What kind of AK is that hanging behind you?
Wayy cool d00d! Looks like an awesome budget piece, definitely piqued my interest! I'll be checking out ur other vids on this model, for sure! Liked, shared, subbed.. rock on brother👍

The 1911 is the most successful firearms design of all time. It was the official military handgun of the United States military from 1911 to 1986. An incredible 75 years. The one great thing about these clones is that they honor the original. The original is an American classic. Anything that is a classic never goes out of style.
I agree 👍
I was stationed in Turkiye, met a lot great people, made a lot of Turkish friends . Good food too.
That is cool. The ones I meet on here are very nice.
I have an ATI pistol that is a copy of the original 1911 with double diamond grips and it was on sale for $299 from Palmetto State Armory a few years ago.
My Citadel 9mm 1911 was on sale for $349 from Rural King.
The nice thing about the 1911 was that if you ran out of ammo, it was a reliable club, then when you did get ammo later, it would still work!
I enjoyed your review of this pistol. I have been studying budget 1911's. Up until yesterday, I was leaning towards the ATI gi 1911 but after watching others shooting the tisas pistol and confirming its reliability. You held it up close so I could see details, good work. This is a gun that a man can upgrade to personal taste or mess it up doing so and, it's no big deal just buy another. I like the fact you don't have a fancy back drop just, a guy in his shop with a gun. It kinda reminds me of mine, it looks chaotic but, I know where everything is, don't change. I will be watching because you don't spend 10 minutes on "keeping the lights on" before getting down to business. Yeah, I'm definitely getting on of these.
Thank you. I'm glad you liked the video. I agree with what you are saying about this pistol. Mine has run great out of the box. But I'm not afraid to shoot it, or tinker with it either. There is kind of a carefree thing with a budget pistol that makes it more fun. Yeah, I just film in my shop and hang out with you all like if I had a local buddy stop by the shop to talk guns. Some people get on me about the shop, and say they want a fancy background. But I am who I am, and if people like me great! If not.....oh well.....lol I did 2 more follow up videos on this pistol, and did shoot it in 1 of them.
I ordered one today. Took your advice and ordered the correct grips for it. Found an original U.S holster from 1942 to go with it. This will work until I pick up an original 1911. The greatest generation had one of the greatest pistols. Thanks for the fantastic review!
Cool. I hope you like yours. I love my holster and grips too. I also plan to get an original one someday. This and the Garand are the greatest generations firearms. I'm glad you liked the video. Thank you.
I ordered mine yesterday also. 😀
Thank you SO MUCH for your videos! I'm just getting into handguns, friend o mine invited me to shoot at his ranch, told me he had a 1911 .45. So where did I go to learn about the grip safety, how to cock this firearm, handle it safely first? THIS VIDEO!
Keep producing your content, my friend
Love the iron sights real men didn't need bells and whistles!
I bought one last week. Put over 100 rounds through it. Cleaned it after every 30 rounds or so to get a good break in. Clean barrels will scatter the shots but they tighten up after a mag or two. Im getting 4" groupings at 50 yards with mine. Only one malfunction that is magazine related. Will accept 8 round mags and will chamber hollow points with aftermarket 8 round mags, wont do it with the factory 7. All in all, damn good gun. Its replaced my SD40 as my EDC. Im astonished with its accuracy and range. Buy one guys, you wont regret it. Its perfect for any occasion.
Just bought a RIA 10 mm M 1911 for 409 dollars , this gun is a good gun for the price , have a lot of trouble with trigger finger with arthritis and can't shoot lot of my pistols and hate that, the 4 pound trigger pull on this pistol makes me happy I can shoot it, even being 10 mm , love this gun and price. Great Video 👍
Sounds like a nice one 👍 Thank you.
I have the RIA/Armscor 1911 A2 Hi-cap 45 ACP 13+1 double stack magazine (10 in CA). Heavy with thick grips but quite accurate and reliable.
