty model out for a single sided thumb safety with a much better fit. Will probably do the same on the other two.

    • @slinkyrobb
      @slinkyrobb 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sds upped the qc too. The old zenith 1911s were cast frames and had poor machining. Crooked cut feed ramps, magazine wells looked cut with a triangle file. The sds models are forged frame, slide and barrel. Barrel is chrome plated. Feed ramps are cleanly machined. Slide to frame fit is tight. The lines along the gun are nearly flawless. I now own 2 and they are as nice as the custom pieces I made myself. My only complaint is there is a little play in the barrel lockup but I purchased them to be carry guns so bullseye accurate isn't necessary for my mileage. Still as accurate as most off the shelf defensive guns

      Lol. I love how everyone thinks I get paid to make make these. Of the 160
      Plus videos I have made. To date two of them have Been sponsored. I buy and pay my editor with money from my company. Facts matter my friend. And yes if you are looking for an entry level. Non fitted 1911 pistol the Tisas makes a great pistol

    " Unloaded and Clear" that's good because you just pointed it at your left hand.

      For real. Since you probably don’t know. The gun can not fire unless I pull the trigger. And long as I don’t start with a loaded gun. The pistol cannot fire since there is no round in the chamber. I hope that helps

      @@rdrgear Thanks for the response. I checked the forums and other guys with these guns had a heck of a time. It seems like the dovetails or novak-like, but not quite novak. So the sights won't really blend in with the gun.

      @@rdrgear Nah, I'm good. My B45 Duty came with the f/o front and u notch black out rear. Did not think I would like the rear sight but I find I like it very much. Very surprised how accurate the firearm is. Has been 100% with any FMJ 230 gr ammo I have used. Looking for some 200 gr to compare. Was on sale for an unbelievable price of $399 from Sportsman Outdoor Superstore. Waiting for a deal on the BR45 Carry in SS to come up for my next purchase.

      They shot great. And you can tune them up with pretty much any 1911 aftermarket parts. There are better pistols. But at twice the money.