You do great reviews! Very knowledgeable, and very thorough of the details.
Thanks so much man. Means a lot from you, because you do good videos yourself!
Great video, my boys bought me a rock island 1911 A-1 ,45 . I’m the same way you talked about, I couldn’t afford one and my son’s knew I wanted one and they got it for me. I’ve seen other reports on this gun and haven’t heard anything bad about it. Thanks
If somebody gives me gun,I will keep it forever.i try to give my family guns for Christmas.
Remember that many original 1911 A1 pistols were made by companies other than Colt. Great review. I like your 03 A3.
Very true. Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video.
Hell singer sewing company made some and those are very sought after big big bucks.
@@angelvalle9963 I had a Singer and an Ithaca. Wished I still had them.
I just got my Tarsis/SDS 1911A1 yesterday, and I'm well impressed with it. It shoots flawlessly, and is dead-on accurate. The only thing I intend to change is the trigger, as the military trigger is a bit too short for me. Other than that, it's EDC-ready as is.
Cool. I'm glad you like yours. I really like mine as well. Its hard to believe these are only 330-340. Seems like a great value.
How much did u Pay for it
@@johncabaniss4338 By the time I paid shipping insurance, it was a total of $363. Local shops in my area are charging $429 to $450 for them, pre-tax.
Think about it. The 1911 has been around since the Titanic and still is a great design
I agree. 👍
@@2aEdu Yeah , that man servant (bodyguard) to Cal, Roses fiance, had a pretty sweet nickel plated Colt .
Those holes are for mag base pad attachment if you want one. Mags with lanyard loops are WW I spec.
I remember from gun annuals and price guides that I have/had from well over a decade ago that there was a company making replicas of the original 1911, and also a double stack 14-round magazine version that was otherwise intended to replicate the original.
I own my uncles M 1911. He carried it as his sidearm as a Navy pilot in the Pacific theatre during WW II. I have the original holster, spare mag pouch and belt. It shoots fantastic. My buddy shot it in competition and was quite successful with it. It was manufactured around 1939.
I put the video on pause and just purchased my own for 270, my first 1911
Bought one today from primary firearms. 1st impression is great. can't wait to shoot in the range.
Cool! I like mine for sure 👍
Good video. When I got out of the Army in 1972 I waited a year and then joined the National Guard in 1973 and stayed in for 10 years. The last 1911 I fired was a WWII or older one. Accuracy, near zero but when you shot it it was like singing shake, rattle and roll. The slide and barrel were shot. I am like you, I have saved but the price for an original keeps running away from my savings. I am going to wait for your review before buying this. Thanks for the heads up.👍🇺🇸🤙😃. I don’t like the Turkish government either and obama did a whole lot of damage.👍
Had my FFL order one of these for me yesterday. Very close clone, and for the price, it's close enough. I'm a Vietnam buff and I love this because I can shoot the crap out of it and keep the wear and tear off my colt 1911.
Cool. I hope you like it. I agree with you, and that's why I bought mine. I'm a milsurp buff myself. And this one I can shoot and not worry!
Wear and tear ??? This gun is a tank. Colt well not fail in ur lifetime ,,
Great video. This is my 3rd or 4th video of yours and again man i like the genuine knowledge and laid back approach. And i also appreciate you responding to my comment on the last video too. Thanks again for hanging out with us
Thank you. I'm glad you like my stuff. 👍 I enjoy hanging out with you all too. I like sharing some knowledge too.
Great video! I owned an AutoOrdnance GI M1911A1 and this version from Turkey looks exactly like it. I paid about $350. for it 25 or 30 years ago. Looks like you got a great value. Looking forward to seeing how it worked out at the range. God bless
Thank you. I do feel this is a great value. I did a followup video with me shooting it here: th-cam.com/video/2ixfF7y6468/w-d-xo.html
I also posted a video on this pistol last night with some more thoughts on it. th-cam.com/video/fVQNAmiqfWE/w-d-xo.html
God bless you too.
I've got the Colt WWI 1911 remake, and the Tisas 1911A1 sits right next to it here. That's how good the Tisas is. It's not Carbonia Blue like my Colt, but the A1's were not finished the same as the WWI Colts. I don't think there is a better A1 repro out there. The grips are the only thing, but they can be changed for under 20 clams. I did get the 9mm version, (I know, I know) simply because I'm saving my .45 stash for the long run because the 1911 is not the only gun I have that eats it, and 9mm is half the price now. You got a good gun there that will last three lifetimes.
I fired the original 1911 in the Marine Corps in the 70s and I loved it I was in the Target they were training me I have been wanting one for yours I just fired the Kimber 1911 real knife gun but it was $1,100 I can't afford that but I want a 1911 and I think this might be the one
I would love an original USGI 1911. I just can't afford one right now. This one is great for the money!
Just discovered your channel today. If you haven't already done so, I personally recommend the other Zig/Tisas/Regent/Zenith firearms for review. Recently I took a chance on their stainless steel PC1911 and it is a great looking gun. It shoots well out of the box and has upgraded features like ambi safeties and Novak-style sights. And a rail. Bought it new for under $500.
Cool. I am familiar with many of the Turkish Pistols. I have a MC 28 which has an issue out of the box, but I have heard generally great things about the Turkish imports.
Appreciate your honest review, man. God bless you.
Thank you, and God bless you too.
Good review bro. If you ever get an original 1911A1 encourage you to shoot it often. They have earned a reputation for being fragile because of the way these guns were modified by target shooters in the 60s. In reality they are tough beyond belief, rarely jam (I can't ever remember one of mine jamming with ball ammo), work everytime. It's a shame the collectors have wrecked the opportunity for everyone to afford one.
Thank you. I have heard the old ones are fragile. What you are saying makes sense though. I hope to get one someday. It does suck how expensive they are.
Turkey firearms are solid. I Own a Canik that’s reliable and cost effective for a full size 9mm. I also already own an original 19111A1 from WWII, but seeing your video might make me revisit the SDS model at the price. My 1943 1911A1 gets shot every couple years at the family reunions. Still a very accurate weapon after all those years.
Yeah they seems to be. I have a Canik too. That's is cool you have a real USGI. I still can't believe this SDS is this cheap. Shooting update video on it coming soon.
Thanks for the review. I have one of these as well. The biggest difference between this 1911 and a USGI issued gun is the ejection port. The ejection port on the TISAS 1911 is cut too low, unlike a USGI port. The TISAS is not as low as say a Springfield Armory 1911, but it is still lower then it should be. Oh and the TISAS is not a 70 or 80 (the 70 has a split barrel bushing and the 80 has firing pin safety), its a USGI spec which precedes the 70.
No prob. Thanks for the info. The lower cut ejection port is probably to help with more reliable ejection...I would assume. I didn't realize that it was different. After this video, I took it apart and figured it was a 70 series, with no firing pin block. But I see what you mean about it being a clone of USGI ( pre 70)
I appreciate it.
Thanks for the Video! I used to carry a USGI .45 as an U.S.Army MP. We then went to the M-9 Beretta. I have ordered this for $339.95 (before tax, shipping and handling) from Classic Firearms and am anxiously awaiting its delivery! Can't wait to be reunited with my first-love pistol!
Its amazing. Solid and tight fit on everything..only thing that sucks is price for ammo vs price on a 9mm cause this thing is super fun to shoot and keep clean. I painted the half dime front post white. Only the facing where you see. But yea..cant get enough of this forged well made m11911
Also. The barrel has a very wide throat to accept various kinds of loads and the ejection port is widened.
No prob. That is awesome you will be reunited with your former service pistol model. This one is pretty much a direct USGI clone. I see they did raise the price 10 since I bought mine, but still a good deal. I also like the Beretta 92(m9). I hope you like your SDS 1911. Come back and let us know how it does.
It is an amazing pistol. Cant believe the price. 👍
I noticed that too. I have run steel and brass through mine, with no probs yet.
Good review and the price range is very exceptional! They say "you get what you pay for" and in some cases that may be true. Depending on how this gun holds up over time at the range will define that! Good Luck with it!
Thank you. Yeah I hear you on that, but this one sure seems like it was well worth the price so far. I won't put a lot of rounds through it, but the fact that it looks so authentic, is a big plus for me too. Thanks. I have also posted 3 more videos on this, including me shooting it.
Since so many people have a "favorite" in their opinion, type of grip panel; I'm guessing Tisas just came as close as they wanted to try and decided to let the customer put on whatever style to customize it to their own preference
Yes. I think you are exactly right. 👍
Great review. It's kinda funny, plain jane GI style Tisas Zig 1911's have been around for years and they were regarded as junk but the reception to these parkerized versions with the historical rollmarks have been pretty positive.
Thanks man. I never really was into the Tisas 1911 in the past. I just wasn't really familiar with them. This is my first one. I bought it because I wanted the historical look to go with my milsurp collection. I have now shot this one a couple times and it has been great so far. Can't speak to longevity because I do not have many rounds through it. But I'm happy because this didn't cost much more than a non firing display replica. 👍
Really, like your, video on the 1911 tisas pistol.stay strong, keep it up.
Thank you!
Bought same pistol 100 percent reliable I wish my colt 1911 built in the 1980s was working this good had to send a lot of hours to make it right for 500 dollars in the 1989 money very disappointed
My SDS has been good so far too.👍 I only have one other 1911, so I do not have a lot of experience with them.
Nicely done dude! I already set my eyes on the SDS 1911 😎thanks to you 👍. Keep up with the great work you do!
Thank you. I like My SDS. I will try to keep it up.
I bought this gun and was very impressed. Nice and tight. Shoots better than a lot of $1,000+ guns I've shot. Was going to wish for better sight options but the way she shoots I really can't complain. I will say the color sucks but for $399 I'm not gonna say much.
Dude, you are great !
Yeah an 80 series for (safety ) Have a demilitarized version my Dad carried in the Philippines at 19 years old.
Made me think of him !
Thanks !
Thank you! That is cool you have your Dad's old pistol. A keepsake for sure. 👍You are welcome.
What a beauty and a steal for $299. Palmetto State Armory has these on sale all the time.
Gunna give in and order one. The price is too good to pass up for a 1911. I have 2 ww2 colts that I don’t want to shoot. This will be perfect to blast rather then my collector pieces. I have a colt 1911a1 that I paid colt to do the history search on it showed it was made in December of 43’ and has the lanyard loop built into the gun and not in the mag. Looks like a nice copy.
Yeah I hear you. This one you can enjoy on the range without the worries of breaking one of your classics. From what I understand the ejection port is wider on this SDS, which is a good thing for reliability, but doesn't look exactly the same. But for the money close enough.
Outstanding attention to detail on your review. Keep up the great work!
Thank you. I like to do rather detailed reviews. I appreciate the encouragement.
There something about looking down the pipe of a 45 great review
I agree! Thank you. 👍
One day the U.S. army delivered a case of green 1911 a1 . To the gunsmith on a danish fort . Didn't even get signature or inventory . Just in for a tune- up . ( late 80' )
Looks like you got a great deal. Can’t wait for the shooting review! 😉
Glad I found this one too, I've already decided that the next semiauto pistol I get will be either a 1911 or a Beretta 92 FS. It'll probably be a 1911 just because an SDS is more affordable, but I really like everything about a 92 FS just haven't ever shot one or any 1911. I guess I should shoot them each first then decide what to buy:)
Enjoyed the video the Turkey made 1911 M1 look super nice I have to get one thank you for the information......
No prob 👍
They are all Series 70 and you missed the best part except for the price, the frame and slide are forged and the barrel is hammer forged. I have a 1911 Tanker and the barrel is ramped too and it's very, very accurate even with the A1 sights and a drop of neon orange nail polish on the front sight. I have many 1911's and bought mine just to see what all the talk was about, was I surprised. It's 2023 and my 1911 Tanker cost me $410, there isn't a better deal out there and it's as good or better than my 1980 vintage Colt Commander Series 70 in stainless steel and I'm not kidding. I have a Gold Cup, a Delta Elite and 2 custom built IDPA Stock Class 1911's and a custom 38 Super and my Tisas 911 hangs right with them. Incredible. I do CCW my Tank Commander, the extra weight doesn't bother me and double taps and follow up's are a breeze, I'd take it anywhere.
Kentucky gun co has the full size one for 330 bucks with free shipping right now, I'm thinking real hard about ordering one
I appreciate a nice and honest review. I liked his review.
No problem. I enjoyed doing it. Thanks
Nice video brother. I just ordered mine. I’m excited.
Thank you. I hope you like yours 👍
Tisas Model 1911A1 U.S. Army.
My review, the finish is not true Parkerizing, it is a coating. The ejection port is lower than a USGI pistol. The plastic grips aren't up to G.I standards and are cut for a ambidextrous thumb safety. There is no groove on the mainspring housing on the area above the lanyard loop. The loop is bigger than your USGI loop, so it doesn't affect anything. The magazine well has a small bevel, where G.I pistols don't. My pistol has a nice trigger pull and is very tight, like a National Match pistol. The recoil spring guide doesn't have the punch hole. I paid $395.00 and tax. The Tisas is made in Turkey by a military contractor, It comes in a cardboard box with users manual, one magazine, barrel brush and cleaning rod. It is imported by SDS Imports and has a 5 year warranty from date of purchase.
Good review my dude love that clone!
Thank you!
Very impressive and it's a good looking example as well. I agree with your views on Turkey but I would like to get one of those for sure. Thanks for the video. 👍🇺🇸 oh yeah I am a new subscriber, enjoy your reviews.
Great video review! I ordered mine last night.
Thank you. I hope you like it.
Mt Colt Delta Elite was a smooth gun as well. chambers in 10MM.
Nice! 👍
Sorry I missed this one. I like Turkey shooters. The best way a country can improve is from the bottom up and through capitol enterprise. Mark Richardson
Yeah, I'm a veteran of the Gulf war, i don't know much about small-arms. i carried the 1911 and M-9 after 1994. On rare occasion it would be the AR or a dumb 12 gauge.. I have no idea what it's called AR15,etc.. To be honest, I was on submarines 90-98. Did some serious shit, but like really, who could counter us? Not like we were ever directly shot at underwater. Anyway, I'm voluntarily self-quarantining tonight and very bored. Bottom line, my most successful competitive firearm has been a Series '70 Govt. model. I have less than a grand invested, but shoots better than 1911's three times the cost. Really minimal mods. Most of the money went into the sights and trigger. 'Nite all. Just expressing my opinion.
Godshall , Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your videos great channel
You are welcome. Thank you. 👍
You do a grate job keep up the good vids
Thank you 👍
I love it brother. I have one at my FFL to pick up Monday. Sure ain't none to be found for even 350 now, but hey, I want it lol. Thanks
Cool👍 I hope you like it.
Good informative video. Wishing you much success!
Thank you. 👍 I'm glad you liked the video.
Respect to your buddy , may he rest in peace , well see him again soon
Dude you pointed that gun straight at me!! Lol... That's a nice 1911, especially for the money.
Some people get all pissed. Thinking I'm in the same room or something. Glad you were able to laugh about it. lol Nobody is on the other side of the camera when I film. I agree. This pistol is very nice for the money.
@@2aEdu Really? Jesus that's weird.
@@everready19373 Yeah man. I get at least 5 a day saying I'm muzzling them in person by pointing towards a webcam.
Great review on your part. Suggest you ride the slide on an empty mag. Loaded mag., let her slap.
Thank you. Dropping the slide on an empty chamber doesn't hurt the 1911. Browning designed it to do that per military specification.
OUTSTANDING brother
Thank you!
looks awesome! I definitely want to see how she shoots...
March 2023. Rural King special this gun $319! Great deal while they last!
i like my ATI 1911 with the threaded barrel and rail.
Cool. I have heard those are good too. 👍
By far my absolute favorite
👍🇺🇸
This gun is much better than some cheaper imports that are made out of Bamboo .
I really like it!
Wow a really nice pistol! You've convinced me! I think I may go buy one ,if I can find one...😕
It is a nice pistol. I'm glad I bought mine. 👍
This is in stock in 2021 right now at kygunco part number SDS-1911A1A45. 389$ fyi.
Good job brother. I'm really enjoying your channel.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you.
I bet you after bead blasting that slide it'd be the best clean canvass for a new gunsmith working on finish techniques. I'd love to have one just to redo it with a deep DEEP polished blue job. Like pre-WWII german lugers with the bluing shine so deep you get scared of hights looking into it!?!?!?! I wanna do that.
every other person whos review ive seen on this has experienced hammer bite immediately. enjoyed the video though,
Thanks. I guess it depends how they grip it.
Great, great job! Thanks
Thank you!
@@2aEdu...more than a month later - I like mine even more than I did in the beginning of my ownership. I just can't believe what it is and how it performs. The smoothness of the radii everyplace I touch. JMB? Just another amazing design. I've never heard this before, but I the style of the pistol is a nod to the art-deco style of the time. Note the smooth transitions from the scalloping around the trigger, all the way up to the muzzle. If you hold it at arm's length, you will see three steps. Beautiful.
BTW, I agree with you on the politics! 👍I will not penalize innocent citizens who are stuck with a bad leader.
A well made video. I enjoyed it, Sir.
Cool. Thank you!
Its actually Sig grey cerokoted. SDS themselves told me that.
Great video and content!
Very informative and complete review.
Thank you. 👍
1911 is the year the us adopted it for military use
The 1911, yes. But not the 1911 A1. The A1 was adopted in 1926.
you'll get your gun sooner or later, don't get discouraged
Yeah. Thanks 👍. This SDS is good though. I'm good with this one until I can get a USGI.
Great video. I've seen these advertised and was wondering about them, now I want one. They look like the 1911's I carried in active duty. I'm hoping that you're wrong about them being a series 80, if they turned out to be series 70 they would be perfect.
Thank you. Yes, these are the original style. Series 70, or technically USGI. Pre 70. They do not have the drop safety in the slide. This was the initial unboxing. I had not disassembled yet when I did this video.
This gun forged or cast. I know Springfield Armory's 1911 slide and frame are forged, barrel might be too, looking at this SDS, RIA and SA's Defender 1911
Forged frame , slide, and barrel
Great review and I will definitely pick one up it’s just sad that an American company can’t make a reproduction like this I have my grandfathers 45s from WWII and there just an amazing piece of history and really family history my great grandfather shot it when my grandfather got back home my dad shot it Iv shot it and my kids will shoot it that’s 4 generations of my family that these firearms have passed through or whatever just really really cool to me
Thank you. Yeah it is a shame they cant make one here. But if they did it would be 2,000. So....IDK. I agree with you on how cool the original ones are. Passed down through the family, and generations of shooting them. That is awesome. You are lucky to have that gun, and its memories with family, and the greatest generation. 👍
Nice concise review 👍
Thank you
Thinking about buying my first pistol any suggestions I'm thinking a glockmodel
Lots of good choices. You cant go wrong with a Glock. It depends on what you are going to use it for. Concealed carry, bedside gun. Range gun?
I got a p80 g17 !.... it's a perfect, full size, 9mm build your own, with PLENTY of accessories !!!!
JJ. First hand gun . go-ahead and get a top of line gun , and one that is as expensive as you can afford. Because if you don't it will not be long before you will be loving the handgun world. Myself I want them all . I. Would love to have a Cold Python. Also Smith &Wesson would be a bad mistake to overlook . plenty of fine S&W revolvers that would be awesome to have as a first to anyone looking to get started with. Try a model 17, or 617 . both are 22lr. The 17 is blue and 617 is stainless. I own both examples and they are both a dream to shoot & hold . anyways good luck and happy hunting.
Think about what you want for caliber capacity and size. Then narrow your results down and see which guns are most reliable/affordable for you
Thanks so much for the information.
You are welcome
I like it..I have not shot a 1911 that I did not like.However I have ran into some that has sorry Customer Service like KIMBER...
Yeah I like 1911s. Kimber......I've heard their cust services stories.....eeeeks, .
Great review of a great pistol. 👍
Thank you!
@@2aEdu You're very welcome.
This is in stock in 2021 right now at kygunco part number SDS-1911A1A45. 389$ fyi.
That is awesome!
Well, I just looked up what I was thinking about and it turns out it was made by a far better established company than I remembered, specifically the oldest in America - Springfield Armory. The high capacity version has a 13-round magazine capacity, not 14, and given that it has things like titanium parts, it may not be quite as much of a replica as I thought, not to mention that it seems to have A1 features rather than those of the original 1911. Apparently you can still find them for around $400 new.
@@jeannieheard1465 I was talking about what I said a few comments down this very page:
"I remember from gun annuals and price guides that I have/had from well over a decade ago that there was a company making replicas of the original 1911, and also a double stack 14-round magazine version that was otherwise intended to replicate the original."
Very nice! Sounds smooth
Thanks man. It is smooth.
Awesome man. Some day. I love thre idea of it being a recreation of the real thing. I just wish it came with an agreed finish. Battleworn as they say.
Yeah, thats what I like about it too. The finish looks ok. I think parkerizing has to get old to have that classic greenish old school look to it.
Hey man, $330.00 and watching you demo the thing. I can say, that I’m game. I’d buy one. Just as soon; as me, the money, and the 1911, get together. I’ll be the happy owner of a 1911 A1 US Army Tisas USGI Replica .45 ACP.
This was few months ago. Right now, I would expect to pay more for it. As with all guns.
2a Edu I realize that, but with the videos you have put out about it. I’d pay the extra it may cost, when I get the money for it. Besides being disabled, and living on a limited income. It takes a while before, I can purchase new pistols. Be Safe!
I just bought this gun today
Cool 👍
Great review!
Thanks. I appreciate it.
Want a no nonsense 45acp reliable truck gun. Been watchin reviews in between football this weekend. Hadnt seen anything negative about the tisas m1. Can get them for $385. Gone purchase one tomorrow. THANKS
Cool!
What sort of oil should I use for the Parkerized paint? just got one today as my first fire arm.
I own a number of upper level 1911s and I agree that these are a phenomenal value and very well made. As to the Series 70 or Series 80 question, it's neither.
I was under the impression they were patterned after series 80...
@@jblcva Negative. The Colt term Series 70 did not exist prior to 1970 and Series 80 did not exist prior to 1980. The Tisas is not patterned after either. It is patterned after the M1911A1 as used by the U.S. military during WWII. It does not include the firing pin safety system used on Series 80-style 1911s.
@Jay Dee didnt Colt give up in the 4 lug barrel bushing that made the series 70 what is was? They had issues with it and reverted back to the standar bushing. So basically there is no difference except for "updated" features such as sights and flat mainspring housing (which is actually the original style). Internally they are the same
@@vinceruland9236 I've heard rumors of issues, but never any actual accounts, so I'm not sure. I bought my base model, mil-spec style Series 70 (post collet bushing) and my base model mil-spec style Series 80, new at the same time. If you didn't look at the roll marks, the only obvious difference is that the Series 70 still had the arched mainspring housing and the Series 80 was flat.
